SHS 100x100x5 Tata Steel Celsius · Weight & Dimensions

Tata Steel Celsius · 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 100x100 cal 6 (México) · Caño estructural 100x100 (Argentina)

The SHS 100x100x5 steel profile weighs 14.7 kg/m (9.88 lb/ft), has a depth of 100 mm (3.94 in), flange width 100 mm (3.94 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,857.08 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 276.358 cm⁴, Iy = 276.358 cm⁴.

Cross-section (not to scale)

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