Product Overview
3600mm galvanised steel furring channel for use in suspended ceiling frameworks.
Within the MF ceiling system, the MF5 profile works in conjunction with MF7 primary channels and MF6A perimeter channels, forming the secondary layer that directly carries the plasterboard lining.
Constructed from robust galvanised steel, the channel delivers excellent strength and long-term resistance to corrosion, maintaining integrity throughout the service life of the ceiling.
It is engineered to meet recognised performance standards for suspended ceiling construction, ensuring reliability across a range of settings.
When combined with other MF components, the channel forms a rigid and durable framework capable of supporting both standard and specialist plasterboards.
