My DIY permitted 16kw solar had a bad decision (mine should have read fine print earlier) on an inverter model max voltage which caused max to have Qty 36 Home Runs of the 10 gauge pv wire. So inside my steel building i need to lay the 36 wires in a through like below. The 6ft through is 24lbs by itself and there will be about 10 lbs of wire in it so hanging about 34 lbs.

I cant get it flat against the iron and i would like it level (beam is sloped) - sketch not to scale.

Is there a Home Deport/Lowes flat bar steel i can bend in vice, hammer on anvil to make 2(?) brackets?
At the right end it would mate with a through corner and i already have 3/4 plywood sheathing on the wall at that end.
It can also sit/touch that angle brace to help with weight support.
The system will still get an inspection.
Not an option to use hangers rods - the roof is 22 gauge and as of yesterday skinned with solar panels.
