U 200x60x2.25

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 200x60x2.25 steel profile weighs 8.1 kg/m (5.46 lb/ft), has a depth of 200 mm (7.87 in), flange width 60 mm (2.36 in). Cross-sectional area: 704.8 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 399.07 cm⁴, Iy = 20.92 cm⁴.
