Steel Channel is a hot rolled, mild steel structural C shape with inside radius corners that is ideal for all structural applications, general fabrication, manufacturing and repairs. Steel Channel is widely used in industrial maintenance, agricultural implements, transportation equipment, truck beds, trailers, etc. Its C-shape or U-shape configuration is ideal for for added strength and rigidity over steel angle when your project's load is vertically or horizontal. This steel shape is easy to weld, cut, form and machine with the proper equipment and knowledge.
