Introduction:

MS Channel, short for Mild Steel Channel, is a type of structural steel element with a U-shaped cross-section. It is commonly used in construction and industrial applications due to its versatility, strength, and ease of fabrication. Unlike galvanized iron channels, MS channels are not coated with zinc and may require additional measures to prevent corrosion.
