PFC - British parallel flange channels

PFC channel steel is normally called a channel or a “C-section”. Low temperature impact testing is available across the range. Hot Rolled Structural Steel sections produced by Arcelor are manufactured in accordance with the requirements of Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 3679.For information on manufacturing tolerances please refer to AS/NZS 3679.1.When used for lintels, they have a bottom plate welded to it that takes the outer bricks or 2 channels are bolted back to back with 100 mm spacers.This can support both leafs of a Parallel flange channel.

We supply parallel flange rolled steels channels (PFC) to the construction industry. 

Grades other than shown below may also be available depending upon section and quantity requirements.Hot rolled channel steel are described by their depth, width and weight per metre in kilograms, eg. 150 x 75 x 18 PFC.
