Technical Regulation DIN 1026-1: Channels with Tapered Flanges
The DIN 1026-1 standard regulates the production of hot-rolled U-shaped steel profiles characterized by a slope on the inner faces of the flanges. This specification covers a range of metal products with section heights from 30 mm to 400 mm. Technical requirements for the chemical composition and mechanical properties of the steel grades used are defined in the sixth section of the normative document.
It is important to note that the provisions of DIN 1026-1 do not apply to channels with parallel flanges; for such products, the profile standard DIN 1026-2 is applied. Experts from EV Group China recommend strictly adhering to the profile geometry when designing load-bearing metal structures.
Technical Regulation DIN 1026-2: Channels with Parallel Flanges
The DIN 1026-2 standard defines requirements for hot-rolled U-shaped sections whose geometry provides for parallel flanges. The scope of the standard is limited to products with profile heights in the range from 80 mm to 400 mm. Parameters for the steel grades permitted for use are regulated in section 6.
This standard is specialized and does not apply to channels with tapered flanges, which are regulated by the requirements of DIN 1026-1. Specialists at EV Group China ensure the supply of certified rolled products that comply with current DIN tolerances.
