Product Description

Overview

304 stainless steel channel steel is a long steel strip with a grooved cross section, similar to stainless steel I-beam. Stainless steel channel steel is divided into ordinary channel steel and light channel steel. The model and specification are expressed as waist height (h) × leg width (b) × waist thickness (d), in millimeters.

For example, 120*53*5 means a channel steel with a waist height of 120 mm, a leg width of 53 mm, and a waist thickness of 5 mm, or 12# channel steel.
Channel steels with the same waist height, if there are several different leg widths and waist thicknesses, add letters (a, b, c) to distinguish them, such as 25a#, 25b#, 25c#.

Application scope of 304 stainless steel channel steel

Stainless steel channel steel is mainly used in building structures, vehicle manufacturing and other industrial structures. Channel steel is also often used in conjunction with I-beams.

Hot-rolled stainless steel ordinary channel steel (GB707-88)

Main uses: Ordinary channel steel is mainly used for building structures, vehicle manufacturing and other industrial structures, and is often used in conjunction with I-beams.

Hot-rolled stainless steel light channel steel (YB164-63)

Hot-rolled light channel steel is a steel with wide legs and thin walls, which has better economic effects than ordinary hot-rolled channel steel. Its specifications range from 5-40#. The 1966 Metallurgical Standard stipulates the specification range from 10-40#.
