Characteristics of the Square Tube

  Square tube is generally used for structural and maintenance purposes, such as the construction of buildings, railings and signposts. It is measured by its outer dimensions and its thickness, taking the outer walls (which are the same size) and then the wall thickness.

  The square tube allows easier welding of several tubes, joining their ends. It is also easier to store stacked.

  The most used materials to manufacture this type of tube are aluminum and steel, although iron is also widely used for its tenacity in structures where the risk of rust is not relevant. They are available in many storage lengths, which normally range from 60 cm to 7 meters, although they can be made to measure.

  Being an alloy (iron and coal) has many interesting properties. It is a material heavier than aluminum (three times more), so it is especially valued for use in heavy structures and / or that require resistance to corrosion and extreme temperatures, such as the construction of both houses and homes. large structures, such as bridges, roads or oil or gas plants.

  It is easy to weld, and it has a facility of cut, molded and mechanized moderate, since it is a very dense material.

  Square Tube ADVANTAGES
