Channel steel is a long steel with a grooved cross-section, a carbon structural steel for construction and machinery, and a section steel with a complex cross-section and a grooved shape.

EN 10279:2000 hot rolled steel channels specification also applies to EN 10206-1:2000, EN 10163-3:2000.

Channel steel is mainly used in building structure, curtain wall engineering, mechanical equipment and vehicle manufacturing. Except for special requirements, it is delivered in hot rolled or forged condition; when used as die steel, it is usually delivered in hot rolled, normalized, normalized plus tempered condition.

Carbon steel H Beam are ideal for structural applications and are widely used in the construction of buildings and bridges, and the manufacturing, petrochemical, and transportation industries.

JIS G3192 high quality channel steel is ideal for structural applications and is widely used in building and bridge construction, as well as in manufacturing, petrochemical and transport industries.

ASTM A588 steel beam not only has high tensile and yield strengths, but also exhibits good resistance to atmospheric corrosion due to its low copper content. Given its high strength, it is lighter in weight than A36 steel without any reduction in strength. At the same time, it is the best material for outdoor applications and has an orange-brown surface. It is mostly used for bridges, buildings and construction equipment; frames for automobiles and machinery; and transmission and communication towers.

German standard H-beam DIN1025-2H is a new type of economic construction steel.

H-beam cross-sectional shape is economical and reasonable, good mechanical properties, rolling at all points on the cross-sectional extension is more uniform, internal stress is small, compared with ordinary I-beam, has the advantages of large cross-sectional modulus, light weight, metal saving, can make the building structure reduce 30-40%; and because of its legs inside and outside parallel, leg end is right angle, assembling Combined into members, it can save welding and riveting workload up to 25%.

Commonly used in large buildings (such as factory buildings, high-rise buildings, etc.), bridges, ships, lifting machinery, equipment foundations, brackets, foundation piles, etc., which require large bearing capacity and good cross-sectional stability.

ASTM A6 is the American Standard for carbon structural plate, this standard applies to riveted, bolted and welded structures for bridges and buildings, as well as general purpose structural steel quality carbon steel sections, plates and bars.

A572-50 steel i beam is widely used in construction & building applications for it can provide more strength per unit of weight. Its low content of alloy elements such as columbium & vanadium optimize the properties in strength and atmospheric corrosion. Owing to its high strength of 50,000 ksi yield strength, A572-50 steel I sections are increasingly replacing common carbon steel beam like A36 which should be thicker to satisfy the strength requirement.

ASTM 572 Steel I section is available in other grades like 42, 55 & 60. Please find the specific chemical components in the table below.

ASTM A36 h beam is a common wide flange beam used in construction and machinery for its medium strength. Low carbon content makes it easy to be welded, machined as well as formed. Therefore, it is often employed by light applications where strength need is not so important.
