The Square Tegular 9\/16 in. edge gives a reveal effect in a 9\/16 in. grid, so match your grid profile before ordering. For general office acoustics with less stringent attenuation needs, a standard Mars panel may be a more economical choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWear eye protection and gloves when cutting mineral fiber panels and follow USG installation guides and local building codes.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder the USG Mars Healthcare High-NRC\/High-CAC acoustical panel for sound control you can specify with confidence.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"USG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53396022002031,"sku":"USG2232","price":185.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/3499\/7051\/files\/comparison-detail-lrg.644.336.jpg?v=1789758628","url":"https:\/\/superarbor.io\/products\/usg-mineral-fiber-radar-acoustical-panel","provider":"Super Arbor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
