Product Information

Thickness: 10mm; approximately 8mm compressed

Sheet Dimensions: 10mm x 50mm x 1.37m

Area: 1.37 linear metres per single strip

Reduce impact noise where your floor meets the joists. Hush 10 Joist Strip forms a resilient cushion beneath the floor deck, cutting rigid contact with the joists to help limit sound transmission through the floor.

Made from 100% recycled materials, each acoustic strip is sold individually. Its 10mm thickness compresses to about 8mm in use, making it a practical choice for refurbishments where floor height is limited.

10mm x 50mm x 1.37m

Impact reduction with airborne support

Hush 10 Joist Strip gives strong impact noise reduction. For airborne performance, use it as part of a full system with Hush Slab 100 between the joists and a suitable plasterboard ceiling.

That complete system helps meet the internal-floor airborne targets of 40 dB Rw in England & Wales (Document E) and Northern Ireland (Part G), and 43 dB Rw in Scotland (Section 5). These are system targets, not standalone sound reduction figures for the strip.

Direct-to-joist acoustic flooring

Hush 10 Joist Strip can be used directly over joists with Hush Panel 28, Hush Panel 32, Hush Ply 28, Hush Cem Panel 28 and Hush Cem Panel 32, at joist centres up to 450mm. The panels sit straight over the strips to form a structural floating floor.

Suitable applications include residential, education, healthcare and leisure projects, including refurbishments with limited room to raise the floor.

How to fit Hush 10 Joist Strip

Fit strips along the top of every joist before laying the floor. Staple them to timber joists or glue them to metal joists.
Lay the specified Hush panels directly over the strips as a structural floating floor, keeping joist centres within 450mm.
Glue all panel tongue-and-groove joints. Use Hush Bond panel adhesive for Hush Panel and Hush Ply, and Hush Cem Panel Adhesive for Hush Cem Panel.
Isolate the room perimeter with Hush Seal 20 perimeter seal.

How many do I need?

Count the joists and multiply by the room length in metres, measured along the joists. Divide the total by 1.37 and round up to the next whole strip.

For example, 10 joists running for 4m need 40 linear metres of strip. 40 ÷ 1.37 = 29.2, rounded up to 30 strips.

In general, we recommend 3 x Hush 10 Joist Strips Per 2400mm x 600mm Panel.

How many Hush 10 Joist Strips do I need?

Count the joists and multiply by the room length in metres, measured along the joists. Divide by 1.37 and round up to the next whole strip. For example, 10 joists running for 4m require 30 strips; each unit purchased is one strip. If you don't know the total linear meterage of the joists then we suggest 3 strips per Hush Panel (2400mm x 600mm) as a general rule of thumb.

Can I lay acoustic panels straight onto the joists?

For the specified direct-to-joist system, lay Hush Panel 28, Hush Panel 32, Hush Ply 28, Hush Cem Panel 28 or Hush Cem Panel 32 over Hush 10 Joist Strips fitted to every joist top, at centres up to 450mm. Glue the tongue-and-groove joints with Hush Bond for Hush Panel and Hush Ply, or Hush Cem Panel Adhesive for Hush Cem Panel, and isolate the perimeter with Hush Seal 20.

Which Hush panels can be used with the strips?

Hush Panel 28, Hush Panel 32, Hush Ply 28, Hush Cem Panel 28 and Hush Cem Panel 32 can be laid directly over the strips as a structural floating floor at joist centres up to 450mm.

How are Hush 10 Joist Strips fixed?

Staple the strips to the top of timber joists or glue them to metal joists before laying the floor. The strips create a resilient cushion between the joists and the floor deck.

Do Hush 10 Joist Strips raise my floor height?

The strips are 10mm thick and compress to about 8mm in use. Allow for this layer as well as the thickness of your chosen panel and floor finish when planning the finished floor height.
