What is a Hat Channel?
A hat channel, also known as omega or furring channel is a corrosion-resistant framing piece, which is used to fur out walls in masonry and ceiling projects. While it is most commonly used in basement renovations, it is used in other applications as well.
Hat channels get their name from their hat-like shape.  Hat channels contain a grooved metal piece which is perfect for leveling out walls. The shape is also ergonomically-friendly, making it easy to install without much hassle at all.
