SHS 220x220x16 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 220x220 (México) · Caño estructural 220x220 (Argentina)

The SHS 220x220x16 steel profile weighs 93.9 kg/m (63.07 lb/ft), has a depth of 220 mm (8.66 in), flange width 220 mm (8.66 in). Cross-sectional area: 11,957.239 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 7,812.227 cm⁴, Iy = 7,812.227 cm⁴.
