Product Description
The 203 x 203 x 52KG Universal Column – S355J0 is a heavy-duty structural steel section designed for vertical load-bearing in commercial and industrial builds. Manufactured to BS EN 10025-2 standards using S355J0 steel, this 203 x 203 x 52 UC offers high strength and reliable performance in steel-framed structures.
With near-equal flange and web dimensions, the UC profile is ideal for columns where consistent structural behaviour is required. The 52kg/m unit weight ensures it’s suited to primary structural applications including steel frameworks, mezzanine supports, and braced bays. S355J0 grade steel offers good impact resistance and is easily welded or fabricated on site.
Available in stock lengths or cut to your specified size.
