U 200x60x2
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 200x60x2 steel profile weighs 7.2 kg/m (4.85 lb/ft), has a depth of 200 mm (7.87 in), flange width 60 mm (2.36 in). Cross-sectional area: 628 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 356.76 cm⁴, Iy = 18.82 cm⁴.
Cross-section (not to scale)
Gauge equivalent: 2 mm ≈ 14 gauge (Manufacturers Standard Gage)
