Strength
One of the main reasons people choose tubular steel products is because they are naturally strong. Most importantly, they have good resistance to longitudinal stress. Due to this fact, people use the tubes in applications such as scaffolding. Steel tubing is especially resistant to length ways compression. At the same time, it will provide superior resistance to bending forces when you compare to flat sheets.
Given their shapes, steel tubes are also hollow. The aperture runs their complete length and should be consistent in terms of the diameter. Due to these characteristics, people use them to move fluids like water. In addition, they are a brilliant choice for safeguarding cables.
Thanks to the extra strength, you are free to use the sections above or below ground. While the latter will mean exposure to the elements, galvanisation, plating, or even painting can offer protection for steels that struggle with corrosion. The finishing can also help to protect the steel from groundwater and other sources of wear.
Surprisingly light tubes
You will also be interested to hear that steel sections are light. Since they are hollow, they weigh much less than solid steel bars. This is great to hear if total weight is a concern of yours.
There is a great amount of choice available so you will definitely find sections that are appropriate. However, if you are struggling to find the correct rectangular steel box section or tube, make sure you speak to us.
Steel tubes are very consistent in the cross-sectional shape, diameter, and thickness over the length. This means that it is simple to figure out the total weight of any length and size of tubing. With some basic maths, you will have your answer in mere moments.
