Rockfon is expanding its suspended ceiling grid systems with a new offering: Rockfon Chicago Metallic® Drywall Grid. The new drywall grid product is being introduced to provide easier, faster, consistent, high-quality installation and contributes to greater overall performance.
New and improved features include a patented screw stop with a wider knurled face, which prevents screw spinout; increased knurled facing that improves screw grab for faster, more efficient installation; additional slotting used for main runners and cross tees supports Type G and Type F light fixture compatibility; increased strength and torsional rigidity; and reduced main runner fire breaks.
The grid is manufactured with G40 steel for durability, and backed by a 40-year warranty.
The ceiling system is suitable for use in geographies such as California and Canada where systems must withstand greater seismic loads and meet stricter code requirements.
It is perfect for commercial applications, including hospitals, hospitality, retail, lobbies, department stores, galleries, residential high-rise spaces, schools and office spaces.
