Profile Section
The 280x72x3.5mm steel U profile is a cold roll-formed plain channel to EN 10162 with a 280 mm web, 72 mm flanges and 3.5 mm sheet thickness, weighing a nominal 11.65 kg/m. Produced to order in galvanized DX51D+Z steel, the open unlipped face slides cleanly over panels and boards, making it the standard track, edge and closure channel in light steel framing and general fabrication — supplied cut to your exact length.
U 280x72x3.5 serves as top and bottom tracks in light steel framing, edge and closure channels on sandwich panels and trapezoidal sheets, sliding-gate and door guides, machine guards, and cable or pipe routing in industrial fit-outs. Roll forming keeps the channel straight and uniform over the full length, so profiles arrive ready to fix. At a nominal 11.65 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 500 kg per size and coating — add your sizes to a quote request and our team confirms exact tonnage, lead time and delivered pricing.
