Rulon Aluratone acoustical product line was
engineered to provide our customers with the best acoustical characteristics and
the beauty of real wood.
Form and function come together in a product that is as diverse as it is useful.
Rulon Aluratone is available in a large selection of face styles.
The face patterns include perforations, grooves, and custom slots.
The variety of Aluratone styles, coupled with an unlimited veneer selection,
assure there is an Aluratone product for any project.
Rulon can match to any custom color or provide a clear coat to bring out the
natural beauty of the wood.

Aluratone?
Rulons regional sales managers and
experienced engineering team are available to answer any question and help you
specify Rulon Aluratone Acoustical Panels in your next project.
Aluratone 100 utilizes a slotted face to pass sound through to the absorptive
core.
Using state-of-the-art CNC equipment, Rulon can custom cut any specified slot
pattern.
Our recommended slot is 3/8 wide, but can vary depending on scale of the
project.
Similarly, the length and spacing of the slots can be varied within
reasonable structural limits.
The Aluratone 100 panel is available in Composite, a 1-1/2 thick panel with
acoustical infill, or Solid, a panel with an optional acoustical fabric backer.
The panels can be edge banded with matching veneer for installations where
the edges are seen.
The traditional grooved pattern of the Aluratone 300 face makes it one of our
most popular Aluratone panels.
Aluratone 300 is a composite panel created by encapsulating acoustical
material behind a grooved face.
The face grooves are 1/16 wide and spaced 3/8 on center.
The face panel is also grooved on the back in a perpendicular direction before
assembly. The intersection of the
perpendicular grooves creates holes that pass sound to the absorptive core.
Aluratone 300 panels are 1-1/2 thick.
The panels are also typically edge banded with matching veneer.
Aluratone 500 is similar to Aluratone 300, but the 1/16 grooves are spaced on
3/16 centers to create a fine finished look.
The panel is typically 1-1/2 thick and is edge banded with matching veneer.
Popular in high end spaces where acoustics are a concern, Aluratone 500 is
the perfect choice for performing arts theaters.
Aluratone 700 achieves acoustical performance with a panel face perforated with
holes.
The holes pass sound through to acoustical material behind the face.
Rulons CNC drilling machine can drill holes in a variety of diameters and
patterns.
Our typical hole patterns are based on 16mm (5/8) increment system.
Standard hole spacing options include 16mm (5/8), 32mm (1-1/4), and 64mm
(2-1/2), on straight or diagonal centers.
Rulon can also drill non-standard hole patterns.
Aluratone 700 panels can be produced in acoustical composite 1-1/2 thick
panels and solid panels, which are thick.
In both cases, larger diameter holes have black acoustical fabric laminated
behind the face.
With the solid panels, additional noise reduction can be achieved by adding
acoustical insulation behind the panel during installation.
Panels can be edge banded with matching veneer to respond to project
requirements.
Some projects require the simplicity of direct attachment to walls or ceilings;
Aluratone 900 panels are perfect for the job.
Aluratone 900 provides the rich look of wood and the acoustical benefits of
our Aluratone line in a clean monolithic product.
Aluratone 900 is a solid panel with a thickness of 11/16.
The face of the Aluratone 900 panel is grooved with 1/16 wide grooves on 3/8
centers.
The back of the panel is drilled to a depth that intersects with the face
grooving to produce acoustical openings.
Black acoustical fabric is laminated on the back of the panels and can hide any
additional acoustical batting installed behind the panel.
The standard Aluratone 900 panel is 11 wide and is available in 8 and 10
lengths. The long edges of the panels are
routed with a tongue and groove.
The tongue and groove design provides a monolithic look, as well as an easy
installation.
Panels can be attached to furring or a plywood wall or ceiling.

Rulons
Aluratone panels are specifically engineered with acoustics in mind.
The Aluratone product line provides designers with the beauty of wood while
enhancing the acoustical properties of the space.
Access above
Aluratone ceilings is easily achieved with a variety of installation techniques.
C-hanger and torsion springs are all that is required on most project
installations requiring individual panel accessibility.
Light holes and
other penetrations can be factory cut on Rulons advanced CNC manufacturing
equipment.
Rulon can also manufacture the panels with pads, solid areas with no
acoustical infill, which allow penetrations to be cut in the field.
Installation of Rulon Aluratone panels varies depending on project requirements.
As mentioned above, accessible panels are most commonly installed with
C-hangers,
z-clips, or
torsion springs.
C-hangers
simply screw to the backs of the panels and suspend the panels from standard
wide C-channel.
Torsion springs are fastened to the backs of the panels and using standard
T-rail grid and a spring and clip mechanism.
For wall applications,
Z-clips provide a secure attachment to
furring or a ply board wall.
