Square tube dia 12x12x1.5 to 120x120x12 steel tube hollow section steel square tube

The main advantage of a square or rectangular tube is its pronounced spatial rigidity in contrast to products with a circular cross-section. It is a closed profile with four stiffeners. If the profile tube is used as a load-bearing bar and the load is applied at an angle of 90° to the plane, the bending stiffness of the profile is approx. 35% higher than that of its round counterpart.

Rectangular and square tubes are much easier to work with due to their smooth surface. They are easier to prime and paint, and protective coatings adhere better to the surfaces.

Profiled steel tubing has a relatively wide range of applications. A well-processed profile tube is used in pipeline construction, where no special requirements are made, but also as a structural element, as a support and for cable routing. The wide range of applications of moulded tubular products is explained by the fact that these products have a higher mechanical strength and a shape that is best suited to the design of various structures.

Properties of square tubes:

• good machinability
• high mechanical and thermal strength
• high tensile strength

Main areas of application for square tubes:

• Mechanical engineering
• construction industry
• Aircraft and shipbuilding
• Automotive industry
