Product Specifications
Product Description
The 180 x 75 x 20KG Parallel Flange Channel – BSEN10025-2 S355JR – is a reliable structural steel section designed for demanding load-bearing applications. Manufactured from grade S355JR steel, this channel offers high strength, excellent weldability, and consistency across a wide range of construction and engineering uses.
With a depth of 180mm, a width of 75mm, and a weight of 20.3kg per metre, this parallel flange channel is ideal for applications that require robust horizontal or vertical support. It is especially suited to frameworks, portal frames, mezzanine floors, and support systems where strength and durability are key.
Common Applications
- Steel structures and frameworks
- Mezzanine floors and portal frames
- Support columns and bracing
- Agricultural and industrial buildings
- Rail, plant, and infrastructure projects
FAQ
What does the designation 180 x 75 x 20KG refer to?
It refers to the profile dimensions and weight: 180mm overall depth, 75mm flange width, and approximately 20.3kg per metre. This sizing helps ensure optimal strength and load-carrying performance in structural applications.
Can I cut or weld this channel on site?
Yes, the S355JR grade steel is well-suited to on-site processing. It can be cut, drilled, and welded using standard equipment, making it practical for fabrication and installation on construction sites.
Is this channel suitable for use in exposed environments?
While the material offers good durability, we recommend galvanising or coating the channel for prolonged exposure to moisture or corrosive conditions to extend its lifespan in outdoor applications.
Can this section be used in both vertical and horizontal supports?
Absolutely. The parallel flange design provides uniform strength across both axes, making it suitable for vertical columns as well as horizontal beams or bracing systems.
How does this differ from universal beams or columns?
Unlike universal beams or columns which have tapered flanges, parallel flange channels have flat, consistent flange widths. This makes them easier to connect with flat plates and improves weld quality in many fabrication setups.
