OVERVIEW

Product Description

Stainless Steel T Profile / Patti is mainly used to seal and finish edges on furniture and other applications where two components join, such as worktops, wall panels, etc. These products can be rolled or extruded or even laser fused, ensuring excellent durability and precision.

T Patti / Profile products are manufactured to have excellent weldability and good corrosion resistance, making them ideal for use in machinery and equipment and other industrial purposes.

Composition limits for the grades rolled as T-profile are in the grade reference.

T-profile against angle

The T section stands a stem on the centre of a flange, so it is symmetrical about the stem and is used where a stiffener must not lean or where the profile is seen from both sides: edge trims, panel joints, worktop and counter edges, and the ribs on tanks and hoppers. An equal angle of the same leg length is the asymmetric alternative, cheaper to roll and easier to fix into a corner, but it twists under a load along the stem where the T does not. The single 50 x 50 x 5 mm section is rolled, annealed and pickled, in lengths to 6.4 metres.
