Applications & Usage
This heavy-duty structural Steel round hss is commonly specified for framework, support structures, machinery bases, and industrial equipment. The 5.16mm wall thickness provides superior load-bearing capacity while maintaining workability. The natural mill finish provides a cost-effective solution for applications where aesthetics are secondary. 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 calculated on the AISC design wall (0.93 × nominal).
| Grade | Min. yield | Tensile | Bending Wel·fy | Axial A·fy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grade B | 42 ksi (290 MPa) | 58 ksi (400 MPa) | 15.7 kNm · 11.6 kip·ft | 534 kN · 120 kips |
| Grade C | 46 ksi (315 MPa) | 62 ksi (425 MPa) | 17.1 kNm · 12.6 kip·ft | 580 kN · 130 kips |
Indicative values from nominal dimensions: Wel × fy and A × fy, without buckling, cross-section class or partial safety factors. Not a design check.
