Solar Energy Mounting System Profiles

W Profiles are frequently preferred in many structural projects with their such features as durability and lightness. These profiles are also used as solar energy supporting structures and produced within the American standard of ASTM.

Thanks to our years of experience and R&D studies, we assist our customers choose the appropriate profile for the high-loads and environmental conditions that solar panel structures are exposed to and we suggest the most suitable option for them.

W profiles are produced by the hot rolling process and prepared for the shipment in requested special lengths and packing conditons by our customers.

Grades and Strength Comparisons

We are producing W Beams in accordance with all structural steel grade standards.

Specific grades with high mechanical properties are available in our meltshop as well.

High mechanical properties contribute mounting structures to protect its durability for long period of time in corrosive environments.

The following sheet below represents W6 sections by equivalent strength.
