How It Works:
TMS Value Silent Sound Clips - A237 are sound isolation clips used to mechanically separate the connection points between drywall and the ceiling/wall structure. It creates an opportunity for drywall furring channel to be introduced in the building framing structure. When used with standard furring channel, A237 clips can be used to extend space between walls to allow for running pipes , electrical wires and/or insulation between the walls.
A237 Brackets are a cheaper option over A237R as there is no rubber isolation insert. They are a budget-friendly isolation clip that is ideal for projects where sound isolation is not critical but physical separation of the wall from the studs is necessary. They have been acoustically tested in wall systems and add assurance that your projects acoustical performance will improve substantially.
For a higher STC rating, see our TMS Silent Clips - A237R.
Can be used in conjunction with 7/8" or 1 1/2" furring channel for effective noise control. Installation is easy, simply replace standard fasteners with TMS Silent Brackets. Brackets have a 1/4" hole to fit a variety of fasteners.

How Many To Order:
Clips can be spaced up to 48" apart with spacing of up to 24" between channels. When using this spacing, divide the square footage of the area to be treated by 5. That will give a rough estimate of the amount of clips needed. In most cases you will need to compensate for being within 6" to walls/ceilings so we have found that calculating the squeare footage by 23% should get you close to the amount of clips needed. See Installation Tab above for layout digram.

|
Step 1: Review layout guidelines before starting installation of walls or ceilings. We suggest installing the ceiling first, before installing the walls. Step 2: Space Resilient Clips so as not to exceed 48" OC. Secure clips with a single fastener through the middle screw hole in the clip (Fig 2.1). Wood: Use #8 x 2-1/2" coarse thread screws Steel: Use #8, #10 or #12 x 1-5/8 Type s Self tapping screws Concrete: Use 3.16" x 2 1/4" Tapcon or equal anchor Step 3: Snap hat channel on clips (Fig 2.2) Step 4: The floor shims are critical to ensure best results. Place 1/4" shims on floor in front of sole plate (Fig 3.1). Install the first row of drywall vertically against the wall (Fig. 3.2). Attach drywall to channel following local building codes. Note: only remove the shims after all the gypsum board is completely screwed to all furring channels. Step 5: Use acoustical caulk around the entire perimeter of each wall (See Figure 3.3) |
