MT6x5.9 – MT Shapes

MT6x5.9 is a tee 6 in (152 mm) deep with a 3.07 in (78 mm) flange, weighing 5.9 lb/ft (8.8 kg/m).

MT shapes are structural tees split from M shapes, carrying the lighter weights and smaller sizes available in the M series. They serve the same general purpose as WT shapes — truss chords, light built-up sections, and miscellaneous fabrications — wherever a lighter, smaller tee section is more appropriate than one cut from a full-size W shape.
