CUT TO A CUSTOM LENGTH? MAY SAVE ON SHIPPING
HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT CUT?
Some cutting jobs allow us to use ground shipping rather than LTL, yielding significant freight savings. A customer service associate will contact you to confirm the cut list and shipping and freight costs prior to finalizing your order. eg - 4 cuts per stick x 5ft per section
Features:
- Product dimensions are 1 5/8" wide x 1 3/8" tall x 12 ga. thick, solid.
- Punched holes are also available for ease of installation
- This channel type provides a shorter alternative to its closest comparable, P1000.
- UL and CSA listed
- Made in the USA

Load Data:
- All beam and column load data pertains to carbon steel and stainless steel channels.
- Load tables apply only to UNISTRUT brand channel. Look for "UNISTRUT" on the product.
- Load tables and charts are constructed to be in accordance with the SPECIFICATION FOR THE DESIGN OF COLD-FORMED STEEL STRUCTURAL MEMBERS 2007 EDITION published by the AMERICAN IRON AND STEEL INSTITUTE USING ASD METHOD.
- Loads are based on 33 ksi steel cold formed to 42 ksi.
- Safety Factor to Yield Strength is 1.67 for Beam Loads and 1.80 for Column Loads.
- Beam loads are based on a simple beam and are given as a total uniform load (W) in pounds. For proper calculation procedures, refer to our Beam Load Calculation Guide under Resources.
- For bearing loads, reference our Bearing Loads Page.
