CHS 60.3x5 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 60.3x5 steel profile weighs 6.8 kg/m (4.58 lb/ft). Cross-sectional area: 868.65 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 33.477 cm⁴, Iy = 33.477 cm⁴.

Cross-section (not to scale)

Gauge equivalent: 5 mm ≈ 6 gauge (Manufacturers Standard Gage)
