Keilprofile

Keilprofile, also known as wedge profiles or tapered sections, are structural components characterized by a triangular cross-section. They are typically made from steel and are used in various construction and engineering applications. The primary function of a keilprofile is to provide support and create inclined surfaces.

These profiles are often employed in the construction of bridges, buildings, and industrial structures where angled supports are required. They can be used to transition between different structural elements or to provide a gradual slope for drainage or access. The tapered shape allows for efficient load distribution and can contribute to the overall stability of a structure.

Keilprofiles are manufactured through processes like hot rolling or extrusion, ensuring consistent dimensions and material properties. They are available in a range of sizes and steel grades to suit different load-bearing requirements and environmental conditions. Their design allows for easy connection to other structural members through welding or bolting.

In addition to their structural roles, keilprofiles can also be used in specialized applications such as in the manufacturing of machinery, tools, and automotive components where a wedge-shaped element is needed for specific functional purposes. The simplicity of their design and their inherent strength make them a versatile and cost-effective solution in many engineering challenges.
