MgO board has different characteristics than
gypsum. It can be scored and snapped but better results come from cutting with
carbide saws and shaping with routers. Attachment can be done using a
nail gun, which results in much faster construction time or screws that are
able to self countersink work. MgO board generally has superior strength than
gypsum for impact, fastener holding, and shear applications. A single screw in
a 12 mm board can hold 200 lbs in shear and half that amount in tension. Due to
its hardness, Corner and J beads are not required. Joints do not have to be on
a stud and it is possible to go from board installation to painting the same
day. Moreover, because of its stiffness, thinner boards can be used. Ten millimeter
or three eighth inch works well for walls and eight millimeter can
be used for ceilings.
