Engineered cold-formed purlins are designed for strength, precision, and compatibility across industrial roofing systems.
Overview
In steel construction, Purlins are structural members that run parallel to the building eave and support roof decking or sheeting. These essential components, most commonly used in Metal Building Systems, are supported by rafters or walls and are critical for maintaining structural integrity.
At NF Forgings, our purlins are cold-formed in Z, C, and U shapes to ensure flexural continuity, stability, and ease of construction. Designed with optimum profiles and cut to length with pre-punched holes, they offer faster installations and less on-site waste. Manufactured from high-strength steel and protected through galvanization or painting, our purlins offer long-lasting, low-maintenance performance.
