Product Description
The 200 x 90 x 30KG Parallel Flange Channel is a robust steel section designed for heavy-duty structural support across a wide range of commercial and industrial applications. Manufactured to BS EN 10025-2 S355JR, it provides superior strength and excellent load-bearing capabilities.
With a profile size of 200mm x 90mm and a weight of 30kg per metre, this parallel flange channel is commonly used in frameworks, platforms, bracing systems, and reinforced structural builds. Its parallel flanges allow for easier connection and bolting to flat surfaces compared to tapered channels, making it a preferred option for fabricators and engineers seeking consistency, strength, and versatility.
The 30 x 200 channel format offers excellent resistance to bending and torsion, making it ideal for use as a beam or lintel in large-scale projects. Thanks to its S355JR grade, the steel offers a higher yield strength than standard mild steel, ensuring long-lasting performance under pressure.

FAQ
What are the advantages of using a parallel flange channel over a tapered one?
Parallel flange channels (PFCs) offer uniform flange widths, making them easier to bolt to other structural elements. This improves alignment and connection strength, which is particularly useful in large steel assemblies.
Is the 200 x 90 x 30KG channel suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, when appropriately coated or galvanised, the S355JR steel used in this channel performs well in outdoor environments. It?s widely used in exposed structural applications such as bridges, platforms, and marine builds.
Can the channel be welded or cut to size on-site?
Absolutely. The 200 x 90 parallel flange channel can be cut, drilled, and welded using standard mild steel processing tools. For best results, cutting and welding should be done using appropriate PPE and equipment in accordance with site safety standards.
What is the approximate length of a standard supplied unit?
Standard supply lengths are typically 7.5m or 8m, but custom cuts can often be arranged. Always confirm with your supplier when ordering if a specific length is required for your project.
Is this channel section appropriate for use in mezzanine floor structures?
Yes, the 30kg/m weight and S355JR strength rating make it well-suited to carry heavy live and dead loads found in mezzanine floors, particularly in warehouse and industrial settings.
