Frequently Asked Questions
What is an UPE profile?
UPE is the standard European U-channel with parallel flange faces per EN 10365 (DIN 1026-2). Sizes run from UPE 80 (7.9 kg/m) to UPE 400 (72.2 kg/m). Channels are used for frames, rails, edge beams, and as paired sections.
How do I read the UPE table?
h and b are the section height and flange width in mm, G is the weight per meter, A the cross-section area, Ix/Wx the moment of inertia and section modulus about the strong axis, and Iy/Wy the same about the weak axis. Click any size for the full data sheet with a worked deflection example.
Which standard defines UPE profiles?
UPE channels are defined in EN 10365 (DIN 1026-2) with dimensional tolerances per EN 10279. The values in this table are the standard published section properties used in structural design. Unlike the older UPN series, UPE flanges are parallel, which makes bolted connections simpler — no tapered washers needed.
Values are entered from the governing standard’s published tables and cross-checked programmatically against its mass and section formulas before publication. Spotted an error? Write to advertising@metalabout.net — verified corrections ship within days. About
