Work Smarter with Edcon Steel

Plan Your Lengths: Structural channels are typically stocked in 9 m and 12 m lengths. Plan your project around these standard lengths to minimise off-cuts and save on cost. Our team can also precision-cut channels to your specifications, so you only buy (and pay for) the lengths you need.

Choose the Right Finish: Mill (raw) or primed channels work well for indoor or sheltered uses. We also offer post-fabrication galvanising for all PFC and channel products to suit outdoor or corrosion-sensitive applications. Learn more about that process here.

Cut & Handle Safely: Always wear proper PPE (gloves, eye protection, etc.) when cutting or handling steel. After cutting a channel, de-burr any sharp edges to prevent injuries and to ensure a clean fit during assembly. Don’t have the right tools? We can custom-cut your channel to exact lengths for you, in-store or as part of any online order.

Common Uses and Sectors: Structural Steel C-Section Channel

Structural steel channels are widely used across residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure projects thanks to their strength and versatility. In building construction, C-section channels often serve as critical support and framing members. They are commonly used as lintels above doors and windows, as floor joists and roof purlins/rafters, and as bearers or bracing members in frameworks. The flat backside of a channel makes it easy to bolt against walls, concrete, or timber, so channels are ideal for forming columns, beams, and frames where a flush-mount structural element is needed.

Thanks to their high strength-to-weight ratio, structural steel channels can support heavy loads (such as roof trusses or mezzanine floors) without adding unnecessary bulk. This makes them a popular choice for outdoor and secondary structures including carports, pergolas, garages, and sheds.
