SHS 22x22x2 Hiasa · Weight & Dimensions

Hiasa, 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 22x22 cal 15 (México) · Caño estructural 22x22 (Argentina)

The SHS 22x22x2 steel profile weighs 1.2 kg/m (0.79 lb/ft), has a depth of 22 mm (0.87 in), flange width 22 mm (0.87 in). Cross-sectional area: 149.699 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 0.961 cm⁴, Iy = 0.961 cm⁴.

Cross-section (not to scale)

Gauge equivalent: 2 mm ≈ 14 gauge (Manufacturers Standard Gage)
