SHS 150x150x16 Tuboeuropa · Weight & Dimensions

Tuboeuropa, cold-formed sections · 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 150x150 (México) · Caño estructural 150x150 (Argentina)

The SHS 150x150x16 steel profile weighs 58.7 kg/m (39.45 lb/ft), has a depth of 150 mm (5.91 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 7,477.239 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 2,009.424 cm⁴, Iy = 2,009.424 cm⁴.
