SHS 140x140x5 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 140x140 cal 6 (México) · Caño estructural 140x140 (Argentina)

The SHS 140x140x5 steel profile weighs 21.0 kg/m (14.11 lb/ft), has a depth of 140 mm (5.51 in), flange width 140 mm (5.51 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,657.08 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 800.928 cm⁴, Iy = 800.928 cm⁴.

Cross-section (not to scale)

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