U 200x60x6.3
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 200x60x6.3 steel profile weighs 22.7 kg/m (15.29 lb/ft), has a depth of 200 mm (7.87 in), flange width 60 mm (2.36 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,896.9 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,016.44 cm⁴, Iy = 48.04 cm⁴.
Cross-section (not to scale)
Gauge equivalent: 6.3 mm ≈ 3 gauge (Manufacturers Standard Gage)
