HALFEN Framing Channels and Halfen Bolts

heavy duty HALFEN framing channels, preferably hot-rolled, especially suitable for:

• heavy loads
• dynamic loads
• welding and steel structures

medium duty HALFEN framing channels, cold-rolled

• medium loads
• with only one bolt/threaded plate type
• compatible with the HALFEN POWERCLICK system 

light duty HALFEN framing channels, cold-rolled

• light loads
• compact channel dimensions

• The adjustable HALFEN channel-bolt system is an assembly and mounting system all in one
• Full flexibility in positioning and designing of the bolt connections
• Large choice of corrosion protection for different requirements:
• - Channels in stainless steel
  - Hot-dip galvanized channels
  - Pre-galvanized channels
• Quick assembly and adjustment of equipment and structural components
• Change or up-date entire projects with standard tools
• No specialist required to carry out modifications on-site
• Dust free and low noise levels when modification work is done on-site
• Corrosion protection is not compromised by bolting
• A large selection of standard channels with good load bearing characteristics. 

• Time consuming planning of inflexible bolted fixings 
• Costly manufacturing of bolt fixings
• Costly mechanical processing and corrosion protection work when upgrading already completed structural components i.e. when adjusting components on site

The hot rolling process makes these channels ideally suited to heavy loads.

With the CE mark HALFEN provides safety and an additional important quality feature. The CE marking with the declaration of performance include:

• Certification of production as well as the factory production control according to EN 1090-2 and EN 1090-1
• Design values of bearing capacity with predefined calculations and tests
• Certification of the HALFEN engineers according to EN 1090-1 for the planning preparation
• Quality assurance throughout the entire value-added chain
   

Toothed channels HZM

• Toothed profile mechanically interlocks with toothed bolt to allow high longitudinal loads of up to 27 kN 
• 4 channel sizes for maximum efficiency

Smooth channels HM

• Very high tensile loads of up to 31 kN can be transferred
• High longitudinal loads of up to 7.5kN are possible using nibbed T-bolts (only for steel)

Cold-rolled channels for lighter duty are available with holes or without holes

Smooth channels HL, HM

• For lower loads in longitudinal channel direction
• Economic due to large selection of channels

Toothed channels HZL, HZM

• For higher loads in longitudinal direction
• Non-slip connection through positive load transfer

• Quick assembly of supporting frames
• Adjustable on-site, due to flexible bolt positioning in the channel slot.
• Existing framework installations are easily altered or up-dated
• The corrosion protection of all equipment is not compromised by bolting
• No meticulous preliminary planning of drilling patterns necessary
• Construction tolerances can be compensated for site
• A large selection of material for low to high load requirements

• Time consuming planning of inflexible bolted fixings
• Costly manufacturing of bolting parts
• Costly preliminary or subsequent mechanical and corrosion protection work on existing structural components
• Preliminary or subsequent mechanical work on site i.e. drilling and welding

HALFEN System 52 heavy duty
Our framing system for heavy loads consists of the hot-rolled channel HM 52/34 and 10 assorted connection parts. For greater bending requirements the double channel HM 52/34 D can be used. System 52 is also available as a channel ring system, which is produced to customer’s specifications

The HALFEN system 52 is used for the assembly of heavy components, e.g. in tunnels or in utility tunnels. The basic profile is the framing channel HM 52/34 and for larger bending resistance requirements HM 52/34 D. The framing channels and fitting systems are available in both hot-dip galvanized finish or in A4 stainless steel.

HALFEN System 41 medium duty
The framing system for medium loads can be used in combination with all HALFEN 41 series framing channels. System 41 is also available as a channel ring system, which is made to the customer’s specifications

HALFEN System 36 light duty
System 36 is suitable for light load in interior spaces. The use of optimized support components makes an economic and flexible design possible.
Similar to System 36 System 28 is also suitable for light loads in interior spaces.
HALFEN System 36 (System 28) are used in support structures for cable-trays and pipes with a small nominal diameter, e.g.: supply lines for process and control engineering.
