SHS 50x50x8 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 50x50 (México) · Caño estructural 50x50 (Argentina)

The SHS 50x50x8 steel profile weighs 10.0 kg/m (6.72 lb/ft), has a depth of 50 mm (1.97 in), flange width 50 mm (1.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,234.124 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 35.084 cm⁴, Iy = 35.084 cm⁴.
