The Soundbreaker Bar is a resilient metal channel that decouples plasterboard from timber joists or stud frames, dramatically improving the wall soundproofing and ceiling soundproofing.
Its slim profile saves space, making it a popular choice for domestic soundproofing projects and for meeting Building Regulations Part E when paired with acoustic plasterboard.
- Soundproofing: Timber-joist ceilings and stud walls
- Noise type: Vibration and impact sounds
- Size: 75 mm (W) × 17 mm (D) × 3000 mm (L)
- Fixing method: Screws through pre-drilled edge; boards attach to corrugated flange
Soundbreaker Bar – Slimline Resilient Channel for Soundproofing
The 3m Soundbreaker Bar is a galvanised steel resilient channel designed to isolate plasterboard from timber stud walls and ceiling joists.
By breaking the direct connection between structural elements, it significantly reduces the transfer of airborne and impact noise through floors and walls.
Its lightweight, space-efficient profile makes it ideal for residential applications where maintaining room dimensions is important.
Often used in combination with acoustic plasterboard and insulation, Soundbreaker Bars form the foundation of high-performance soundproofing systems.
Whether you’re upgrading an existing room or building a new partition, this easy-to-install solution is trusted by professionals and DIYers alike to enhance acoustic performance with minimal loss of space.
