Notes

Designation 087F125-MM: 087 = 0.875 in (7/8) depth, F = furring (hat) channel, 125 = 1-1/4 in face, MM = minimum thickness in mils; 150F125 is the 1-1/2 in deep version. Flanges are 1/2 in (CEMCO). Sold to ASTM C645 / AISI S220 (nonstructural).
Drawn with vertical webs and out-to-out legs (overall width 2-1/4 in less 2t). Real rolls flare the webs slightly, so the drawn areas run about 1.5 to 2 % under SFIA's published gross areas (087F125-43: 0.165 drawn, 0.168 published; 150F125-43: 0.221 vs 0.225). The flare angle is not published.
Inside radius per the SFIA thickness table. Cross-section shown as a 200 mm length; no knurled face, no hemmed legs (ClarkDietrich sells a 25 ga hemmed-leg version).
A metric omega-profile table (EN 14195) was not found in a free source and is not included.
