• Fittings: Fittings refer to connectors and brackets that are used to join channels together.
• Hardware: This refers to nuts, bolts, washers and any other fasteners that are used to secure fittings to channels.
There are also strut channel accessories which are complementary components used to enhance functionality. Common strut channel accessories include fluorescent lighting support, clamps and cantilever arms.

Some of the most common places you’ll find them include electrical and mechanical systems, structural support, in racking and shelving, solar panels and even seismic (earthquake support) bracing. As such, you will find strut channel systems in a range of industries.
Can strut channel systems be used outdoors?
