Channel profile is one type of structure that belongs to the beam category and widely used in the world of construction and automotive. Channel profiles with different geometries and materials have different strengths. The purpose of this study was to determine the maximum load (Fmax) and bending strength (σb) received by the channel profile after going through the deep drawing manufacturing with different depths. The tools were a punch with a size of 38 x 40 mm and dies where both of these tools had 8 mm of radius. The process was carried out using a Universal Testing Machine (UTM) with 20 tons of capacities. A punch would give a quasi-static movement with 30 mm/min of speed until 10, 20, 30, 40 mm in depth. After that, each specimen was tested bending with 75 mm in distance between support and actuator. The result showed that a depth of 20 mm had greater strength with a maximum load of 1462.61 N and 172.15 MPa of bending strength compared to channel profile specimens with different depths.
