U 150 x 18,2 KS · Weight & Dimensions

KS, hot-rolled sections · 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.

Also known as: U 150 x 18,2 (UK / Australia)

The U 150 x 18,2 steel profile weighs 18.2 kg/m (12.24 lb/ft), has a depth of 150 mm (5.91 in), flange width 75 mm (2.95 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,322.92 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 863.024 cm⁴, Iy = 132.925 cm⁴.
