Wieland-kessler strut158pg20-12ga Green Strut 1-5/8 in

Product Description

The WIELAND-KESSLER strut158pg20-12ga is a 12-gauge green-painted steel strut channel designed for structural support applications in mechanical, electrical, and plumbing installations. Measuring 1-5/8 inches square with elongated holes, this heavy-gauge channel provides a rigid mounting platform for pipe, conduit, ductwork, and equipment. At 20 feet in length and 37 pounds per length, it is suited for runs that require minimal splicing. The green finish provides corrosion resistance for general interior and select exterior applications. Licensed electricians, plumbers, HVAC contractors, and mechanical installers commonly specify this product for framing and support systems.

This strut channel is used in both residential and commercial construction where a durable, heavy-duty support structure is required. The 1-5/8-inch square profile and elongated hole pattern allow flexible positioning of beam clamps, pipe clamps, conduit hangers, and other standard strut hardware. The 12-gauge wall thickness makes it appropriate for heavier load requirements compared to standard 14-gauge channel. Typical applications include mechanical room pipe racks, electrical panel supports, HVAC equipment frames, and suspended ceiling grid systems.

Key Features

• 12-gauge steel construction for heavy-duty load support
• 1-5/8 inch square profile with elongated holes for flexible hardware positioning
• 20-foot length reduces the number of splices needed on long runs
• Green finish for corrosion resistance in general indoor and protected outdoor use
• Compatible with standard 1-5/8 inch strut fittings, clamps, and hardware

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for 1-5/8 inch strut channel systems using conventional beam clamps, pipe clamps, conduit hangers, and strut splice plates sized for 1-5/8 inch square channel.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed electricians, plumbers, or mechanical contractors in accordance with applicable NEC, IPC, or IFGC support-spacing requirements. Cut channel to length using a metal chop saw or reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade and deburr all cut edges before installing hardware. Ensure all mounting surfaces and anchor points are rated for the intended load before securing the channel. Wear appropriate PPE including gloves and eye protection when cutting or handling cut edges.
