A "J-type hanger" refers to a specific type of hardware used to hang and support the main runners or T-shaped channels of the ceiling grid. Suspended ceilings, also known as drop ceilings, consist of a grid of metal T-shaped runners that are suspended from the main structural ceiling. These runners support ceiling tiles, lights, and other fixtures, creating a space between the suspended ceiling and the structural ceiling above.
A J-type hanger designed for suspended ceilings has a shape that resembles the letter "J," with a hook-like top section and a straight or slightly curved tail. This type of hanger is used to suspend the main runners of the ceiling grid from the structural ceiling. The hook is typically attached to the structural ceiling using appropriate fasteners such as screws, and the tail holds the T-shaped runner in place.
The purpose of using J-type hangers in suspended ceiling systems is to provide a reliable and adjustable method for hanging and supporting the ceiling grid. The adjustability allows for easy alignment of the runners, ensuring a level and uniform appearance for the finished ceiling. Additionally, J-type hangers can be used to accommodate the weight of the ceiling tiles and fixtures, while also allowing for adjustments if changes are needed during the installation process.
