Description
6061-T6 extruded Aluminum American standard channel is an excellent candidate for most processing techniques and both interior and exterior applications. American standard channels are lightweight, have a smooth finish, and tapered legs meeting the specifications for AMS-QQ-A 200. Common applications include trailers, walkways, ramps, and structural support. Since it is corrosion resistant, this is an excellent choice wherever strength is required.
