Strut Channel Type C

• Cold formed channel
• Strut channels for medium to heavy applications
• For individual fastening or for efficiently constructing pipe or tube routes

Strut channels are usually formed from metal sheet, folded over into an open channel shape with inwards-curving lips to provide additional stiffness and as a location to mount interconnecting components. Increasingly, strut channel is being constructed from fiberglass, a highly corrosion-resistant material that's known for its lightweight strength and rigidity. Strut usually has holes of some sort in the base, to facilitate interconnection or fastening strut to underlying building structures.
 

APPLICATION: 

Strut channel is used to mount, brace, support, and connect lightweight structural loads in building construction. These include pipes, electrical and data wire, mechanical systems such as ventilation, air conditioning, and other mechanical systems.

Strut channel is also used for other applications that require a strong framework, such as workbenches, shelving systems, equipment racks, etc. Specially made sockets are available to tighten nuts, bolts, etc. inside the channel, as normal sockets are unable to fit through the opening.
