UPE 180
EN — Cold-formed Channel
Cold-formed channels (U shapes) are similar to C shapes but without stiffening lips. Used for light structural framing, supports, and secondary members.
The UPE 180 steel profile weighs 19.7 kg/m (13.24 lb/ft), has a depth of 180 mm (7.09 in), flange width 75 mm (2.95 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,724.3 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 825.71 cm⁴, Iy = 82.4 cm⁴.
