Catalysis of the transmembrane transfer of an ion by a channel that opens in response to a mechanical stress. Catalysis of the transmembrane transfer of a solute by a channel that opens in response to a specific stimulus. Catalysis of the transmembrane transfer of a solute by a channel that opens in response to a mechanical stress. Catalysis of energy-independent facilitated diffusion, mediated by passage of a solute through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel. Stereospecificity is not exhibited but this transport may be specific for a particular molecular species or class of molecules.
