Sag resistant
- Excellent sag resistance.
- Greater nail-holding power.
- Excellent working characteristics, improved score and snap properties reduce the need for rasping.
Gold Bond® Ceiling Board is a specialty gypsum board encased in 100% recycled paper with increased uniformity and integrity of its gypsum core, making its sag resistance equivalent to 5/8" Type X gypsum board.
This 1/2" Ceiling Board is specifically designed for ceilings where framing members are spaced up to 24" o.c. and a water-based texture will be used.
Advantages
