UPN 140

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 UPN 140 steel profile weighs 16.0 kg/m (10.75 lb/ft), has a depth of 140 mm (5.51 in), flange width 60 mm (2.36 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,673 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 465.67 cm⁴, Iy = 46.75 cm⁴.
