CNP IRON DESCRIPTION
As the name implies, CNP Iron is a steel product in the profile steel category which has a physical shape like the letter C in cross section. In the Indonesian market, CNP iron is often referred to as CNP channel iron, purlin beam, C channel, lipped channel, or C profile. Thus, the names of CNP iron are indeed very diverse.
Channel C is made through a fabrication process of sheet iron plates and coiled iron plates. The iron plate that will be processed into C channel iron will go through a process of cutting, forming and pressing until it has a cross section like the letter C. Channel C usually has SPHC specifications or is made from black plate. Therefore, CNP iron is included in the flat product category, not the long product.
CNP iron has various sizes depending on the purpose of use. However, CNP 100, CNP 125, and CNP 150 are the most commonly used C channel sizes. Channel C has a standard length of 6 meters. Codes 100, 125, and 150 in the size of the C channel indicate the width of the CNP body. While the size of the height of the feet and ears will follow. In addition to these sizes, CNP iron is also available in sizes CNP 75 and CNP 200.
