The UA profile 100 is a stiffening profile for metal stud walls, primarily used at doorways and in heavily loaded areas within stud walls with a 100 mm profile width. The bar is 3.00 m long and, according to the product description, has two rows of holes. Since the sheet thickness and manufacturer are not specified, please verify these details before purchasing.
It is aimed at drywall contractors and interior fitters who stiffen door openings or built-in components in metal stud walls; further profiles can be found in our Drywall Profiles category .
Typical uses of UA profiles and points you should clarify before buying:
UA profiles take over the loads from the door leaf and movement at door openings, which a normal stud profile alone should not be able to bear, and are firmly connected to the floor and ceiling with angles.
The profile width must match the framework, and suitable angles are needed for connection to the floor and ceiling.
The UA 100 is designed for walls with a 100 mm profile width; for narrower walls we also offer the UA 75 and UA 50.
For connection to floor and ceiling, there is the König mounting set for UA profiles UA 75/100 with 4 angles, 8 screws, 8 nuts and 8 washers.
UA profiles are usually made from 2 mm sheet steel; the sheet thickness, material, coating and manufacturer of this item are not specified in the tested documentation.
