Channel

MS Channel Steel refers to a type of structural steel with a "C" or channel-shaped cross-section. The term "MS" stands for Mild Steel, indicating that the steel is not alloyed with other metals and typically has a lower carbon content compared to other types of steel, making it more malleable and easier to weld.

Applications Uses

  • Structural supports
  • Frames for machinery
  • Automotive
  • Infrastructure
  • Railings and Fencing
Material Mild Steel
Size 150
Shape C Channel
Application Construction
Length 6 meter
  • Material: Made from mild steel, which has a relatively low carbon content, making it ductile and weldable.
  • Cross-Section: The C-shape provides high resistance to bending and torsional stresses. The dimensions (width, height, and thickness) can vary based on specific applications.
  • Grades: Available in different grades based on strength and ductility. Common grades include IS 2062 (E250, E300, E350).
  • Dimensions: Typically available in a range of sizes, with standard lengths (like 6m, 12m), and dimensions often specified in millimeters (e.g., 75x40x5 mm).
  • Weight: The weight per meter varies based on dimensions, which is essential for load calculations in construction.
  • High strength-to-weight ratio: MS channels provide a good balance of strength and weight, making them ideal for structural support.
  • Flexibility: Mild steel can be easily processed, welded, and formed into different shapes, providing flexibility in design.
  • Corrosion Resistance: While mild steel doesn't have the corrosion resistance of stainless steel, it still offers sufficient durability when treated or coated properly for many applications.
