C/Z Hat Channels
C/Z hat channels in solar structures refer to structural components that help in constructing solar panel mounting systems along with other structures. C/Z hat channels are quite popular owing to their cross-sectional shapes and C and Z-shaped channels. In solar panel mounting systems, these channels are leveraged to create the support structures or frameworks that keep the entire panel in place.
Owing to their high tensile strength, various industries already using a hat section solar structure for energy optimization use C/Z channels to ensure secure mounting of solar panels. Moreover, these can also withstand different environmental conditions including snow loads and wind. Both these channels are produced from aluminium and galvanised steel that has the ability to resist corrosion and extend their longevity. It depends on the industry to choose between C & Z channels based on the specific structural needs of the installation.
Utkarsh India Limited, a pioneer supplier and manufacturer of solar structures, has an age-old reputation for delivering top-tier C/Z hat channels, ideal for multiple applications. While C channels basically refer to metal channels having a cross-section resembling C, Z channels are generally used together with C channels. The latter paves the way for efficient load distribution and is also useful for creating a rigid framework in combination with other channels.
By offering a comprehensive range of solar structures built with C/Z channels, Utkarsh has gained recognition among its reputed clients. State-of-the-art beam processing lines provide quick access to punching, cutting as well as hot-dip galvanization of C/Z hat channels. By deploying stringent quality measures, we have successfully manufactured tons of hat-section solar structures for our esteemed customers.
For decades, we have engrossed ourselves in the realm of manufacturing and supplying, Utkarsh boasts of providing a supreme quality range of ground-mounted fixed tilt and other solar structures. Operating all across India, we have recently set foot towards our global expansion, serving top-notch products for solar panels.
