INTRODUCTION

The Unistrut Metal Framing

system and related products have

been used in the industrial sector

for several generations.

Currently manufactured by

Atkore International, Unistrut

struts, fittings, channels, planks,

and other products continue to

find a home in many types of

industrial environments. Let’s

examine the Unistrut product

line in more detail.

In 1924, Charles Attwood invented Unistrut, "the original metal framing system."

This weldless system provided industries with an easily adjustable metal framing

that quickly came to be used by companies across the land.

Since these early days, the Unistrut line has been substantially expanded to include

a wide array of support system products.

WHAT IS UNISTRUT?

THE UNISTRUT

ADVANTAGE

One of the most attractive

features of the Unistrut Metal

Framing system is the ease

with which it can be assembled

and disassembled.

No welding or drilling

equipment is needed to secure

the materials. The bolts can be

tightened with a wrench.

This is a characteristic of many

Unistrut products.

PRODUCTS

There are a number of products in the

Unistrut line—and the number

continues to increase. Unistrut

Defender, a corrosion-resistant

framing system, is the latest addition,

introduced in 2014.

The Unistrut line includes the

following:

1. Unistrut Metal Framing

2. Telestrut Telescoping Strut

3. United Interlock Grating

4. Roofwalks Rooftop Walkway

METAL FRAMING

Unistrut Metal Framing provides a support

system with wide applications. This system

can be used to support switch boxes,

pipework, HVAC units, and much more.

The system is composed of channels, bolts,

and spring nuts. As previously noted, no

welding or drilling is required to hold the

materials together.

Fifteen different channel designs are

available.

TELESTRUT

TELESCOPING

STRUT

The Telestrut Telescoping Strut

system allows assemblers to put

together a number of different

support structures, including but not

limited to racks, shelves, and sign

supports.

The system is chiefly composed of

three-sided infinitely adjustable

channels and four-sided

incrementally adjustable tubing.

These can be secured with rivets,

bolts, nuts, gravity pins, or similar

elements.

In many industrial environments, it is

essential to provide safe paths for workers

to walk along. The United Interlock Plank

Grating System does just this.

The United Interlock Plank Grating

System is composed of durable yet

lightweight planks that can be laid along

many surfaces, including catwalks,

scaffolding planks, mezzanines, and

pedestrian ramps.

Slotted-smooth surface, anti-skid surface,

and smooth surface planks are available.

UNITED

INTERLOCK

GRATING

HVAC technicians and other maintenance professionals frequently need to

access the roof in order to reach important equipment. Roofwalks Rooftop

Walkways gives them a walking surface that keeps them from accidentally

damaging the roofing.

Roofwalks Rooftop Walkways are assembled from planks that can fit onto

virtually any kind of roof,

including standing seam roofs.

Roofwalks planks are made

from aluminum or galvanized

steel.
