LYSAGHT® Cold Formed Sections

Product Description and Features

LYSAGHT® Cold Formed Sections are roll-formed from zinc coated and uncoated material.  The strength of LYSAGHT® Cold Formed Sections has been increased from 240 and 250MPa to 300MPa for both the zinc coated and uncoated products, increasing the structural capacity of the steel channel and angle sections.  These sections have many uses in the construction, general fabrication and home handyman fields.

• Many combinations of sections are possible
• Sizes of several plain channels enables them to nest readily
• Normal box sections are easily fabricated
• Machine controlled dimensions allow a neat fit and provide an easy method of assembly for sliding joints
