Universal ColumnGrade: S355

254 x 254 x 73 kg Universal Column S355

254 x 254 x 73 kg Universal Column S355 is a hot-rolled universal column measuring 254 × 254 mm, proportioned for axial load rather than span. Because both flanges and web are relatively thick, this profile also takes concentrated bearing load well, which is useful directly under beam connections and baseplates.

At 73 kg per metre, one tonne buys roughly 13.7 linear metres. At this weight, lifting is a planned operation — allow for crane capacity, slinging points and safe laydown before the delivery arrives. Supplied in grade S355 to BS EN 10025-2, 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 mezzanine and platform legs, shallow flat-laid beams where headroom is tight, multi-storey load paths, building stanchions and storey-height posts.

Columns are usually cut to a tighter length tolerance than beams because the cut face bears directly — tell us if you need a machined or sawn square end.
