Engineered for heavy cable runs, corrosive process plant raceways, and complex commercial installations requiring modular strut channel and cable tray compatibility.
Modern MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing), industrial raceway routing, and structural framing depend directly on the structural integrity of cold-formed channel hardware and accessories.
The fundamental load-transfer interface of the entire metal framing system relies on cold-forged channel nuts. Engineered with case-hardened, alternating tooth serrations that bite mechanically into the inward-curling inturned lips of 41×41mm, 41×21mm, and 41×82mm strut profiles. Available with long springs, regular springs, short springs, or stud-nut configurations to prevent slippage under dynamic seismic oscillations.
Precision stamped from low carbon hot-rolled pickled steel coils conforming to ASTM A1011 SS Grade 33 or equivalent. Our portfolio spans 2-hole, 3-hole, 4-hole, and 5-hole gusseted 90° angle brackets, tee-plates, cross splices, and corner wing brackets. CNC piercing guarantees exact 20.6mm (13/16") hole spacings and 9/16" hole diameters for seamless metric (M10, M12) and imperial (3/8", 1/2") hardware alignment.
Critical infrastructure demands non-welded connection clamps for secure I-beam, wide-flange, and joist mounting. Our heavy-duty window beam clamps, C-clamps with cone-point set screws, and multi-angle seismic sway-brace hinges isolate building acceleration frequencies, fulfilling ASCE 7-22 and IBC Chapter 16 compliance standards across major seismic design categories.
Channel accessories are deployed across aggressive ambient atmospheres ranging from subsea desalination facilities to sterile pharmaceutical cleanrooms. Matching metallurgical performance to environment prevents galvanic degradation and premature mechanical failure.

Unistrut channel accessories are configured to withstand unique structural loadings, thermal expansions, dynamic seismic shocks, and environmental aggressors across localized macro-projects worldwide.
Modern AI computing clusters demand immense overhead cable basket trays, fiber raceways, and busway busducts. Our high-tensile 41×41 back-to-back slotted struts coupled with threaded rod drop hangers and zinc-plated channel nuts provide vibration-damped, field-configurable grid ceilings rated for continuous dynamic cable re-pulls without requiring structural ceiling welding.
Challenging utility-scale photovoltaic solar projects necessitate long-span purlin supports and cross-braces capable of surviving continuous thermal contraction and UV degradation. Utilizing our high-grade Hot-Dip Galvanized strut accessories and aluminum channel clamps, project developers minimize on-site installation labor while eliminating galvanic reactions between panel frames and structural posts.
Piston pressures from passing high-speed passenger trains exert intense harmonic fatigue cycles on auxiliary MEP bracketry. Our hot-forged, serrated channel nuts and dacromet-coated heavy bracket plates ensure zero-slip locking security under repeated low-frequency air pressure shock waves throughout 50-year design life municipal transit tunnels.
Sub-zero cryogenic LNG transfer lines and offshore oil platforms generate hyper-saline, sulfur-rich environments that annihilate standard mill steel. We fabricate custom AISI 316/316L molybdenum-stabilized channel accessories, non-conductive FRP support assemblies, and heavy isolation pads that halt chloride pitting and electrochemical corrosion across harsh coastal zones.
Operating from the heart of the Shanghai Songjiang industrial manufacturing cluster, Shanghai Qiongkai Industry Co., Ltd. leverages direct raw material integration, advanced tooling automation, and oceanic logistics hubs to eliminate project schedule vulnerability.
We source prime structural steel hot and cold rolled coils directly from leading state steel conglomerates (Baosteel, Shougang). This mill-direct supply model mitigates volatile spot-market markups, guarantees precise chemical heat batch certificates, and ensures uniform cold-forming elongation without micro-fracturing along channel lip bends.
Our 3 regional factories house 12 continuous roll-forming lines and over 60 heavy-duty eccentric and hydraulic stamping presses up to 400 metric tons. Automated progressive tooling dies produce multi-hole bracket geometries, cantilever arms, and channel nuts at continuous speeds of 120 parts per minute with micron-level tolerances.
Eliminating third-party coating bottlenecks, our integrated finishing ecosystem encompasses automated pickling, multi-stage zinc plating, and specialized hot-dip zinc kettles operating at 450°C. Finished accessories obtain flawless zinc-iron alloy intermetallic layers with zero dross build-up in threaded holes and zero thread binding.
