Metal C Stud 10
Metal C studs are key components in internal partition wall systems. Shaped like the letter ‘C’, these studs provide consistent structural strength and alignment across walls.
What is C metal stud?
C metal stud is a galvanised steel section with flanges on either side, configured to slot neatly into matching top and bottom U-tracks. Together, they create the framework for drywall or partition walls.
Metal C studs maintain their shape over time, which helps keep wall surfaces straight and stable. They are compatible with different plasterboard and insulation materials and are a practical choice for most wall projects.
What is metal C stud used for?
C stud metal framing is used to support non-load-bearing partitions and other lightweight framing applications, such as:
- Partition walls
- Lining and service walls
- Enclosures for risers and ducts
- Bulkheads and ceiling frames within MF systems
- Acoustic or fire-rated partitions, when paired with suitable boards
Types of C studs
The main difference between C studs lies in their width and length.
Available widths range from 50mm up to 146mm, and standard lengths are 2.4m to 4.2m. This broad variation makes it easy to match the correct stud size to the wall height and system requirements.
Wider or heavier-gauge studs provide extra rigidity for taller walls and door openings.
Narrower profiles are suitable for smaller partitions and domestic rooms.
Some systems, such as those supplied by British Gypsum (BG) or Libra Systems, may have slightly different dimensions. However, all serve the same purpose – providing a straight, strong, stable framework for plasterboard partitions.
