Saint-Gobain Gyproc Soffit Cleat is a heavy-duty structural anchor component engineered for suspended ceiling systems and false ceiling layouts. Measuring 27 x 37 x 25 mm with a dense 1.6 mm thick gauge, this L-shaped metal bracket acts as the critical primary connection point between the solid overhead concrete slab (soffit) and the vertical ceiling L-angle or suspension hanger rod.

Why Buy from HomeRun?

1) What is the main job of a soffit cleat in a false ceiling layout?

A soffit cleat provides a solid mechanical anchor point on the raw overhead concrete ceiling. It connects the structural slab to the vertical L-angles, creating a stable, level suspension grid for the rest of the metal framework.

2) Can I bend or adjust these cleats on the job site?

The 1.6 mm high-tensile steel frame is engineered for rigid 90-degree load support. Minor levelling adjustments should be handled by sliding the vertical ceiling L-angle up or down the cleat before tightening the M6 nut, rather than forcing a bend in the bracket.

3) Can I use plastic wall plugs to mount this cleat to the slab?

No. Suspended ceiling grids require fire-safe, heavy-duty mechanical anchors. You must use metal rawl plugs or wedge anchors to mount the cleat to the concrete roof to ensure the framework stays securely suspended over time.

4) Will these cleats rust over time in a humid bathroom or kitchen ceiling?

No. Every authentic Gyproc soffit cleat features a protective zinc coating that protects the structural steel from rust, even in high-humidity zones above damp bathroom or kitchen ceiling setups.

5) How far apart should these cleats be spaced?

Space them at a maximum of 1200 mm (4 feet) intervals along the primary intermediate channels, to keep the load evenly distributed and avoid overloading any single grid point.
