Round tubes distribute load equally in all directions, making them ideal for handrails and load-bearing posts. Square Hollow Sections trade that for flat faces that are far easier to weld and bolt. Rectangular Hollow Sections go a step further, with a tall axis that resists sagging under one-directional load. Scaffolding & staging pipe puts the same round and SHS profiles to work as thick-walled, load-tested towers for working at height.
All four share the same ERW manufacturing line and are tested rigorously for chemical composition and mechanical properties before dispatch.

WHAT IS IT?
A Continuous Weld Seam, Rolled Into a Circle
Round structural tubes are hollow steel pipes made by rolling flat steel strips into a circle and welding the seam continuously using electricity (ERW). Because circles distribute weight equally in all directions, round tubes are incredibly strong against twisting and squeezing forces.
PRIMARY PURPOSE & BEST USE CASES
From Furniture Legs to Highway Signboards
Round tubes are used for carrying fluids, building smooth handrails, or constructing load-bearing vertical posts.
1" Series (32 OD)
Best for light furniture, gates, and internal decorative piping.
1.25" & 1.5" Series (42 OD & 48 OD)
Best for staircase handrails, outdoor safety barriers, agricultural gates, and modular scaffolding towers.
2" & 2.5" Series (60 OD & 76 OD)
Best for heavy structural pillars, highway signboards, and high-capacity staging posts.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Round Tubes, Common Questions
Which round tube size fits standard scaffolding couplers?
Our 1.25" (42 OD) and 1.5" (48 OD) series are the sizes most commonly used for staircase handrails, safety barriers and modular scaffolding towers.
What is the maximum wall thickness available?
Wall thickness runs from 1.2mm up to 3.2mm depending on diameter, heavier gauges are used in the 2" and 2.5" series for structural pillars.
Do fittings and couplers fit smoothly over the weld seam?
Yes, our ERW process leaves a smooth, flattened internal weld seam so couplers and fittings slide over the tube without snagging or jamming.

WHAT IS IT?
Hollow Steel Building Blocks
Square Hollow Sections, often called "box pipes", are hollow steel tubes with four equal flat sides and square corners. They look like long, hollow wooden building blocks made of steel.
PRIMARY PURPOSE & BEST USE CASES
Flat Faces, Easier Fabrication
Because all four sides are flat, SHS box pipes are much easier to weld, drill, and attach to flat walls than round pipes.
1" & 1.25" Boxes (25×25 MM & 32×32 MM)
Best for window security grills, school desks, metal furniture, and light gates.
1.5" Boxes (38×38 MM & 40×25 MM)
Best for residential entry gates, solar panel racking frames, and store display racks.
2" & 2.5" Boxes (48×48 MM, 50×50 MM & 60×60 MM)
Best for warehouse shed columns, roof trusses, and heavy machine frames.

Why Choose Our SHS Box Pipes?
Our square box pipes are manufactured with uniform radiused corners. This prevents stress concentrations at the edges, giving your structures a clean, modern aesthetic.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
SHS Box Pipes, Common Questions
What SHS size is best for a warehouse shed column?
2" and 2.5" boxes (48×48mm, 50×50mm and 60×60mm) are best for warehouse shed columns, roof trusses and heavy machine frames.
Why choose SHS over round tube for gates and grills?
Flat faces make SHS box pipe much easier to weld, drill and attach to flat walls than round pipe, which is why it's the default choice for grills, gates and racking.
What is the lightest SHS profile you supply?
Our lightest profile is 25×25mm, used for window security grills, school desks and light metal furniture.

WHAT IS IT?
A Brick-Shaped Hollow Section
Rectangular Hollow Sections are hollow steel box pipes where two sides are wider than the other two (like a brick shape).
PRIMARY PURPOSE & BEST USE CASES
Built for One-Directional Load
RHS pipes are designed for places where weight pushes down heavily from one direction. The tall vertical sides resist sagging much better than a square pipe of the same steel weight.
Small RHS (25×50 MM)
Best for door frames, window shutters, and metal railing posts.
Medium RHS (38×58 MM & 75×25 MM)
Best for staircase side stringers, vehicle trailer beds, and warehouse rack beams.
Large RHS (80×40 MM)
Best for long-span roof purlins, mezzanine floor joists, and truck chassis rails.

Why Choose Our RHS Box Pipes?
By choosing RHS box pipes for long horizontal spans, you get maximum load resistance while using less steel weight, saving thousands on raw material costs.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
RHS Box Pipes, Common Questions
When should I choose RHS instead of SHS?
RHS is designed for one-directional load, its tall vertical sides resist sagging much better than a square pipe of the same steel weight, making it the better choice for long horizontal spans like purlins and joists.
What size RHS suits a truck chassis rail?
Our largest profile, 80×40mm, is best for long-span roof purlins, mezzanine floor joists and truck chassis rails.
What is the weight range across the RHS series?
From 8.5 KG per pipe for the smallest 25×50mm profile up to 30 KG per pipe for the largest 80×40mm profile.

WHAT IS IT?
Temporary Steel Cages for Working at Height
Scaffolding pipes are thick-walled, heavy-duty steel tubes designed to build temporary metal walkways, towers, and staging platforms around modern construction sites so workers can operate safely at height. These pipes assemble using metal couplers to create rigid temporary cages that support workers, concrete mixers, and heavy building blocks during construction.

From light exterior staging to heavy slab shuttering, each weight class is matched to the load it needs to carry.
Light/Medium Staging (1.5" / 48 OD – 17 KG)
Best for exterior plastering, painting, and window installation staging.
Standard Construction (1.5" / 48 OD – 19 KG)
Best for multi-story bricklaying, concrete formwork shuttering, and masonry work.
Heavy Structural Propping (1.5" / 21–22 KG & 2" / 60 OD – 27 KG)
Best for supporting heavy concrete floor slab shuttering, bridge formwork, and heavy propping.
Square Frame Staging (2" / 50×50 MM SHS – 22–23 KG)
Best for rigid modular staging towers and base frames.

Worker safety comes first. Our scaffolding pipes are tested against high axial loads to guarantee they will not buckle under dynamic jobsite conditions.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Staging Pipes, Common Questions
Which pipe should I use for heavy slab shuttering?
Heavy structural propping calls for 1.5" pipe at 21–22 KG or 2" (60 OD) pipe at 27 KG, both rated for supporting heavy concrete floor slab shuttering and bridge formwork.
What weight range do your scaffolding pipes cover?
17 KG, 19 KG, 21–22 KG, 22–23 KG and 27 KG per pipe, across 1.5" round, 2" round and 2" SHS sections.
Are these pipes load-tested?
Yes, every scaffolding pipe is tested against high axial loads to guarantee it will not buckle under dynamic jobsite conditions.
