Abstract
An adapter for use with a support grid for ceiling elements. In particular the adapter mounts on a horizontal bottom portion of an inverted T-shaped support. The adapter has a first flange forming a C-shaped clip. A plurality of such flanges are spaced along the adapter length so they do not interfere with cross-support members. Second flange portions support the ceiling elements. Additionally, third flange portions are provided to prevent transverse movement of the adapter relative the support. The third flange portions are also spaced to prevent interference with cross supports.
