Product type
C Channels, also known as C beams or C sections, are structural steel components with a cross-section resembling the letter 'C'. They are typically made from carbon steel or stainless steel and are produced through hot-rolled or cold-formed processes. C Channels are widely used in construction and manufacturing due to their strength and versatility.
| Material | Carbon steel or stainless steel |
| Standard sizes | Widths from 3 to 12 inches |
| Thickness range | 0.125 to 0.5 inches |
| Length options | Common lengths from 20 to 40 feet |
| Weight per foot | Varies from 1 to 20 lbs per foot |
When choosing C Channels, consider the specific load requirements and the environment in which they will be used.
