Circular HollowGrade: S355

168.3 x 8.0 Circular Hollow Section S355

168.3 x 8.0 Circular Hollow Section S355 is a CHS, a seamless-looking tubular member equally stiff in every direction. Closed profiles are enormously stiffer in torsion than any open section, so a CHS is the sensible answer for cantilevered signage, gantry arms and anything that twists.

At 31.6 kg per metre, one tonne buys roughly 31.6 linear metres. It is heavy enough to need mechanical handling on site, but light enough that a standard HIAB offload covers delivery in one visit. Supplied in grade S355 to BS EN 10210 / BS EN 10219, cut to your lengths and delivered worldwide. Heat numbers are traceable back to the rolling mill, with EN 10204 3.1 certificates issued against each delivery.

Typically specified for canopy supports, bracing in exposed frames, roller and shaft sleeves, exposed architectural columns and handrails and balustrade posts.

Galvanising a closed section needs vent and drain holes; we position them where they will not be seen.
