🛠 No. 16 channel - the foundation of strong steel structures
No. 16 steel channel (160 mm web height) is a heavy structural section designed for building components subject to high loads. Its geometry makes it a suitable alternative to more expensive I-beams in structures where the load acts on the web.
🏗️ Applications of No. 16 channel:
- Industrial workshops: load-bearing frames, intermediate floors, and platforms for heavy equipment.
- Bridge construction and ramps: fabrication of support components subject to bending.
- Crane runways: No. 16 channel is often used as a track support for hoists and light cranes.
- Complex special-purpose machinery: trailer frames, platforms, and load-bearing assemblies for agricultural machinery.
✅ Technical parameters and quality from SteelStream
We dispatch channel sections that comply with ДСТУ 3436-96. Each batch is supplied with the manufacturer’s quality certificate.
- Reliability: a section height of 160 mm and web thickness of 5.0 mm provide a substantial strength reserve.
- Weldability: the Ст3пс or S235JR steel used has no welding restrictions, allowing complex monolithic assemblies to be made.
- Long service life: the section resists deformation and can last for decades with appropriate corrosion protection.
