Saint-Gobain Gyproc Gypframe Extra Deep Channel, 3000mm 72DC50, Heavy-Duty Track for High-Rigidity Partitions

It's a galvanised steel metal framing channel used to build drywall partitions and ceilings. The 3000 mm length features an extra-deep profile with 72 discontinuous studs and a weight rating above 50 kg, designed to support plasterboard and create robust, airtight partitions when paired with Gyproc fasteners and accessories.

Key specs: length 3000 mm; extra-deep design; 72 discontinuous studs; weight rating > 50 kg; galvanised steel construction with perforations for airflow and acoustics; groove and notch system for easy plasterboard installation; compatible with tongue-and-groove fasteners and drywall screws.

The extra-deep profile provides greater rigidity and load distribution for heavier partitions, improves stability over long spans, and works with special groove fasteners to create an airtight, sturdy drywall system with enhanced sound performance.

Ideal for drywall division walls and ceilings where a robust, load-bearing partition is needed—such as office partitions, commercial interiors, or multi-room spaces requiring solid acoustic performance and structural integrity.

Plan the layout, cut to length as needed, align channels with the desired studs, and secure using appropriate mechanical fasteners. Use the built-in groove and notch system to seat plasterboard, then attach drywall sheets with standard drywall screws or tongue-and-groove fasteners. Complete the wall with compatible metal wall angles and accessories as required.

Pair with plasterboard sheets, drywall screws, tongue-and-groove fasteners, metal wall angles, and Gyproc-compatible framing accessories to ensure a tight, acoustically sound partition.

Handle galvanised steel with care to avoid sharp edges; wear gloves and eye protection during cutting and installation; ensure proper ventilation during work; follow local building codes and installation guidelines for metal-framed partitions.

For longer spans or higher loads, the 6000 mm Gyproc Gypframe channel offers a similar system with extended length. For shorter installations, the 2500 mm version provides a compact option with the same core features. See examples below for working product pages on Fepy:

Use this channel for medium-to-large drywall partitions requiring solid load capacity (over 50 kg), good acoustic performance, and airtight joints. It’s well-suited for office fit-outs, retail partitions, and residential drywall projects where durability and stability are priorities.

Assess the wall span, required load capacity, and desired acoustic performance. Use 3000 mm channels for standard room partitions, cutting to fit where necessary, and combine with compatible plasterboard and fasteners. Always follow site measurements and standard framing practices.

The Gyproc Gypframe system offers a robust, long-lasting framing solution with proven performance for drywall partitions. When evaluating value, consider load requirements, acoustic goals, and the total system cost (channels plus fasteners and boards) rather than just the channel price.
