AB-716 Angle Head Restraint

The AB-716 is an angled, head restraint for the top / and of block and stud walls.

The top (and sometimes edges) of a wall may require support. Mason AB-716 channel incorporates closed cell, low density foam which provides support while preventing a solid connection between the wall and the building structure. In this way it ensures acoustic isolation.

If you would like to order or learn more about this product please contact Mason UK’s acoustic engineers.
