What is carbon steel square tube
Carbon Steel Square Tube (Carbon Steel Square Hollow Section / SHS / Steel Box Section / Mild Steel Square Pipe) is a high-strength structural steel profile widely used in construction, engineering, and industrial fabrication. Manufactured from premium-grade carbon steel such as Q235, Q345, ASTM A500 Grade B/C, it offers excellent weldability, machinability, and load-bearing performance for both light and heavy-duty applications.
Available in a wide range of standard and customized sizes from 20×20mm to 200×200mm, with wall thickness options from 1.2mm to 12mm, carbon steel square tubes are produced in compliance with international standards such as ASTM A500, EN 10219, and GB/T 6728. Surface finishes include black steel, hot-dip galvanized, pre-galvanized, and anti-corrosion coated, ensuring long service life even in harsh environments.
As a versatile structural material, Carbon Steel Square Tube is also known as SHS steel tube, square hollow section steel, structural steel square tubing, carbon steel box section, and mild steel hollow square pipe. It is widely applied in steel building frames, warehouse structures, bridges, machinery fabrication, conveyor systems, automotive components, solar mounting systems, and architectural frameworks.
With its combination of high strength, cost efficiency, dimensional accuracy, and global standard compliance, carbon steel square tubing is one of the most demanded steel profiles in global engineering and construction markets.
