SHS 160x160x10 Condesa · Weight & Dimensions

Condesa, 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 160x160 (México) · Caño estructural 160x160 (Argentina)

The SHS 160x160x10 steel profile weighs 44.4 kg/m (29.86 lb/ft), has a depth of 160 mm (6.30 in), flange width 160 mm (6.30 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,656.637 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 2,047.67 cm⁴, Iy = 2,047.67 cm⁴.
