      What is the interior width? Can I fit a 2x4 in there... is it 1 1/2" inside?
      BySep 25, 2024
      1 Answer | 
      Answer This Question

      The product description states that the metal strut channel is 1-5/8 inches wide. A standard 2x4 actually measures 1.5" x 3.5", so it would fit within the 1-5/8" interior width of the strut channel.

      How much weight is it rated for?

      Answer This Question

      This channel strut is designed for supporting and framing lightweight structural loads. While the specifications don't list a specific weight capacity, it's important to note that it's intended for lighter applications like pipe, conduit, ceiling grids, racks, duct and cable tray supports, trapeze supports, and seismic bracing. For heavier structural applications, you'll likely need a different type of support.

      This says its silver. Does that mean its painted? Raw steel? Zinc plated? Pure elemental AG? Something else?

        The strut channel has an electro-galvanized finish. This provides superior protection from moisture and gives it a silver appearance. It is also paintable if desired.

        Strong, versatile strut and hoist trolley track.
        This 12 ga strut is very strong and more than adequate when properly anchored, as a hoist track for lifting and positioning equipment. I originally planned to mount this 4ft strut directly to my shop ceiling using low profile head screws. However, there is too little clearance above a four-wheel trolley, and strut support brackets were required. The brackets and trolley fit well, and the trolley rolls smoothly from end to end. Bolts can be inserted at the ends of the strut to act as a stop for the trolley. The trolley I used is rated for up to 600lb, however the strut assembly load is limited by the way it is anchored. I used four 5/16" x 4"long structural screws placed 12" inches apart, and it will easily carry 185lbs. To prevent distortion to the sheetrock ceiling, I used a hard wood plate. See photos

        Awesome steel super strut
        This is also know as a super strut to most of us in the trades. This is very heavy duty. It has the oval hole on one side and the channeled opening on the other for using the proper spring nits that are sold separately. I use these all the time for many different industrial and residential hangers for hot air furnaces. I use 3/8” bolts and lags with wishers. These is 12gauge ans will last a life time. I highly recommend this product

        Quality and heavy duty
        This is a heavy duty strut channel. All the edges are free from jagged edges and the metal is smooth. I do a lot of projects in my garage and with 2 of these slotted channels I can support, suspend, prop or do pretty much any thiing that helps me with my project. Because the edges are not sharp I can use light rope to hang smaller things from it, and because it is 12 gauge I can use heavy wire rope to hold heavy loads. Endlessly useful piece of metal!

        Well made Strut Channel. Heavy 12 Gauge Steel. Corrosion resistant / plated. Great for many things....
        If you are looking at strut channel, you probably know what it is already. I use it to support HVAC equipment. This one is plated (looks like electroplate) which makes it a little corrosion resistant which is probably fine unless you are near salt water. The slots are a little wider than 1/2-inch, so you they fit 1/2 inch threaded rod. The ends were cut cleanly and free of burrs or other nastiness. The one I received was just a hair longer than 4 feet (maybe 1/32-inch over). The short pieces like this are convenient for small projects. The metal is stamped with the brand and gauge every couple of feet in case anyone wants you to be able to show what it is.

        Endless Uses!!!
        These 12 gauge slotted super struts are strong. The slots make on the fly assembly very forgiving. I needed a way to carry a chainsaw on a tractor without spending a lot of money on a designated chainsaw carrier. I managed to fabricate a carrier with these struts, a used restaurant sandwich counter cutting board and some common hardware; nuts, 1/2" threaded rod, screws and some washers. After using these super struts, my mind was racing with infinite applications where these would come in very handy. It's better than an erector set because you can put your ideas to work in the real world.

        Handy Dandy.
        This piece of Uni-Strut came in handy. More commonly used to secure electrical pipes and fixtures I needed to go over a piece of conduit on the wall. This uni-strut was a perfect spacer. Uni-Strut was a great option. Using Uni-Strut made installation easier. Once mounted on the wall with anchors I used standard Uni-Strut compatible hardware. It made installing and adjusting very simple. It was easy to cut and file. The length was the right amount for the job.

        Versatel Erector Set Like Construction
        These Strut Channels are a very useful way to create frames and supports erector set style. It's both the simple design of the channel itself and the many accessory ways to fasten and joint them with other things like motors, lights, heating and cooling equipment. I have used them for electrical equipment the way they were originally meant to be used, and I have used them for other areas like tie down points on the roof of my camper for a canoe.

        Great Heavy Duty
        1-5/8 in. 12 Gauge Metal Strut Channel, Slotted Back, Pre-Galvanized Metal U-Bracket, 2-Foot Length. This is some heavy channel. It has a nice finish inside and out with no burs or sharp edges to cut yourself. These are not that cheap stuff, the slots are cut perfect too. I got this for a variety of projects to bolt and weld together as well as its intended uses. One project I'm working on is a lift in the garage to hook a shelf to so I can load it with stuff to hoist to the ceiling. The channel/brackets are going to be screwed to the ceiling floor joists and have pulleys and cable to hoist the shelf up to get the stuff out of the way to make floor space. These are very heavy duty and well made!

Our Newhouse Electric 1-5/8 in. 12 Gauge Metal Strut Channel is a standard half-slot metal U-bracket for supporting and framing lightweight structural loads on your construction site. You can use it for a variety of applications, including pipe, conduit, ceiling grids, racks, duct and cable tray supports, trapeze supports, seismic bracing, and other general framing uses. Labor and materials are at a premium on any building site. Our strut channels are designed to help you get the maximum number of framing and support applications with the minimum amount of labor and pieces. These channel struts have smooth surfaces, free from steel scales. They have an electro-galvanized zinc finish that helps reinforce strength and resist corrosion.

Our strut brackets also UL-listed and come with a 2-year warranty. I have bolted , welded , set in concrete and attached with VHB . There's several ways to clamp or bolt to this channel and the Home Depot has them all.
