Circular Hollow Section

Grade: s275 JR

Circular hollow sections (CHS) are one of the most versatile and widely used steel tube profiles in construction, engineering, and various other industries. A circular hollow section provides exceptional strength and stability. Whether used for structural purposes or design elements, circular hollow sections offer high performance, reliability, and durability. The smooth and uniform round shape of the circular hollow section ensures it can efficiently handle multi-directional loads, making it an ideal choice for numerous structural and architectural applications. At Steel Shop Online, we stock a range of circular hollow sections in varying sizes, thicknesses, and diameters, tailored to meet the needs of different projects. Our circular hollow sections are produced from mild steel, ensuring high quality and strength. We offer a cut-to-size length for your circular hollow sections for any length up to 3000mm. For your convenience, you can select the specific full section diameter, and thickness, and input the length you need for your project and easily add the items to your basket for a convenient ordering experience.

Dimensions and Sizes of Circular Hollow Sections

One of the most critical factors to consider when choosing a circular hollow section is the size. Steel Shop Online provides chs in a variety of sizes, diameters, and thicknesses, offering a range of options to suit every need. The diameter and radius of a circular hollow section play a vital role in determining its strength and load-bearing capacity, while the thickness affects its resistance to buckling and bending.

At Steel Shop Online, you can find chs with diameters ranging from 21.3mm to 88.9mm, making them perfect for different applications. You’ll also find that our stock includes various lengths to choose from, with standard lengths being widely available, while custom lengths can be cut to your exact specifications. The range of diameter thickness combinations ensures that our circular hollow sections can accommodate a variety of project requirements, from lightweight pipe constructions to heavy-duty frameworks.

 

Common Applications for Circular Hollow Sections

Circular hollow sections are widely used across multiple industries due to their versatility and strength. Here are some of the most common applications for circular hollow sections:

Structural Engineering and Construction

In building and construction, circular hollow sections are commonly used in frameworks, columns, and beams. Their uniform shape distributes loads evenly, making them suitable for supporting both vertical and horizontal forces. Due to their bend resistance and stability, they are often used in high-rise buildings, bridges, and other structures that demand a high degree of structural integrity.

Architectural and Design Applications

Architects favour circular hollow sections for their clean, modern aesthetic. They are often used in visible frameworks, railings, and balustrades, contributing to a sleek, minimalist design. CHS profiles can be integrated into fences, gates, and even furniture designs, providing both functional strength and visual appeal.

Industrial Uses

CHS profiles are frequently used in industrial settings where strength and durability are required. For example, circular hollow sections of chs can be found in machinery, support frames, and even in piping systems that handle low-pressure fluids.
