USG Interior Panel& SUBMITTAL SHEET Finishing Solutions USG SHEETROCKR BRAND FIRECODE® C PANELS ;'R ... 1/2 in.(12.7 mm)and 5/8 in.(15.9 mm)enhanced proprietary Type X panels for interior wall and ceiling applications a' • , • • Comply with ASTM C1396,Standard Specification for Gypsum Board,for 1/2 in.(12.7 mm), • Underwriters Laboratorieswallboard Inc.In.(UL)Classification ation as to fire resistance,surface-burning characteristics and noncombustibility 4 • Achieved GREENGUARD Gold Certification and qualifies as a low VOC emitting material (meets CA 01350) DESCRIPTION Available in 1/2 in.(12.7 mm)and 5/8 in.(15.9 mm)thicknesses,USG Sheetrock®Brand Firecode®C Panels(UL Type C)are enhanced proprietary Type X panels that feature a noncombustible gypsum core that is encased in 100%recycled face and back papers that form a high strength composite design.The face paper is folded around the long edges to reinforce and protect the core,and the ends are cut square and even.The long edges of the panels are tapered,allowing joints to be reinforced and concealed with USG Sheetrock®Brand joint treatment systems.The panels are UL Classified for fire resistance and can be used in any UL Design in which Type C panels are listed.On the face along the long edge of each panel,the UL Type Designation is printed for easy identification by building inspectors. INTENDED FOR • Commercial or residential applications where 1/2 in.(12.7 mm)or 5/8 in.(15.9 mm)Type X or enhanced proprietary Type X panels are required • New or repair and remodel construction • Load-bearing and nonload-bearing wood-or steel-framed fire-rated walls and ceilings LIMITATIONS 1. Avoid exposure to sustained temperatures exceeding 125°F(52°C). 2.Avoid exposure to excessive,repetitive or continuous moisture before,during and after installation.Eliminate sources of moisture immediately. 3. Must be stored off the ground and under cover in accordance with Gypsum Association's GA-801,Handling and Storage of Gypsum Panel Products. INTERIOR INSTALLATION, For maximum framing spacing in non-fire-resistance-rated applications of gypsum panel products, FINISHING AND DECORATING refer to Gypsum Association's GA-216,Specifications for the Application and Finishing of Gypsum INSTALLATION Panel Products or ASTM C840,Standard Specification for Application and Finishing of Gypsum Board. For fire-resistance-rated applications,refer to the published UL Design or GA File Number.

(406 mm)OC or perpendicular to framing spaced maximum 24 in.(610 mm)OC.See Appendix A.3 of Gypsum Association's GA-216,Specifications for the Application and Finishing of Gypsum Panel Products for more information. FINISHING AND DECORATING For high-quality finishing results,USG recommends USG Sheetrock®Brand finishing products. Painting products and systems should be used that comply with recommendations and requirements in Appendices of ASTM C840.For priming and decorating with paint,texture or wall covering,follow manufacturer's directions for materials used.Gypsum Association's GA-214, Recommended Levels of Finish for Gypsum Board,Glass Mat and Fiber-Reinforced Gypsum Panels should be referred to in order to determine the level of finishing needed to ensure a surface properly prepared to accept the final decoration. All surfaces,including applied joint compound,must be thoroughly dry,dust-free and not glossy. Prime with USG Sheetrock®Brand First Coat'®Primer or with an undiluted,interior latex flat paint with high-solids content.Allow to dry before decorating. To improve fastener concealment where gypsum panel walls and ceilings will be subjected to severe artificial or natural side lighting,or will be decorated with a gloss paint(eggshell,semigloss or gloss),the gypsum panel should be skim coated with joint compound.This equalizes suction and texture differences between the drywall face paper and the finished joint compound before painting.As an alternative to skim coating,or when a Level 5 finish is required,use USG Sheetrock® Brand Tuff-Hide'Primer-Surfacer.See USG She etrock®Brand Tuff-Hidetm Primer-Surfacer Submittal Sheet(J1613)for limitations and application instructions. For more information,refer to USG literature Finishing&Decorating Gypsum Panels White Paper(J2010).
