150mm x 100mm x 5mm Mild Steel Box Section High Strength Rectangular Hollow Section for Structural - Linear Metre

The 150mm x 100mm x 5mm Mild Steel Box Section is a versatile and durable rectangular hollow section designed for a wide range of industrial and structural applications. Its combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and excellent machinability makes it ideal for demanding environments.

• Material: Manufactured from high-quality mild steel (Grade S275JR), this box section offers reliable mechanical performance, suitable for both structural and general-purpose use.

• Shape: The box section design provides enhanced stability and strength, making it perfect for load-bearing structures, frameworks, and construction projects that require durability and resistance to bending or deformation.

• Height and Width: With dimensions of 150mm in height and 100mm in width, this rectangular section provides a substantial profile for applications that require rigidity and load distribution across larger surfaces.

• Thickness: The 5mm wall thickness offers added strength while maintaining a balance between weight and structural integrity, making it ideal for heavy-duty tasks.

• Weight: Weighing 18.42 kg per metre, this box section is heavy enough to provide solid support but remains manageable for various fabrication and installation processes.

• Formability: Rated as poor, this box section is not easily bent or shaped, meaning it is best suited for applications that require straight, rigid elements rather than complex curvatures.

• Weldability: The weldability is excellent, making it easy to join sections using standard welding techniques, ensuring strong and durable joints for structural applications.

• Machinability: With excellent machinability, this steel box section can be easily cut, drilled, and processed to meet specific project requirements, allowing for customization in fabrication and assembly.

• Corrosion Resistance: This mild steel section offers good corrosion resistance, particularly due to its red oxide finish, which provides an additional protective layer against rust and environmental degradation, extending the lifespan of the material.

• Finish: The red oxide finish adds a layer of protection, improving the box section’s resistance to rust and corrosion, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, particularly in environments where moisture or exposure to the elements is a concern.

In summary, the 150mm x 100mm x 5mm Mild Steel Box Section is a robust versatile, and high-performance material suitable for a variety of structural and industrial applications. Its combination of strength, weldability, and corrosion resistance ensures reliability and longevity in both construction and engineering projects.
