Adjustable pedestals are an important part of modern raised floor systems. They are widely used in terraces, balconies, rooftops, commercial spaces, landscape areas and outdoor decking projects. By supporting tiles, pavers or joist systems above the substrate, pedestals help create a stable finished surface while allowing space for drainage, ventilation and future maintenance.

Different projects may have different installation conditions, height requirements, substrate slopes, budgets and stock needs. Therefore, one pedestal solution may not be suitable for every project. Moonbay offers MB-T Series, MB-X Series and Self-Leveling Series to meet different application requirements.

Here is a breakdown to help you select the ideal Moonbay pedestal for your next project.

1. MB-T Series: The Classic & Versatile Workhorse

MB-T Series is Moonbay’s classic adjustable pedestal system. It is suitable for projects that require a mature, stable and widely compatible solution.

With different accessories, MB-T Series can support tiles, stone pavers, timber joists, composite joists and aluminum joists. For projects with clear requirements 

and relatively standard site conditions, MB-T is usually a reliable and flexible choice.

In simple terms: choose MB-T Series when you need a classic, strong and versatile pedestal system.

2. MB-X Series: The Champion of Efficiency & Stock Control

MB-X Series is more suitable for customers who care about installation efficiency, stock management and cost control.

This series can cover a wide height range with fewer models, helping distributors reduce SKU quantity and simplify warehouse management. MB-X also supports top adjustment, allowing installers to adjust the pedestal height from above the tile surface without repeatedly lifting heavy tiles or pavers. This helps save installation time and labor cost on site.

In simple terms: choose MB-X Series when you need a cost-effective pedestal system with fewer SKUs and easier installation.

3. Self-Leveling Series: The Ultimate Engineering Problem Solver

In rooftop, balcony and terrace projects, the substrate is often designed with a slope for drainage. If a standard flat-head pedestal is used, additional slope 

correction accessories or more leveling work may be required.

Moonbay Self-Leveling Series can compensate for slopes from 0 to 5% through its self-leveling head, helping installers create a level and even finished surface 

above sloped or uneven substrates. It is especially suitable for projects with higher requirements for surface flatness and installation quality.

In simple terms: choose Self-Leveling Series when the substrate has slope or when the project requires better leveling performance.

Your Complete Raised Floor Partner

There is no single pedestal series suitable for every scenario, but there is always a perfect match for your specific engineering needs. By selecting the right system, contractors can build faster, and distributors can sell smarter.
