CHS 42.4x4 Iberian tables · Weight & Dimensions
Iberian tables, 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 42.4x4 steel profile weighs 3.8 kg/m (2.55 lb/ft). Cross-sectional area: 482.549 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 8.991 cm⁴, Iy = 8.991 cm⁴.
Cross-section (not to scale)
Gauge equivalent: 4 mm ≈ 8 gauge (Manufacturers Standard Gage)
