Description
Manhattan WhisperGuard IsoMax Isolation Clip
Professional Wall Isolation at Its Most Effective
The Manhattan WhisperGuard IsoMax Isolation Clip is a professional-grade resilient mounting clip designed to isolate furring channel from the primary building structure, including timber studs, blockwork, and concrete slabs. More effective than traditional offset stud construction, the IsoMax Clip allows a standard wall assembly to achieve an STC55 rating with considerably less complexity and cost than double-stud or staggered-stud alternatives. For any serious home theatre, listening room, or recording space installation where wall isolation is a fundamental construction requirement, the WhisperGuard IsoMax Clip is the professional’s choice.
Superior Performance Over Offset Stud Construction
Offset and staggered stud wall construction has long been used as a method of reducing sound transmission through wall assemblies, but it demands significant additional space, material, and construction effort. The IsoMax Isolation Clip achieves superior isolation results within a standard wall construction footprint by introducing a resilient decoupling element between the furring channel and the building structure. This breaks the rigid connection through which vibrational energy would otherwise travel freely, intercepting structure-borne sound at its source and preventing it from radiating into adjacent spaces.
Straightforward Path to STC55 Compliance
The IsoMax Clip provides a reliable and repeatable pathway to STC55 wall isolation ratings, making it suitable for both residential and commercial acoustic construction applications where compliance with specified sound transmission class performance is required. Its compatibility with standard furring channel and conventional wall framing systems means it can be incorporated into most construction programmes without significant changes to existing design or methodology, offering a practical and cost-effective route to a genuinely high-performance acoustic wall assembly.
Versatile Across Structure Types
The WhisperGuard IsoMax Isolation Clip is designed for use across a broad range of building structure types, including timber stud frames, concrete blockwork, and concrete slab construction. This versatility makes it equally at home in new build residential projects, commercial fit-outs, and renovation installations where acoustic isolation is being retrofitted into an existing structure. For installations requiring speaker resilient mounting rather than wall furring channel isolation, the WhisperGuard Isolation Mount with Unibrace L Bracket is the recommended complementary product.
