Steel Channel definitions, applications, types according to the European (UPN/UPE) and American specifications (AISC – C & MC), selection considerations, and dimensional range (sizes and weights).

Current table represents European standard U (UPN, UNP) channels, UPN steel profile (UPN beam), specifications, properties, dimensions. Manufactured according to standards :

UPN 50 x 25 x 5 UPN 50 x 25 x 5* UPN 50 UPN 50* UPN 60 x 30 x 6 UPN 60 x 30 x 6* UPN 65 UPN 65* UPN 80 UPN 80* 0.89 1.78

Stainless steel UPN profiles are used in all kinds of industrial applications, machinery and equipment construction. The use of stainless steel profiles is characterized by high design flexibility, fast and cost-effective construction (with the …

UPN or UNP is the short form for standardized channel sections according to EN 10365 with tolerances according to EN 10279: 2000. UPN in stainless steel are used in all kind of industrial applications, machinery and equipment building.

The UPN 100 section has an area of 1350mm 2. The below table outlines the UPN 100 section properties including the torsion constant as well as moment of inertia and plastic modulus properties.

Steel channel has been classified into "C" and "U" types depending on its outlook. Hence there are two standards to show the channel dimensions - UPE & UPN. UPE is for the C channel steel with parallel flanges while UPN for the U channel steel with tapered flanges.

ASTM A529-50 carbon-manganese steel channel is a little stronger than common A36 channel sections, which allows for light weight for the strength.

IPN - UPN profiles (irons) are also used extensively in projects such as viaducts, prefabricated buildings, light steel structures, bridges and passages (underpass and overpass).

UPN Steel Channels from Madar Building Materials offer superior strength, versatility, and affordability for your construction and engineering projects. Choose from a wide range of sizes and thicknesses to meet your specific needs.
