EPD: Structural steel hollow sections (HSS), D: 25-508 mm, section wall thickness: 2-16 mm, 7850 kg/m3, Hybox (Tata Steel)

sections (sometimes referred to as ‘tubes’). They are manufactured from fully killed steel, critical to formability and weldability, in a range of circular, square and rectangular shaped tubes. The dimensions and corner radii are controlled to tight tolerances and the sections are available in a range of sizes from 25 to 508mm, with wall thicknesses from 2 to 16mm. The full range of Hybox® products are included in this EPD. The Hybox® brand offers strong, light, cost-effective and aesthetically appealing structural steel hollow sections that provide reliable formability and toughness. They can be used in a wide range of structural and engineering applications, including those where specific properties and compliance with design codes are required. They are also suitable for galvanising.
