C 60x30x10x2 IAS · Weight & Dimensions

IAS, cold-formed sections · Cold-formed Lipped Channel

Cold-formed lipped channels (C shapes) are lightweight profiles commonly used as purlins, girts, and light framing members. The stiffening lips increase local buckling resistance. Designed per AISI S100 and NBR 14762.

Also known as: Montén de 2 ½ pulgadas (México) · PFC 60x30x10x2 (UK / Australia)

The C 60x30x10x2 steel profile weighs 2.0 kg/m (1.34 lb/ft), has a depth of 60 mm (2.36 in), flange width 30 mm (1.18 in). Cross-sectional area: 253.684 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 13.962 cm⁴, Iy = 3.005 cm⁴.
