Buy Resilient Channel < Easy • 2026 >

Resilient channel (RC) is a cost-effective metal framing component designed to decouple drywall from studs or joists, significantly reducing sound transmission. While highly effective when installed correctly—achieving STC ratings up to 62—it is prone to "short-circuiting" if screws are driven through the channel and into the underlying framing.

Resilient channels are typically sold in 8-foot or 12-foot lengths, either individually or in bulk packs. Resilient Channel Systems - ClarkDietrich buy resilient channel
