Profile Section
140x60x2.5mm DX51D+Z Galvanized Steel Sigma Profile
The 140x60x2.5mm steel Sigma profile is a cold roll-formed section to EN 10162 with a stiffened, indented 140 mm web, 60 mm flanges with 20 mm edge lips and 2.5 mm sheet thickness, weighing a nominal 6.21 kg/m. Produced to order in galvanized DX51D+Z steel, the Σ geometry moves the shear centre towards the section centroid — higher load capacity and less twist than an equivalent C profile at the same weight. This variant is pre-galvanized forming-grade strip DX51D+Z275 to EN 10346. It is specified for formability and a zinc coating, not for a stated structural yield — use S350GD+Z when the profile is load-bearing.
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
Sigma 140x60x2.5 is the weight-optimized choice for solar tracker and fixed-tilt rafters, long-span purlins, racking and shelving uprights, and light steel structures where every kilogram of steel and foundation load counts. The indented web raises buckling resistance, allowing thinner material for the same performance. DX51D+Z275 suits non-structural tracks, edge channels, hat sections and light fabrication where the section must form easily and arrive already galvanized. At a nominal 6.21 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.
Load guidance is provided for structural grades (S235JR, S355JR, S350GD+Z). DX51D+Z275 is a forming grade with no defined structural yield.
