Due to its high output, section rolling is today the most common production method for making open sections. Increasing demands for high strength lightweight structural components require more and more complex cold rolled sections made from thinner gauges and higher tensile materials.

Advantages of cold rolled sections

•Large variety of shapes 

•High load capacity to weight ratios 

•Integration of the punching/perforating processes into the roll forming process 

•Sections produced in materials with various surface finishes e.g. pre-coated strip 

•Lower production costs
