Fissured Basic 562 Acoustical Ceiling Panel 2x4 Ft Square Edge

Product Description

The FISSURED BASIC 562 is an economical, all-purpose acoustical ceiling panel designed for medium-texture ceiling applications in commercial and institutional environments. Each panel measures 2 feet by 4 feet by 5/8 inch and features a square edge profile. Classified as Class A for fire performance, the 562 delivers a noise reduction coefficient (NRC) of 0.55 and a ceiling attenuation class (CAC) rating of 35, making it a practical choice for spaces where basic acoustic control is required. Light reflectance reaches up to 0.81, supporting efficient ambient lighting in finished ceilings. The panel surface cleans with a soft brush or vacuum, reducing maintenance time.

The 562 panel is suited for light commercial construction and tenant improvement projects, including administrative offices, corridors, mass merchandise retail environments, and convenience stores. The square edge profile is compatible with standard exposed-tee suspension grid systems. Each case contains 8 panels covering 64 square feet, making it a straightforward unit to estimate and order by the case for larger ceiling installations. Installation is typically performed by ceiling mechanics or general contractors working within commercial interior build-outs.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically completed by qualified ceiling mechanics or general contractors. Panels should be acclimated to the installation environment before placement per standard industry practice. Ensure the suspension grid is level and properly secured before setting panels. Handle panels by the edges to avoid surface damage, and avoid installation in areas with sustained high humidity unless the panel is specifically rated for such conditions.
