Steel Hat Channel
In addition to creating space inside walls or ceilings—to prevent dampness or make room for insulation—these channels can also be used to level or resurface them. Their hat-like shape and flanges make them easy to mount on surfaces. Made of galvanized steel, all resist corrosion in damp environments.
Architectural 6063 Aluminum Hat Channels
- Yield Strength: 16,000 psi
- Hardness: Brinell 55 (Soft)
- Temper: T5
- Fabrication: Extruded
- Specifications Met: ASTM B221
In addition to being more corrosion resistant and easier to form than multipurpose 6061 aluminum, these hat channels have flanges that make them easy to mount on flat surfaces. Often used to create space inside walls, ceilings, or masonry to prevent dampness or make room for insulation, they can also level or resurface them. You can even use these channels on outer curtain walls on buildings.

Arc-Resistant GPO3 Fiberglass Hat Channels
- Color: Red
- Temperature Range: -50° F to 265° F
- Tensile Strength: 10,000-15,000 psi (Good)
- Impact Strength: 8.2-12 ft.-lbs./in. (Excellent)
- Hardness Rating: Barcol 50 (Hard)
- For Use Outdoors: No
- Specifications Met: UL 94 V-0
Unlike similar U-channels, these GPO3 fiberglass hat channels have flanges for mounting to flat surfaces. Use them to route and insulate wire in humid environments. All of these hat channels are arc and track resistant. They also have better electrical insulation properties than FRP fiberglass. Made of fiberglass-reinforced polyester, they're often called polyester-grade industrial laminate.
