Profile Section
40x40x2mm S235JR Uncoated Steel Omega Profile
The 40x40x2mm steel Omega (hat) profile is cold roll-formed to EN 10162 with a 40 mm height, 40 mm crown and 2 mm sheet thickness, weighing a nominal 2.53 kg/m. Produced to order in uncoated S235JR steel, its outward feet provide a flat fixing face on both sides — the standard rail for solar panel mounting, facade furring and sheet-metal substructures. This variant is uncoated cold-rolled structural strip in grade S235JR (EN 10025), minimum yield about 235 MPa. The surface is bare — specify shop painting or hot-dip galvanizing in the quote when the profile will be used outdoors.
Made to Order — Roll Formed
This profile is roll-formed to order in your exact length (1–15 m; longer on project basis). Minimum production run is approx. 3000 kg per size and grade. Add your sizes to a quote request and our team confirms lead time and pricing within one business day.

Applications & Usage
Omega 40x40x2 mounts solar panels on trapezoidal and sandwich roofs, levels facade cladding as a furring profile, stiffens large sheet-metal panels, and builds conveyor and machine substructures. Both feet sit flat on the support, spreading load evenly and allowing fast one-sided fixing. S235JR is the general structural grade for indoor frames, painted purlins, and profiles that will be hot-dip galvanized after roll forming. At a nominal 2.53 kg/m and cut-to-length production from 1 to 15 m, material usage is optimized with no offcuts on site. Minimum production run is approximately 3000 kg per size and grade — add your sizes to a quote request and our team confirms exact tonnage, lead time and delivered pricing.

Indicative elastic section properties computed from the nominal centerline (thin-walled, corner radii ignored). For preliminary sizing only — not a substitute for a stamped structural calculation.
Indicative load span (single span, simply supported)
Allowable uniformly-distributed load (kN/m) limited by elastic bending about the strong axis (γ = 1.5 on yield, S235JR). Deflection is not checked and usually governs long spans. Indicative only — confirm with a project calculation.
