U/C Profile

U/C Profile

In the industrial sector, U/C profiles are widely used and highly functional structural elements
with versatile application possibilities. They enhance the quality and functionality of the materials they are
used with. Thanks to the advantages and conveniences they provide, they are among the preferred structural
components in various projects.

The most common usage area is in partition walls. U and C profiles are used in different applications depending
on needs and requirements. They are named according to the bending and shaping of sheets produced with
rollforming technology.

U/C profiles are preferred both in the construction sector and in manufacturing. In addition to
wall partitions, they are also used in beams, especially in stair beams. Examples of usage areas include:

• Used in wall beams
• Found in beams under staircases
• Used in protective areas along wall edges
• Applied in ceilings
• Used in machine areas to separate frames or create a decorative look

U/C profiles use a back-to-back assembly method, enabling them to function as columns or beams. They come in
various sizes and dimensions to suit different sectors and applications. The most common industries where
U/C profiles are used include construction, industrial equipment and structures, metal manufacturing, steel
structures, building supports, and the automotive sector.

In gypsum board partition walls, U/C profiles provide excellent flexibility, increasing resistance
to dynamic forces. Compared to brick walls, they are approximately nine times lighter, which helps improve
building flexibility during natural disasters like earthquakes, reducing risks. They also ensure perfect
compatibility with gypsum board partitions, providing excellent sound, heat, and fire insulation.

Advantages of U/C Profiles

• Quick and practical installation
• Reduces labor costs due to fast and easy application
• Saves both time and money
• Prevents space loss in structures thanks to gypsum board partitions
