SHS 95x95x4.8 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 95x95 cal 6 (México) · Caño estructural 95x95 (Argentina)

The SHS 95x95x4.8 steel profile weighs 13.1 kg/m (8.82 lb/ft), has a depth of 95 mm (3.74 in), flange width 95 mm (3.74 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,672.507 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 222.633 cm⁴, Iy = 222.633 cm⁴.
