European Standard IPE AA Beam (Super Lightweight I-Section)

Ruicheng Steel supplies high-quality IPE AA Beams, also known as “Super Lightweight European I-Beams.”

The IPE AA series features the same height and flange width dimensions as the standard IPE but with thinner webs and flanges. This engineering adjustment results in a significantly lighter section weight. It is the ideal solution for engineering projects where weight saving is a priority or where loads are moderate. By choosing IPE AA, customers can achieve substantial cost savings on both steel tonnage and logistics while maintaining compliance with European structural standards.
