2 GenieClip Innovative and reliable sound isolation PRODUCT OVERVIEW Engineered for superior acoustical performance in reducing the transmission of airborne and impact sound through wall and floor-ceiling assemblies. The is a unibody molded rubber and galvanized steel mount used to attach gypsum wallboard (GWB) to either wall or floor-ceiling assemblies. Made from recycled components, and engineered to allow reduction in assembly weight, the GenieClip contributes to LEED certified buildings. The is easy and fast to install using standard steel furring channel, and is extremely stable when held in place with a single fastener. There is nothing to adjust or site fit. The furring channel is simply snapped into the and the gypsum wallboard can be immediately installed. 2 Pliteq GenieClip

ENGINEERED TO WORK Only one screw required to attach GenieClip RST to wood or metal wall studs or floor joists Engage standard 25 gauge drywall furring channel into either claw,

Resilient channel is commonly short circuited, whereas the is impossible to short circuit.

Pressure Level (db) 80 70 50 outperforms RC-1 at 100 Hz by 4-5 db. This enhanced low frequency performance is the key to higher ratings and better quality construction.
