RHS (Rectangular Hollow Section) and SHS (Square Hollow Section) Pipes

RHS (Rectangular Hollow Section) and SHS (Square Hollow Section) pipes are structural steel tubes with hollow rectangular or square cross-sections, made from mild steel or high-strength variants for superior load-bearing in construction and fabrication.

RHS and SHS offer efficient, aesthetic alternatives to angle or I-beams, optimizing space and material use in modern structures.

Properties

• High strength-to-weight ratio: Lighter than solid sections yet torsion-resistant.
• Versatile: Weldable, boltable; coated for corrosion protection.
• Manufacturing: Cold-formed or hot-rolled from steel strips, to standards like IS 4923.

Applications

• Construction: Frames, trusses, roofing, bridges, railings.
• Industrial: Machinery supports, conveyor frames, storage racks.
• Others: Fencing, Structural support, automotive chassis.
