What is the difference between a Straight Flange C-Channel and a faux steel I-Beam?
A Straight Flange C-Channel has an open-sided profile with two parallel flanges extending from a single web, while an I-Beam has flanges extending from both sides of its center web. The C-Channel creates a cleaner, more directional architectural line that works especially well for ceiling edges, transitions, and feature-wall applications.
