U 190x50x2
BR — 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 U 190x50x2 steel profile weighs 6.8 kg/m (4.54 lb/ft), has a depth of 190 mm (7.48 in), flange width 50 mm (1.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 568 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 280.4 cm⁴, Iy = 11.02 cm⁴.
Cross-section (not to scale)
Gauge equivalent: 2 mm ≈ 14 gauge (Manufacturers Standard Gage)
