SHS 130x130x12.7 Açotubo · Weight & Dimensions

Açotubo, 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 130x130 (México) · Caño estructural 130x130 (Argentina)

The SHS 130x130x12.7 steel profile weighs 43.5 kg/m (29.25 lb/ft), has a depth of 130 mm (5.12 in), flange width 130 mm (5.12 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,543.482 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,220.284 cm⁴, Iy = 1,220.284 cm⁴.
