U150×79×2 mm Steel U Profile — S450GD+ZM Magnelis
The 150x79x2mm steel U profile is a cold roll-formed plain channel: 150 mm web, 79 mm flanges and 2 mm thickness, 4.71 kg/m. Roll-formed to order in Magnelis S450GD+ZM steel, it is used as tracks, edge and closure channels and in general fabrication. This page shows the size in Magnelis strip S450GD+ZM: zinc–aluminium–magnesium coating, ZM310 or ZM350 coating mass, minimum yield 450 MPa.
Made to Order — Roll Formed
This profile is roll-formed to order in your length (1–25 m). The minimum order is 5000 kg per size and material. Add your sizes to a quote request and we confirm lead time and price.

Applications & Usage
U 150x79x2 is used as top and bottom tracks in light steel framing, edge and closure channels for panels, guides and machine guards. Magnelis is often specified for solar mounting structures and agricultural buildings in corrosive environments. Each size is roll-formed to order in lengths from 1 to 25 m. The minimum order is 5000 kg per size and material — add your sizes to a quote request and we confirm lead time and delivered price.

Weight and section properties are nominal values from the mill catalogue table. Values marked ≈ are calculated from the section centerline.
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, S450GD+ZM310 / ZM350). Deflection is not checked and usually governs long spans. Indicative only — confirm with a project calculation.
| Span | Max UDL |
|---|---|
| 2 m | ≈ 17.69 kN/m |
| 3 m | ≈ 7.86 kN/m |
| 4 m | ≈ 4.42 kN/m |
| 5 m | ≈ 2.83 kN/m |
| 6 m | ≈ 1.97 kN/m |
