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.

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.
