Applications & Usage
This medium-duty Steel rectangular hollow section is commonly specified for furniture manufacturing, enclosures, brackets, and general fabrication. The 3mm wall thickness provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio while maintaining workability. The galvanized coating provides exceptional corrosion protection for outdoor and harsh environments. Available in standard lengths of 6m, this profile can be easily cut, drilled, and welded to suit your specific requirements.

Grade strength and capacity
Minimum strength of each grade this size is rolled in, with the indicative capacity of the section.
| Grade | Min. yield | Tensile | Bending Wel·fy | Axial A·fy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S235JRH | 235 MPa | 360–510 MPa | 1.67 kNm | 120 kN |
| S275J0H | 275 MPa | 410–560 MPa | 1.96 kNm | 140 kN |
| S355J2H | 355 MPa | 470–630 MPa | 2.53 kNm | 181 kN |
Ordered in S355J2H, the S235JRH bending capacity of this size is reached with a 2 mm wall in the same outer size (2.78 kg/m, 31% lighter).
Indicative values from nominal dimensions: Wel × fy and A × fy, without buckling, cross-section class or partial safety factors. Not a design check.
