Channel steel is a long stripe of steel with a fluted section , construction and mechanical use of carbon structural steel, is a profile steel with complex section , its section shape is groove shape.
Channel steel is mainly used in building structure, curtain wall engineering, mechanical equipment and vehicle manufacturing., Channel steel is often used together with I steel.
Channel steel is divided into ordinary u-steel and light Channel steel. The specification of hot rolled ordinary Channel steel is 5-40#. The specification of hot rolled flexible Channel steel is 6.5-30# after agreement between the purchaser and the supplier.
Channel steel according to the shape can be divided into four kinds :
cold bending equilateral u-steel, cold bending unequal side Channel steel, cold bending inner edge coil Channel steel, cold bending outer edge coil u-steel.

A36 hot rolled steel c channels, also referred to as “American Standard Channels”, are an excellent candidate for most processing techniques. A36 hot rolled steel channels have a rough, blue-grey finish. A36 material is a low carbon steel mild steel which is long lasting and durable. Hot rolled C channels have a “structural shape” meaning at least one dimension (excluding length) is greater than 3 inches. C channels inside flange surface have approximately a 16-2/3% slope, which distinguishes them from “MC” channels. Common applications include structural support, trailers, and other architectural uses. ASTM A36 / A36M-08 is the standard specification for carbon structural steel.

What is channel metal used for?
Steel channels and I beams are used to construct huge commercial, industrial, and residential buildings. Steel channels
are versatile and can be used as braces, joints, grids, studs, etc. Steel Channels are the main supporting component for metal
structures. They are welded or bolted in place.
