Depths from 3″ to 18″
Flange widths from 1.41″ to 5.4″
Web thicknesses from 0.17″ to 0.75″

Steel channels are a versatile component in a wide range of structural applications, including:
Whether you’re building a multi-story structure or fabricating equipment, we have the channel profiles to match your specs.
When selecting between channels, angles, and wide flange beams, consider load direction, span, and connection methods. Channels are ideal for horizontal or edge support and are lighter than wide flange beams, making them cost-effective for secondary structures and framing.
