Can larger service holes be drilled into Siniat Studs?

Guidance in increasing service holes in Sinait Studs

Service holes in Siniat Metal C Studs for Siniat Partitions are 25mm wide.

Where additional space is required for services, a single centrally located opening may be formed over an existing service hole in 70mm, 90mm and 146mm Siniat C Studs. The size of the opening should not exceed 40% of the stud width as follows: 

C Stud Size

Maximum hole diameter (mm)

70

28

90

36

146

58

A protective grommet/sleeve should be included to protect any services passing through the stud.

Service openings cannot be created in Siniat CH studs for Shaftwalls or Siniat I Studs for Independent Wall Lining systems.
