products details
Ruicheng Steel is a specialized supplier of European Standard IPE Beams. IPE profiles are medium-width I-beams with parallel internal flange surfaces, distinguishing them from the tapered flanges found in IPN beams.
Due to their optimized cross-sectional efficiency and lighter weight compared to traditional beams, IPE profiles are the preferred choice in modern European construction projects. They allow for simpler mechanical connections (no tapered washers required) and are ideal for bending resistance in structural frameworks. We supply these beams in commercial lengths of 6m and 12m, or custom-cut to your specific project requirements.
Applications
IPE Beams are widely utilized in structural engineering due to their high strength-to-weight ratio:
-
Construction: Main support beams for residential and commercial buildings.
-
Industrial: Support structures for mezzanine floors and steel platforms.
-
Lintels: Load-bearing headers above openings in masonry.
-
Infrastructure: Light-weight bridges and architectural steelworks.
- Machinery: Truck chassis frames and agricultural machinery.
