SHS 35x35x1.6 Acindar · Weight & Dimensions

Acindar, cold-formed sections · Square Hollow Section

Square Hollow Sections (SHS) are tubular profiles with equal sides, ideal for columns and compression members due to their uniform buckling resistance in all directions.

Also known as: PTR 35x35 cal 16 (México) · Caño estructural 35x35 (Argentina)

The SHS 35x35x1.6 steel profile weighs 1.6 kg/m (1.10 lb/ft), has a depth of 35 mm (1.38 in), flange width 35 mm (1.38 in). Cross-sectional area: 207.167 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 3.789 cm⁴, Iy = 3.789 cm⁴.
