Perimeter trim clip for suspended ceilings

摘要

A perimeter trim attachment clip formed as a single piece sheet metal stamping, the clip having a base, top and bottom rearwardly extending trim engaging grips on the base, the grips having a free edge distal from the base adapted to engage respective top and bottom hems of a perimeter trim channel, a standoff projecting rearwardly of the base beyond the grip edges, the standoff being adapted to abut the side of a grid runner extending parallel along the periphery of a free edge of a ceiling, a squaring tab connected to the base and configured to extend over the parallel extending grid runner and be attached to a reinforcing bulb of a grid runner intersecting the parallel grid runner.
