DESCRIPTION
Gold Bond® BRAND 5/8"
SoundBreak® XP® Gypsum
Board with Sporgard-rm* has
an acoustically enhanced,
high density fire resistant Type
X gypsum core encased in a
heavy, abrasion and mold/
mildew/moisture resistant,
100% recycled, National
Gypsum's original PURPLE'
paper on both sides. Used in
the construction of high rated
STC wall assemblies, this 5/8"
thick gypsum board consists of
a layer of viscoelastic damping
polymer sandwiched between
two pieces of high density
mold resistant gypsum board,
providing constrained layer
damping.
Long edges of the panels are
tapered. Tapered edges allow
joints to be reinforced with
ProForm® BRAND Joint Tape
and concealed with ProForm®
BRAND Ready Mix or Pro Form®
BRAND Quick Set Setting
Compounds. For optimum
mold and mildew performance,
National Gypsum recommends
ProFormo BRAND XP11 Ready
Mix.
BASIC USES
For use as single -layer application
or as a component of rnulti-
layered wall assemblies
where sound transmission
between rooms or dwelling
units is a concern.
"Sporgard is a trademark of tANXESS Corporation
5/8" SoundBreak XP panels may
be used where Type X gypsum
panels are specified in fire -
rated wall assemblies (e.g., UL
U300, U400 and V400.)
ADVANTAGES
• Vertical board joints do not
require acoustical sealant.
• Resists the growth of mold per
ASTM G 21 with a score of 0,
the best possible score.
• Resists the growth of mold per
ASTM D 3273 with a score of
10, the best possible score.
• Use of 5/8" SoundBreak XP
Gypsum Board results in wall
partitions with high rated STC
values that are thinner than
traditionally built high rated
STC wall partitions providing
increased usable floor space.
• 5/8" SoundBreak XP Gypsum
Board features a fire resistant
Type X core and is UL
classified and approved for
inclusion in specific UL fire -
rated designs.
• Superior sound damping, cost-
efficient material that is easily
finished and decorated in the
same manner as standard
gypsum board.
Job Name
Contractor
• Heavy abrasion resistant
paper and denser core provide
greater resistance to surface
abuse and indentation when
tested in accordance with
ASTM C 1629.
• All SoundBreak XP Gypsum
Board designs were tested by
an independent third -party
acoustical laboratory using
the full-scale ASTM E 90 test
procedure.
• SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board
is installed like traditional
gypsum board, offering a more
reliable and less complicated
solution than alternative
methods requiring clips and/or
channels.
• SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board
can be cut by scoring deeply
from both sides of the board
before snapping, or with the
use of a hand or electric saw.
GREENGUARD CERTIFIED
Gold Bond® BRAND 5/8"
SoundBreak® XP11 Gypsum
Board has achieved
GREENGUARD Gold
Certification.
MOLD AND MILDEW
RESISTANCE
SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board
was designed to provide extra
protection against mold and
mildew compared to standard
gypsum board products.
When tested by an
independent laboratory,
SoundBreak XP Gypsum
Board with Sporgard received
the highest possible ratings on
ASTM G 21 and D 3273.
The use of SoundBreak XP
Gypsum Board in actual
installations may not produce
the same results as were
achieved in controlled
laboratory conditions. No
material can be considered
"mold proof;" nor is it certain
that any material will resist
mold or mildew indefinitely.
When used in conjunction
with good design, handling
and construction practices,
SoundBreak XP Gypsum
Board can provide
increased mold resistance
versus standard gypsum
board products. As with
any building material,
avoiding water exposure
during handling, storage
and installation, and after
installation is complete, is the
best way to avoid the formation
of mold or mildew.
Date
LIMITATIONS
• Exposure to excessive or
continuous moisture and
extreme temperatures should
be avoided. SoundBreak
XP Gypsum Board is not
recommended where it will
be exposed to temperatures
exceeding 1250F(52°C)for
extended periods of tirne.
• Installing SoundBreak XP
Gypsurn Board panels over
an insulating blanket, installed
continuously across the face
of the framing mernbers, is
not recommended. Blankets
should be recessed and flanges
attached to the sides of the
studs.
• SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board
must be stored off the ground
and under cover. Sufficient
risers must be used to ensure
support for the entire length of
the gypsum board to prevent
sagging.
• SoundBreak XP Gypsum
Board must be kept dry to
minimize the potential for
mold growth. Adequate
care should be taken while
transporting, storing, applying
and maintaining SoundBreak
XP Gypsum Board. For
additional information, refer
to the Gypsum Association
publication, "Guidelines for
the Prevention of Mold
Growth on Gypsum Board"
(GA -238-03), which is
available at www.gypsum.
org under the "Download
Free Gypsum Association
Publications" section.
COMPOSITION & MATERIALS
5/8" SoundBreak XP Gypsum
Board consists of two outer
panels with a specially
formulated, mold resistant
gypsum core encased with
recycled mold resistant paper,
combined with an inner
layer of viscoelastic damping
polymer. SoundBreak XP
Gypsum Board also contains
various aggregates, such as
fiberglass, to enhance the fire
resistive qualities. SoundBreak
XP Gypsum Board contains no
asbestos.

FIRE RESISTANCE RATINGS
Fire resistance ratings represent
the results of tests on
assemblies made up of
specific materials in a specific
configuration. When selecting
construction designs to
meet certain fire resistance
requirements, caution must
be used to ensure that each
component of the assembly is
the one specified in the test.
Further precautions should be
taken that assembly procedures
are in accordance with
those of the tested assembly.
For copies of specific tests,
call 1 -800 -NATIONAL. For
fire safety information, see

SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board
shall be attached in accordance
with manufacturer's
recommendations. When
SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board
is installed between the framing
and the UL Classified gypsum
board, the UL Classified
gypsum board layer(s) required
for the design is/are to be
installed as indicated in the
design as to fastener type
and spacing, except that the
required fastener length shall
be increased by a minimum of
5/8".

LA INSTALLATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
Installation of SoundBreak XP
Gypsum Board should be
consistent with methods
described in the standards and
references noted.
DECORATION
For best painting results, all
surfaces, including joint
compound, should be clean,
dust -free and not glossy. To
improve fastener and joint
concealment, a coat of a
quality drywall primer is
recommended to equalize the
porosities between surface
paper and joint compound.
The selection of a paint to
give the specified or desired
finished characteristics is the
responsibility of the architect or
contractor.
SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board
that is to have a wall covering
applied should be prepared
and primed as described for
painting.
Gypsum Association GA -214,
Recommended Specification
for Levels of Gypsum Board
Finish, should be referred to in
order to determine the level of
finishing required to ensure a
properly prepared surface that
accepts the desired decoration.

Minimum Guidelines for Optimum Performance and Sound Reduction
• Stagger SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board joints from one side of the
wall to the other.
• Allow a 1/4" gap along all wall perimeter edges and completely seal
1/4" gap with acoustical sealant or caulk.
• Refrain froth any wall penetrations when possible.
• Limit necessary wall penetrations to one per stud cavity.
• Seal all penetrations with acoustical sealant and/or putty pads.
• The use of SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board in actual installations
may not produce the same results as were achieved in controlled,
laboratory conditions.
Recommendations for Cutting SoundBreak Gypsum Board
• SoundBreak XP Gypsum Board can be cut by scoring deeply from
both sides of the board before snapping, or with the use of a hand or
electric saw. Cutting across the 4' width may require use of a saw.
Recommendations for Acoustical Sealants and Putty Pads
• Use an acoustical sealant that is applied per ASTM C 919 such as
Grabber Acoustical Sealant GSC, STI SpecSeal Smoke N Sound
Caulk, BOSS 824 Acoustical Sound Sealant or equivalent.
• Use a putty pad that has been tested per ASTM E 90, such as
STI SpecSeal SSP Putty Pads or BOSS 818 Fire=Rated Putty Pads
or equivalent.
