SHS 60x60x5 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 60x60 cal 6 (México) · Caño estructural 60x60 (Argentina)

The SHS 60x60x5 steel profile weighs 8.4 kg/m (5.66 lb/ft), has a depth of 60 mm (2.36 in), flange width 60 mm (2.36 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,057.08 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 52.354 cm⁴, Iy = 52.354 cm⁴.

Cross-section (not to scale)

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