Light guage steel framing product spec sheet.

Offering light but robust design of all components makes our steel framing solution ideal for housing projects with particular delivery requirements. Your source for light gauge steel truss systems. Typical uses for hemmed angle include bridging bracing blocking and other situations that would require light gauge angles. For over 40 years our commitment to innovation in cold formed steel also known as light gauge steel precision manufacturing uncompromising quality and exemplary customer service have defined the howick way.

The sections can be made available in 3 m 4 m 5 m and 6 m standard lengths. The american iron and steel institute committee on framing standards has developed this code of standard practice for cold formed steel structural framing code of standard practice to address trade practices for design fabrication and installation of formed steel structural cold framing products. Light gauge steel framing systems are made from 55 al zn alloy coated zincalume steel az150 g550 550 mpa minimum yield strength complying with as 1397 and is 15961. Howick is a pioneer in the technology of precision light steel roll forming machines.

In addition to angles steeler offers hemming on most 25 gauge products such as sound resilient. No longer just studs tracks and headers. With today s demanding architectural designs intricate roof lines and aggressive schedules light gauge steel trusses have become a popular product for architects engineers builders and developers. 54mil 16ga 68mil 14ga and 97mil 12ga products are produced with 50ksi steel unless otherwise noted.
