DESCRIPTION

Steel channel is a hot-rolled structural shape designed to provide strength and load-bearing capability in a compact, efficient profile. The 4″ wide steel channel with a nominal weight of 4.5 lb per foot features a C-shaped cross section that delivers reliable support for light- to medium-duty framing, bracing, and reinforcement applications. Manufactured from structural carbon steel, this channel offers durability, dimensional consistency, and dependable performance in fabrication and construction environments.

Applications:
4″ steel channel is commonly used in structural and fabrication applications, including:
• Structural framing and light-duty supports
• Equipment frames and machinery components
• Bracing and reinforcement applications
• Trailer frames and material handling equipment
• Platforms, walkways, and supports
• General construction and fabrication projects

Advantages:
• Lightweight structural solution: 4.5 lb./ft provides efficient strength-to-weight performance
• Durable construction: Hot-rolled steel offers toughness and long service life
• Versatile design: Channel shape allows easy welding, bolting, and fabrication
• Cost-effective: Reduced weight lowers material and handling costs
• Standard structural shape: Consistent dimensions for reliable integration

Summary:
The 4″ wide x 4.5 lb steel channel is a lightweight, versatile structural component ideal for framing, bracing, and general fabrication applications where dependable strength, ease of fabrication, and economical performance are required.

* Prices are subject to change without notice due to fluctuations in the metals market. | All “Value Length” and “Value Pack” item measurements are subject to standard mill tolerances. | Products may be manufactured several thousandths of an inch over or under the stated dimensions and still be within acceptable mill tolerances. All bar, tube, structural, pipe, sheet, plate, and similar products sold on our website are custom cut to the lengths and sizes selected by the customer at the time of purchase. These are not stocked as pre-cut items. Because each order is cut specifically to customer specifications, all cut materials are considered custom products and are not eligible for cancellation, return, or exchange once production has begun. Our standard cutting tolerances are:

  • Length: +0.125″ / -0.062″
  • During the cutting process, the saw blade removes approximately 1/16″ (kerf) of material. This is a normal part of the manufacturing process and is already included within the stated cutting tolerances.
