Gypframe metal stands for quality, strength and durability through a range of components that provide the backbone for our tested and warranted wall, ceiling, lining and encasement systems.
The unique manufacturing process, including the patented
UltraSteel™ double helix work hardening process, means that Gypframe metal components are:
• Precision engineered for premium quality
• Lighter to carry and handle
• Easier to cut and fit
• Rigidised for extra strength
• Allow enhanced screw fixing and retention
• The only metal components to carry the
• SpecSure system performance warranty when
installed in our proprietary systems
Benefits of Gypframe:
• Galvanised steel that will not warp or rust
• Easy to cut on site, saving time and creating no mess
• Limited waste - any off-cuts can be recycled
• Self locking studs and channels, that are quick to install
• Improved screw retention and strip out strength
• Improved resistance to screw pull-out
• Lightweight – easy to move around site and build to greater height
Manufacturing Standards:
All Gypframe components are rigourously tested to internationally recognised product standards and conform to.
• British Standard BS 7364
• European Standard EN 14195
• American Standard ASTM C645

Gyproc offers a comprehensive bespoke service for the
Gyproc plasterboard and Gypframe metal product ranges.
Whether you require a non-standard length, alternative gauge or other specification change, we’ll try to provide you with the best solution for your project. Specifying bespoke metal lengths can speed up construction as there is no need to trim them to the correct length, and will save waste on site, helping with site safety and cost reduction.

To understand a Gypframe metal product, follow these simple steps:
Step 1
The first 2 or 3 digits refer to the component width
Step 2
The letter refers to the product type i.e.,
S = Stud, C = Channel
Step 3
The last two digits indicate the metal thickness or gauge in mm i.e., 0.50mm

Product Characteristics
Used as the vertical support in wall framing. A range of widths, lengths and thicknesses depending on requirements for strength, height, impact resistance and sound insulation.
Manufactured using patented, UltraSteel™ technology giving a rigidised surface for additional strength. Service cut-outs are also placed along the spine of Gypframe ‘C’ Studs providing easy routing of services through the partition.
Product Characteristics
These studs are the strongest available in the Gypframe range. They allow for increased partition height, without increasing the partition width, and provide improved impact resistance. Commonly used in ShaftWall, Gyplyner IWL,
GypWall QUIET IWL and other GypWall systems. Service cut-outs are also spaced along the spine of the Gypframe ‘I’
Stud, providing easy routing of services through a partition.

Product Characteristics
Gypframe channels are used for securing Gypframe ‘C’ Studs at floor and ceiling junctions. Gypframe Channels (C) are used for partition heights of up to 4200mm and are manufactured using the patented UltraSteel™ process giving a rigidised surface for better screw holding and increased tensile strength.
Product Characteristics
Gypframe channels are used for securing Gypframe ‘C’ Studs at floor and ceiling junctions. Gypframe Deep Channels (DC) are used for partition heights between 4200mm and
8000mm or in situations where deflection heads or improved impact resistance are required. Deep Channels are manufactured using the patented UltraSteel™ process giving a rigidised surface for better screw holding and increased tensile strength.
