Question 2

What are the exact specifications of this CW Stud?

Accepted Answer

Profile: 50x35 mm; thickness: 0.6 mm; length: 3000 mm; material: galvanised steel; suitable for walls, ceilings, plasterboard and drywall installations; corrosion-resistant.

Question 3

Is this CW Stud suitable for damp or humid environments?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The galvanised coating provides corrosion resistance, making it suitable for damp and humid environments typically found in bathrooms, kitchens, and some commercial spaces.

Question 4

Which plasterboard and ceiling systems will it work with?

Accepted Answer

It is compatible with standard plasterboard and drywall systems and is suitable for suspended ceilings that use Knauf profiles and tracks.

Question 5

How do I install this CW Stud?

Accepted Answer

Plan the layout, cut the stud to length as needed, attach to wall or ceiling tracks using appropriate self-tapping screws, ensure the stud is plumb and level, and then fix plasterboard/drywall to the stud using screws at recommended spacing.

Question 6

What are the recommended stud spacing and fixing methods?

Accepted Answer

Typical stud spacing is about 400–600 mm apart, depending on plasterboard thickness and project requirements. Fix studs using self-tapping screws into the tracks and ensure they are correctly aligned and plumb.

Question 7

How does this 0.6 mm, 3000 mm CW Stud compare to the 0.8 mm variant?

Accepted Answer

The 0.8 mm variant is thicker and offers higher rigidity and load-bearing capacity but is heavier. Both share the same profile and can be used with standard plasterboard, but the 0.8 mm version is chosen for higher structural stiffness. Compare at: https://fepy.com/knauf-cw-stud-50x35x0-8mm-3000mm

Question 8

How does this 0.6 mm CW Stud 3000 mm compare to the 0.6 mm 2500 mm variant?

Accepted Answer

The 2500 mm variant is shorter, which affects the spans you can cover in a single stud run and may require more joints. For shorter runs, use: https://fepy.com/knauf-cw-stud-50x35x0-6mm-2500mm

Question 9

Can I cut this stud to fit non-standard dimensions?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Use metal cutting tools like tin snips or a metal saw to cut to length. Wear eye protection and gloves, and deburr edges after cutting.

Question 10

What plasterboard thickness is recommended with this CW Stud?

Accepted Answer

This stud works well with standard plasterboard and drywall thicknesses, commonly 9.5 mm or 12.5 mm; always align with your project’s board thickness and spacing.

Question 11

Are there any safety considerations or best practices I should follow?

Accepted Answer

Ensure proper PPE when handling metal studs, work with protective eyewear, cut in well-ventilated area, and follow local building codes for stud installation and fire safety.
