LGS C studs & U tracks

What it is

Studs and tracks are the building blocks of light gauge steel framing. Lipped C studs carry the vertical loads in walls and form truss chords and noggings; U tracks hold the studs top and bottom. Produced on CNC roll-forming lines straight from the 3D model, each member is cut to length, punched and printed with its position.

Light gauge steel sections — Lipped C, U track, joist, top-hat and back-to-back.

Steel and coating

Material
Market	Steel	Coating
Australia / NZ	G550 / G450 / G300 (AS 1397)	Z275, AZ150, Z450
United States	ASTM A1003 ST50H / ST33H	G60, G90
