A237R Furring Channel Sound Isolation Clip
The Leading Acoustic Clip for Walls & Ceilings
The Resilmount® A237R is a high-performance, patented sound isolation clip engineered for the direct fastening of furring channels in acoustic wall assemblies and ceiling structures. Designed to break the path of structural and airborne sound transmission, this heavy-duty acoustic clip effectively decouples the drywall from the framing substrate, significantly boosting the Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of the assembly.
By isolating vibrations before they can pass through studs or joists, the A237R furring channel clip provides architects, acoustic consultants, and drywall contractors with a reliable, space-saving solution for multi-family residential, commercial, and high-end home theater projects across North America.
The Science of Resilient Sound Isolation
Unlike generic rubber pads that compress permanently and lose their dampening capabilities under load, the A237R resilient mount features a patented thermoplastic rubber element. This specialized element acts as a shock absorber, absorbing acoustic vibration and breaking up low-frequency impact noise.
The A237R acoustic mount features a unique sound cell design that guards against sound transferring into the body of the Resilmount. This strong column design minimizes the contact surface area with the structure or substrate it is fixed to and aids in absorbing and breaking up airborne sound at its transfer point.

- Universal Substrate Application: Designed for maximum versatility, the A237R acoustic clip can be used with any wood, steel, CMU (concrete masonry unit), or concrete application.
- Furring Channel Compatibility: The A237R acoustic furring channel clip can be used to suit both 7/8” and 1-1/2” furring channels (hat channels).
- Pre-Drilled Fastener Ready: The A237R sound isolation clip is provided with a convenient 1/4” hole to accommodate a wide variety of fasteners.
PAIR WITH STUDCO FURRING CHANNELS
The Resilmount A237R is designed to pair directly with 7/8” and 1-1/2” Studco Furring Channels. These sound isolation clips feature a unique locking system where furring channels are locked into place in only two steps.
Studco Furring Channels are manufactured in the USA from premium American steel at Studco’s manufacturing plant. Often referred to as hat channels, they are available in standard lengths of 10’ and 12’ and can be used as battens for concrete or masonry walls and ceiling assemblies. Studco’s Furring Channels are engineered for durability, are non-corrosive, and designed for easy installation.
By keeping manufacturing local, we provide American architects, structural engineers, and general contractors with fully traceable, domestic solutions that comply with strict municipal building codes, reduce jobsite lead times, and deliver predictable acoustic results.
