If you are having trouble installing your strut channel, consider installing a strut channel cover. Strut channel covers are made to cover the rough ends of the strut, creating a cleaner look. Fortunately, there are several different options for strut channel covers. Read on to learn more about some of the more common ones, and how to install them yourself. Once you’ve purchased a strut channel cover, you can attach it to your struts with a few simple tools.

A strut channel is a standardized structural system that is used for mounting, bracing, and connecting mechanical systems. It is typically made of stainless steel, aluminum, or fiberglass and comes in different hole patterns. Solid strut channel comes without any predrilled holes and must be drilled on-site. Punched strut channel features round holes at regular spacing on the channel, while the slotted strut channel has longer slots on a 4-inch center.

A strut is usually made from sheet metal that is folded into an open channel. It is often fitted with inward-curving lips to provide stiffness and a place to mount interconnecting components. Because unistruts are generally made from lightweight materials and corrosion-resistant steel, they are inexpensive and easy to install. With minimal training, you can also easily modify an existing installation and add your own custom design. It’s the perfect solution for a wide variety of projects.
