These industry-standard MF5 ceiling sections are for use in any MF ceiling installations. Lightweight and easy to install, they offer a reliable surface for plasterboard installation.

MF5 Plasterboard Ceiling Sections

Metal frame ceiling systems are a popular choice for both residential and commercial properties. They are versatile, lightweight and strong, providing an efficient way to complete ceiling works. Suspended ceiling systems can also be used to hide services such as wires, plumbing and insulation, creating a clean finish.

Otherwise known as top hats for their shape, MF5 channels are connected perpendicular to the MF7 and MF6 ceiling supports, completing the metal grid onto which plasterboard can be fitted.

How to Install the MF5 Furring Channel

Installing the MF5 is a simple process – these channels are lightweight and easy to handle, and they clip neatly into the MF6 before being attached to the MF7.

You have two options for connecting the MF5 to the MF7, depending on the nature of your job. MF9 connecting clips are a popular and simple option, while you can also fix them with wafer head screws if more support is needed (for example, in residential apartments with changing pressures).

These top hat channels are also easy to cut or lengthen to the required size. If you need them extended, simply overlap two MF5s and fix them together with a wafer screw.
