Contact SupplierA Steel Channel is a C-shaped Structure made from Mild Steel that is hot rolled. The inside corners of the steel channel have specific radii that provides it the required strength and rigidity to support steel angles, and for various other structural and construction projects. They are fairly easy to prepare with the right equipment and dimensions. Steel Channels commonly follow the dimensional standards of ASTM 36. Post hot-rolling, the Steel Channels are generally subjected to additional inline fabrication. After the fabrication process, it is either painted or sent for galvanisation to make it resistant to corrosion. Steel Channels can be cut, drilled, or machined per requirements. They can also be welded with ease. Large Channels are usually manufactured using laser fusion technology.
Steel Channels fit both Indoor and Outdoor usage. They are normally employed for general construction. Few examples of use are as Lintel above doors and as support for floor joists. Indoor usage is mostly as Holders, Covers, Frames, Inserts, Décor, Brackets, Tracks, Slides, Posts etc. Outdoor usage include as Standards, Supports, Reinforcements, Stiffeners, Railings, Rails, Rims, Purlins, Sub-girts, Girts, etc. Other industries that use Steel Channels are Ship Building and Automotive Industries. Majority of Manufacturing Industries make passive use of Steel Channels. They are also used for Repairs. Construction of Bridges and Machinery also make use of Steel Channels. Civil Engineering and Building/Construction are the two main Industrial sectors that see high demand for Steel Channels. Their Corrosion Resistant and high support properties make them useful in these two sectors.
