SHS 195x195x6 SAISC · Weight & Dimensions

SAISC, 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 195x195 cal 4 (México) · Caño estructural 195x195 (Argentina)

The SHS 195x195x6 steel profile weighs 34.9 kg/m (23.44 lb/ft), has a depth of 195 mm (7.68 in), flange width 195 mm (7.68 in). Cross-sectional area: 4,443.292 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 2,617.155 cm⁴, Iy = 2,617.155 cm⁴.
