QuietRock® 530RF

Key Benefits

  • 5/8” sound damped gypsum panel with radio frequency (RF) shielding, a key component in our RF System

  • SCIF application approved – RF shielding tested in accordance with IEEE-STD-299

  • Same benefits as QR530 plus RF shielding providing a single product application for RF shielding, sound control, fire resistance, and impact resistance

  • Fully grounded metal to metal connected room without requiring metal or foil underlayment

Product Description : sound control with radio frequency shielding

QuietRock 530RF is a high-performance sound damping gypsum panel that is typically used in the construction of high security environments such as SCIF rooms, government offices, and data centers where radio frequency disturbances can impact security, data, and equipment.  Use of the complete QuietRF® System is required to achieve the RF shielding: QuietRock 530RF, QuietSeam RF and RF Tape.  

QuietRock 530RF is UL Certified for use on several fire-resistance rated assemblies, provides resistance to impact in high traffic areas, and can provide added shear resistance.  The panels install and finish like other paper faced gypsum board  but require a saw to cut.
