Strut Channel & Electrical Support
The continuous-slot channel that holds up the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems in every commercial and industrial building.
Strut channel — also called framing channel — is a slotted cold-formed steel profile used to support, hang, and brace mechanical, electrical, and structural systems throughout commercial and industrial buildings. Tier-1 manufacturers like Eaton B-Line and Thomas & Betts ship millions of feet a year.
TEKFAB builds the highest-throughput strut line in the industry. The Strut Channel Roll Forming Line pairs a twenty-station rollformer with the ACCU-RACK closed-loop flying carriage system (US Patent 11,318,546). Up to five hydraulic press modules and one cutoff press ride a single rigid carriage that accelerates to match line speed, holds position while the dies fire, and resets between hits — the mill never slows down.
The line runs 9 standard widths from 7/8" to 3-1/4" base, in 14 and 12 ga, on hot-rolled, pre-galvanized, HRPO, or 304/316 stainless, holding ±0.020" hole tolerance at production speed.
