There are many different types of saws and cutting tools that easily and quickly cut QuietRock. They
include:
Circular Saw
Makita 5057KB 184 mm (7-1/4”) Circular Saw w/ Dust Box
TENRYU steel pro PRF-18548BW (or equal)
Jig Saw
Makita 4334DWD 18v Variable Speed Jigsaw
Makita 7230123 10 Pack 24 tpi Blades 79 mm (3-1/8”) (or equal)
Makita 7230084 10 Pack 24 tpi Blades 59 mm (2-3/8”)
Cutout Tool
Makita 3706 Drywall Router
Makita 733341A 6 mm (1/4”) Solid Carbide Bit (3706)
It is also recommended to saw outdoors, or use a vacuum system on the saw to reduce dust if you
will be cutting many panels. We recommend using:
Makita XSV10 10 Gal. Wet/Dry Vacuum
Makita 1934577 Vacuum Attachment (3706) (for drywall router)
Makita 1922023 Rubber Sleeve 19 mm (3/4”) I.D x 22 mm (7/8”) O.D. (for jig saw)
Makita 1924180 Vacuum Attachment (4334DWD) (for jig saw)
Makita 1922798 10 Ft. Hose (3706,4334DWD)*
Makita 410871A Hose Adapter (3706,4334DWD)*
Makita 110001A Cartridge Filter (XSV10)
In general, QuietSeal should be used to ll all air gaps in all walls so that it is completely airtight. For
this purpose, apply a continuous 3 mm – 10 mm (1/8” - 3/8”) diameter bead of QuietSeal around the
perimeter of each surface treated with QuietRock panels and around all panel cutouts. To ensure the
highest acoustical performance, QuietSeal must be used:
• Under the bottom stud plate
• Above the top stud plate
• Between the end studs and the adjacent walls, if applicable
• Around wall or ceiling perimeter (on the edges of the panel)
• Around electrical boxes
When using on the edges of the panels, the adjacent sheet of QuietRock should ‘‘squeeze’’ the
QuietSeal in between them. The panels should t together tightly. Be sure to remove excess
QuietSeal with a rag (any paint thinner easily removes QuietSeal) or putty knife as needed. DO NOT
LEAVE QUIETSEAL ON THE SURFACE, AS IT CAN INTERFERE WITH TAPE AND MUD. QuietSeal will
remain viscoelastic, i.e. will not dry, so it is necessary to tape and texture over the joints.
See QuietSeal instructions for more detailed information and apply QuietSeal in accordance with
applicable requirements of ASTM C919.
QuietPutty pads are used to seal the back and sides of electrical outlets and plumbing xtures for
sound control. If not properly treated, these penetrations can severely decrease the acoustical
performance of rated wall assemblies. We recommend using QuietPutty pads by QuietRock. See
the application notes for QuietPutty for correct installation.
