U 75x40x4.76 Tecnometal · Weight & Dimensions

Tecnometal, cold-formed sections (Brazil) · 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 75x40x4.76 (UK / Australia)

The U 75x40x4.76 steel profile weighs 5.2 kg/m (3.50 lb/ft), has a depth of 75 mm (2.95 in), flange width 40 mm (1.57 in). Cross-sectional area: 663.268 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 54.136 cm⁴, Iy = 10.041 cm⁴.
