CHS 102x4 GOST · Weight & Dimensions
GOST, cold-formed sections · Circular Hollow Section
Circular Hollow Sections (CHS) are round tubular profiles with the most efficient cross-section for compression. Used for columns, trusses, and architectural structures.
Also known as: Caño estructural redondo (Argentina)
The CHS 102x4 steel profile weighs 9.7 kg/m (6.50 lb/ft). Cross-sectional area: 1,231.504 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 148.088 cm⁴, Iy = 148.088 cm⁴.
Cross-section (not to scale)
Gauge equivalent: 4 mm ≈ 8 gauge (Manufacturers Standard Gage)
