MLV Mass Loaded Vinyl Sound Barrier - 2 lb sq/ft Non Reinforced
2 lb Non Reinforced Mass Loaded Vinyl Sound Barrier
Steel Guard Safety's 2 lb per square foot non-reinforced mass loaded vinyl (MLV) delivers superior sound blocking performance over standard 1 lb MLV — carrying an STC 32 rating for applications where maximum acoustic barrier performance is required. Made in the USA from barium sulfate, this heavier MLV installs against walls, floors, ceilings, pipes, and ductwork to stop sound transmission through the assembly.
Why Choose 2 lb Over 1 lb MLV
The mass of an acoustic barrier is the primary driver of its sound blocking performance. Doubling the mass per square foot of MLV from 1 lb to 2 lb increases the STC rating from 26 to 32 — a meaningful improvement for applications with higher noise levels or stricter noise control requirements. The 2 lb non-reinforced MLV is the right choice when maximum sound blocking is the priority and temperature or mechanical reinforcement are not concerns. It can be used alongside acoustic blankets and sound curtains for combined absorption and blocking performance.
