Overview|Specifications|Applications|Finish Options|How to Measure|Order Checklist

Hot rolled channel, or C-channel, is a structural shape produced by passing heated steel through rollers, giving it a rougher surface finish. This A36 grade channel offers a balance of strength, ductility, and excellent weldability for general structural and fabrication purposes. It has a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, making it suitable for a wide range of load-bearing applications.

As a large structural profile, this C12 x 30.0 channel excels in heavy structural applications, building frames, trailer chassis, and industrial supports where significant load-bearing capacity and rigidity are required.

Specifications

  • Material: A36 Hot Rolled Steel
  • Standards: ASTM A36
  • Strength/Tensile: 58,000-80,000 PSI
  • Dimensions: C12 x 30.0 (12" Height x 3.170" Flange x 0.510" Web) x 20' Length
  • Finish: Hot Rolled Mill Finish
  • Certifications: MTR Available

Applications

  • Structural Framing: Cross-members and supports in buildings - provides excellent rigidity and load capacity.
  • Equipment Manufacturing: Bases and frames for heavy industrial machinery - strength and weldability allow for robust assembly.
  • Vehicle & Trailer Frames: Main chassis rails and supports - high strength for durable construction.
  • Material Handling: Frames for large conveyor systems and industrial carts - resists bending and torsional stress.

Target Users

Fabricators, construction contractors, and industrial maintenance teams rely on A36 Channel for its strength and versatility in structural projects throughout the Los Angeles area.

Finish Options

This product comes standard with a hot rolled mill finish, which may have a dark, scaled surface. This scale should be removed by grinding or blasting before painting for proper adhesion. For enhanced corrosion resistance, this channel can be primed, painted, or hot-dip galvanized after fabrication. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.

How to Measure

Structural channel is defined by its designation (e.g., C12 x 30.0). 'C' indicates a C-Channel, '12' is the nominal height (depth) in inches, and '30.0' is the weight in pounds per foot.

Example: To order this channel, specify "A36 Channel, C12 x 30.0 x 20 ft length".

Order Checklist

  • Product name and required dimensions (C12 x 30.0 x 20 ft)
  • Material specification and quantity
  • Confirm grade (A36) meets requirements
  • Surface finish requirements (Hot Rolled)
  • Certifications required (Mill Test Report)
  • Special handling or delivery requirements
