Product Description

About Stock Hat Channels

The MHAT hat channels are an extremely versatile cladding support component, and can be used behind almost any cladding system. The 1” projection can fur out the wall for a drained and ventilated cavity behind moisture sensitive cladding. It can also be used behind a concealed fastener system, as an affordable, and rot-free furring system.

These gauges of hat channels are typically used in exterior applications, but can also be used in interior applications, where a heavier duty panel, or more durable support system is required.

We offer both solid and ventilated options, with the vented option allowing for horizontal installation.

Stock Hat Channel Features

Two Thickness Options for Exterior use – 16ga for heavier cladding panels, and 18ga for lighter weight options
G90 Galvanized Finish Provides Great Corrosion Resistance
Optional Venting allows for Horizontal Installation, while maintaining a drained and ventilated cavity

Installation Options

The hat channels can be installed in a number of ways depending on the cladding needs. In instances where the hat channels are used as furring, behind a concealed fastener system, they can be oriented in either direction. In an installation where there are exposed fasteners, they can also be installed either direction, and sometimes in both directions to allow for panels to share hat channels.
