Product Overview
The FHA Type J-Channel is a support component for mirror installations, constructed from aluminum with a brite anodized finish. This channel is designed to hold mirrors 1/8" from the wall, allowing for air circulation behind the glass. A raised rib at the bottom of the channel prevents moisture from being trapped, which helps protect the silver mirror backing from condensation damage. The channel features a height of 3/4", a base width of 7/16", and an inner opening width of 5/16". The short leg height of 21/64", and the total length of the channel is 144". This product meets FHA specifications and provides a neat, trim appearance for mirror mounting applications. The aluminum construction provides a stable base for glass panels, while the brite anodized finish offers a consistent aesthetic. The channel is specifically engineered to accommodate 1/4" glazing thickness, ensuring a secure fit for various mirror sizes. By maintaining a 1/8" wall clearance, the channel facilitates necessary airflow, reducing the risk of moisture accumulation. The design includes a short leg height of 21/64" to assist in edge alignment during installation. This J-Channel is suitable for residential and commercial mirror mounting projects where FHA compliance is required.
