50 x 25 x 2.0 Rectangular Hollow Section S235
The 50 x 25 x 2.0 Rectangular Hollow Section S235 is a rectangular hollow section measuring 50 × 25 mm — a closed box that is deliberately deeper than it is wide, so it spans like a beam but still resists twist like a tube. Orientation matters: laid flat, the same section is far weaker in bending, so the drawing should make clear which dimension is vertical.

At 2.15 kg per metre, one tonne buys roughly 465.1 linear metres. At this weight the section is a genuine two-person lift over short distances, so it suits refurbishment work, tight access and sites without craneage. Standard supply is S235 to BS EN 10210 / BS EN 10219, with fabrication carried out here before dispatch. Every order carries EN 10204 3.1 mill certification and is CE marked under BS EN 1090 EXC 3.
Typically specified for portal and goalpost frames, agricultural building framing, canopy and carport beams, exposed architectural framing and balustrade top rails.
Confirm the vertical dimension when ordering — we can mark the top face so the frame cannot be assembled the wrong way round.
