TRUE-STUD™

TRUE™ Drywall Framing

Telling™ Industries is pleased to offer the innovative TRUE-STUD™ Drywall Framing System. TRUE-STUD is a crisp patent pending product that incorporates extensive research through qualified third party engineers and testing labs. The TRUE™ line utilizes the most advanced raw materials available. Telling spent a lot of time and effort to do TRUE-STUD right the first time.

Telling is sure you will agree that the TRUE-STUD design is a major framing upgrade. It is easier to handle, easier to install, easier to cut and offers superior strength. TRUE-STUD ties it all together with higher strength raw materials and the refined profile. The TRUE™ line is feature rich and presents the contractor with many more options to achieve the correct blend of efficiency and performance on the jobsite.

• TRUE™-Design: The TRUE shape was carefully engineered to be strong. The TRUE-STUD utilizes smooth galvanized steel (no bumps or heavy knurling), a real plus when adjusting soffit framing and hitting your layout marks precisely!

• TRUE™-Power: The TRI-POWER™ Web Ribbing and full 1/4” returns make TRUE-STUD a stronger more-powerful choice in framing. Traditional framing typically has un-engineered webs and 3/16” returns, the minimum.

• TRUE™-Strength: The TRUE-STUD utilizes higher yield- stronger raw materials, up to 70KSI. The higher yields offer better screw retention and a stronger framing member. Traditional framing products only offer as little as 33KSI yield strength, the minimum.

• TRUE™-COATING: The TRUE line is manufactured from premium G-40 Galvanized Steel.

• TRUE-GROOVE™: The TRUE-STUD design incorporates precision grooves in the stud flanges. These grooves add superior strength. An additional benefit of the grooves is that the sheeting crews gain an indexing point for quick precision drywall hanging.

• TRUE™-ECO: The TRUE Eco (“E” and “ES”) gauges utilize much higher yield strength steel, coupled with precision engineered design elements. This combination is “Greener” by comparison to traditional offerings. The TRUE line accomplishes equal or better strength, manufactured and delivered with less consumption of the earth’s valuable resources.

• TRUE™-ADVANTAGE: The advantage of the TRUE line comes from the combination of all the intricate design elements and stronger raw materials. The TRI-POWER™ Web, TRUE-GROOVE flanges and the full 1/4” returns are the winning recipe in profile design strength. The formula of adding higher yield raw materials to the innovative profile make the TRUE-STUD one the strongest framing systems available.

• TRUE™ SERVICE: Telling has the ability to provide custom lengths, special packaging and markings anywhere in the United States, Canada and beyond.
