Product Description : Sound-Reducing Drywall with Radio Frequency (RF) Shielding

QuietRock® 530RF is a 5/8-inch sound-reducing drywall panel with radio frequency (RF) shielding designed for high-security environments where sound control and RF protection are required. Part of the Quiet® family of sound control products and a key component of the QuietRF® System, QuietRock 530RF is designed for applications such as SCIF rooms, government offices, and data centers.

QuietRock 530RF combines sound control, RF shielding, fire resistance, and impact resistance in a single panel and can provide added shear resistance. The complete QuietRF® System, including QuietRock 530RF, QuietSeam® RF, and QuietRF Tape, is required to achieve RF shielding. QuietRock 530RF installs and finishes like paper-faced gypsum board but requires a saw for cutting.
