VIBRO CLIP – Resilient Sound Isolation Clip VLP

Vibro Clip Resilient Sound Isolation Clip VLP

VIBRO CLIP is a resilient sound isolation clip used to isolate acoustic floating wall & ceiling from main structure walls and ceilings. VIBRO CLIP creates a high STC (sound transmission classification) rating for your wall or ceiling assembly and offers an economical method to “float” your walls or ceilings. These isolation clips are used for vibration control of structure-borne noise and help build assemblies that will more effectively block airborne noise transmission.

To complete an envelope, secondary walls must be introduced with the same consideration given to mass and air gap as covered in the floor discussion.

Product Details

Purpose

To complete an envelope, secondary walls must be introduced with the same consideration given to mass and air gap as covered in the floor discussion. The best approach is resting these walls on the perimeter of the floating floor so the floor isolation system serves the walls as well. If this is not possible, the second choice is supporting the isolated wall on the structural slab with continuous rubber strip.

With its durable design, ease of installation, and proven acoustic benefits, VIBRO CLIP provides an advanced, reliable, and cost-effective solution for modern soundproofing needs.

VIBRO isolation clips are engineered with a natural neoprene grommet pad integrated with a threaded shaft, which connects to a central electroplated zinc mild steel bushing. The center bushing measures approximately 20 mm in length, featuring a 10 mm shaft section and a 21.5 mm end clip. The neoprene isolator itself has dimensions of 1 ½″ x ½″, providing durability and resilience for effective vibration control.

Designed for versatility, VIBRO CLIPs can be used in wood, steel, CMU (concrete masonry unit), or concrete wall and ceiling systems. Their primary function is to decouple gypsum board from the structural framing, thereby significantly improving acoustic isolation.

Each VIBRO CLIP has an acoustical design load capacity of 36 lbs per isolator, allowing it to support up to two layers of ⅝″ gypsum board when installed at maximum spacing of 24″ x 48″ on center. By fastening directly to the structure or framing, VIBRO CLIP minimize the transfer of sound and vibration into adjoining spaces, resulting in higher STC (Sound Transmission Class) and IIC (Impact Insulation Class) ratings for the overall assembly diesel engines.

VIBRO CLIP prevent buckling or overturning of tall or long walls.
Our general recommendation is spacing on four – foot centers both horizontally and vertically.
The maximum axial restraint rating is approximately 33% of the maximum assigned wall weight and extremely conservative.
Vertical resistance information is provided for checking embedment requirements in walls and shear or pullout forces on both ends of the VIBRO CLIP

The combination isolation wall clip assembly (VIBRO CLIP) Tolerances in dimensions are as per international standards.
