Stainless Steel Hollow Sections are a popular variant of structural steel pipes and this article will detail their meaning, characteristics, advantages and uses.
Stainless steel hollow sections are square or rectangular stainless steel tubes with a hollow center. Because it is hollow, it tends to be quite light and stiff, which makes it suitable for many different applications.


-
More suitable for later applications than other structural parts
-
Affordable and easy to connect
-
Both visually appealing and great to use
-
Excellent weight-to-strength ratio
-
Easy to operate and easy to bend


-
Tubular form is stronger per unit weight than other forms of steel, concrete or wood
-
Higher strength-to-weight ratio enables the construction of lighter, more aesthetically pleasing structures with wider spans and less material
-
Less materials are used, less waste is produced, and even if there is waste it can be fully recycled
-
Less construction time and less impact on surrounding communities
-
Lightweight properties allow it to be added to existing structures without burdening the foundation
SS hollow sections is used in structural, industrial, mechanical, and construction applications where a balance of strength, use, and aesthetic appeal is needed. They are used in the production of posts, gates, and frames.
