Home » Product » Galvanized C Purlins

Introduction

Galvanized C purlin is a common C-section steel building material, which is pressed from galvanized steel strips. Its cross-sectional shape is similar to the English letter “C”.

Galvanized C purlin is widely used in scenarios that require long-term corrosion resistance, rapid construction or high load-bearing requirements, covering multiple fields such as industry, agriculture, civil construction and equipment support, due to its anti-corrosion, light weight and easy installation.

Galvanized C Purlins Product Advantages

Strong anti-corrosion ability

The surface adopts hot-dip galvanizing process, which has strong corrosion resistance and is suitable for harsh environments such as humidity and high corrosion.

Lightweight and high-strength

Light weight, reducing structural load, and at the same time has high bending strength (cold bending processing), strong bearing capacity.

Excellent cross-sectional performance

C-shaped cross-sectional design, excellent bending performance in the vertical direction, effectively bearing roof/wall loads, and ensuring structural stability.

Easy installation

Can be customized by cutting, punching, etc., and fixed on site by bolts, purlins or welding, with a short construction period and no need for large equipment.

Wide applicability

The choice of different coating thicknesses meets the anti-corrosion requirements of different projects; the choice of different materials (such as Q195/Q235/Q345, etc.) meets the strength requirements of different projects.

Purchasing Tips

  • Zinc Coating Selection: Z120 for dry environments; Z180 or higher is recommended for coastal, high-humidity, or industrial areas.
  • Thickness and Strength: For every 0.2mm increase in thickness, load-bearing capacity increases by approximately 15%, but cost increases by 8-10%. Select the appropriate coating based on structural calculations to avoid over-design.
  • Minimum Order Quantity and Delivery Time: The best unit price is available for standard specifications starting at 10 tons, with a production cycle of 10-18 days.
