SHS 300x300x8 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 300x300 (México) · Caño estructural 300x300 (Argentina)

The SHS 300x300x8 steel profile weighs 72.8 kg/m (48.92 lb/ft), has a depth of 300 mm (11.81 in), flange width 300 mm (11.81 in). Cross-sectional area: 9,234.124 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 13,047.426 cm⁴, Iy = 13,047.426 cm⁴.
