Rolled to BS EN 10025-2 in grade S355J0 and cut to length on a precision cold saw, this column is specified where the design calls for serious load capacity within the 200mm-wide UC envelope, before stepping the section up to the larger 254 x 254 UC family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlange thickness on the UC86 reaches 20.5 mm and the section depth grows to 222.2 mm — giving the column not only higher compressive capacity than the UC71 but also a substantial improvement in connection capacity for moment-resisting or large bolt-group joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSection Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesignation:\u003c\/strong\u003e 203 x 203 x 86 UC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLinear weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 86.1 kg\/m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteel grade:\u003c\/strong\u003e S355J0 (BS EN 10025-2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 222.2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 209.1 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeb thickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.7 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlange thickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRoot radius:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.2 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArea:\u003c\/strong\u003e 110 cm²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mill finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut to length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1m–12m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHeavy-Load Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe UC86 is found in heavier civil and commercial work — internal columns in two- and three-storey buildings, factory and warehouse frames, plant room support steelwork, columns under crane gantry beams, and structural cores in mid-rise extensions. On domestic projects, the UC86 is typically reserved for cases where the structural engineer has ruled out smaller sections — for instance a single column supporting an exceptionally long flush beam, or a column needed to resist combined axial and moment loads that overload a UC71.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCut to Order\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis section is cold-saw cut to your exact length anywhere from 1 metre to 12 metres. Working with a heavy section like the UC86 on site is hard, time-consuming and burns through abrasive blades — letting Rackerman cut to your fabrication drawing length is the more efficient and accurate option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDelivery and Offload\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivered to UK mainland addresses in 5–10 working days on a flat-bed vehicle. At 86.1 kg\/m the column is heavy — a 5m length weighs around 430 kg and a 7m length around 600 kg. Mechanical offloading equipment of suitable capacity must be on site at the delivery slot. The customer is responsible for offloading; site access for an articulated or rigid flat-bed must be confirmed before dispatch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rackerman","offers":[{"title":"1.0m","offer_id":58219121672579,"sku":null,"price":236.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.0m","offer_id":58219121705347,"sku":null,"price":449.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"3.0m","offer_id":58219121738115,"sku":null,"price":662.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.0m","offer_id":58219121770883,"sku":null,"price":875.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.0m","offer_id":58219121803651,"sku":null,"price":1088.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.0m","offer_id":58219121836419,"sku":null,"price":1301.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.0m","offer_id":58219121869187,"sku":null,"price":1514.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.0m","offer_id":58219121901955,"sku":null,"price":1726.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.0m","offer_id":58219121934723,"sku":null,"price":1939.76,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.0m","offer_id":58219121967491,"sku":null,"price":2152.61,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"11.0m","offer_id":58219122000259,"sku":null,"price":2365.46,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"12.0m","offer_id":58219122033027,"sku":null,"price":2578.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/1710\/6429\/files\/ChatGPTImageMay24_2026_05_43_45AM_0384f81e-21d4-4bcd-85ef-ef80600216e9.png?v=1779596858","url":"https:\/\/rackerman.co.uk\/products\/203-x-203-uc86-s355j0-steel-column-cut-to-size","provider":"Rackerman","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
