Product catalog summary
Overview of UltraGRID® Ceiling Systems
The UltraGRID® ceiling system by Hadley Group uses the patented UltraSTEEL® process to enhance performance and cost-effectiveness, suitable for offices, retail spaces, and public sectors with various lay-in ceiling tiles.
Unique Advantages of UltraGRID®
The UltraSTEEL® process doubles material thickness, reducing raw material usage by up to 20%, enhancing load capacity, tensile strength, resistance to buckling, fire resistance, noise reduction, and screw retention.
System Specifications
UltraGRID® is aesthetically pleasing, compatible with lighting and air conditioning, adheres to ASTM C635 standards, and requires additional hangers for light fittings.
Fire Resistance
Profiles are tested for fire resistance according to BS476: Part23: 1987, with performance dependent on tile type and retaining clips.
Structural Performance
Governed by BS8290: Part2: 1991 and ASTM C636-96 standards, with specifications for components and assemblies.
Composition and Manufacture
Main and Cross Tees are made from hot-dipped galvanized steel using the UltraSTEEL® process, featuring double stitching and high tensile steel clips.
Installation and Product References
Installation must comply with BS, EN, and ASTM standards, offering improved load capacity due to the UltraSTEEL® process and stitching in the Tees.
Load Carrying Information
Load capacity is determined by hanger spacing, with maximum weights calculated from provided graphs and charts.
Ceiling Grid Load Carrying Information
1. Overview
Specifications and load carrying information for UltraGRID® systems are available in metric and imperial measurements, including Main Tees, Cross Tees, Wall Angles, and Shadow Angles.
2. Specifications
Main Tee lengths: 3600mm (metric), 12 feet (imperial). Cross Tee lengths: 500mm, 600mm, 1000mm, 1200mm (metric), 2 feet, 4 feet (imperial). Wall and Shadow Angles: 3600mm (metric), 12 feet (imperial).
3. Load Carrying Capacity
Maximum ceiling weight is determined by hanger spacing, with allowable weight being the lower value between Main Tee and Cross Tee calculations.
4. Cross Tee Spacing and Weight Limits
Metric: 600mm Cross Tees support up to 46 Kgs at 0.6m centres, 11.3 Kgs at 1.2m centres. Imperial: 24” Cross Tees support up to 59.5 lbs at 2 feet centres, 15.4 lbs at 4 feet centres.
5. Component Packaging
Components are packaged with specific quantities, weights, and lengths for both metric and imperial systems.
6. Installation Recommendations
Ensure correct hanger spacings to calculate maximum ceiling weight accurately using provided graphs and charts.
7. Additional Details
Includes detailed slot and trim specifications for precise installation and compatibility with various ceiling designs.
Specifications and Dimensions
Detailed specifications for UltraGRID® systems, including dimensions and spacing for main tees and cross tees, with metric and imperial ordering references.
Testing and Standards
Tested in accordance with ASTM C635 standards, ensuring compliance with light-duty system requirements. Capacities of tiles and ancillary components not supplied by Hadley Industries should be verified by relevant suppliers.

Improved memory and spring tension characteristics Sections manufactured using the UltraSTEEL® process have a greater ability to return to their original form after loading. Plain Steel Plain Steel A comparison between two samples from the same original coil indicates a 31% reduction in permanent deformation. The UltraSTEEL® cross-section ensures that every screw is in contact with a material thickness greater that the nominal gauge of the steel, resulting in a significant increase in the torque required to strip-out the screw.
