Product Description
Our 3" Structural C-Channel is a robust steel section featuring an "inner-tapered" flange design, engineered for maximum rigidity and strength. At 4.1 lbs per linear foot, this channel provides a high strength-to-weight ratio, making it the industry standard for trailer frames, stair stringers, and structural bracing.
This carbon steel channel is easy to weld, cut, and drill, providing a versatile solution for heavy-duty projects where flat-bar or angle-iron lacks the necessary torsion resistance. Its structural geometry is specifically designed to handle directional loads, making it a reliable choice for primary support members.
✅ Key Features & Benefits
-
Directional Strength: The C-shape geometry offers superior resistance to bending along the web axis, perfect for load-bearing spans.
-
Structural Welding Grade: Excellent weldability for MIG, TIG, and Stick processes, ensuring reliable joints in safety-critical applications.
-
Torsion Resistance: Provides much higher stability than flat plate or angle iron when used as a structural member.
-
Easy Integration: The flat back of the web allows for easy mounting against walls, floors, or other flat surfaces.
-
Industrial Durability: Thick-walled carbon steel construction is built to withstand heavy impacts and mechanical stress in demanding environments.
