DESCRIPTION

2-1/2″ × 2-1/2″ × 14 gauge (0.083″ wall) hot-rolled (HR) steel square tubing is manufactured from ASTM A500 steel, a cold-formed carbon steel specification designed for light- to medium-duty structural applications. This hollow structural section (HSS) features a uniform square profile with moderate wall thickness, providing a balance of strength and weight. Its hot-rolled construction ensures improved ductility and ease of fabrication. Typically produced in Grade B, it offers excellent weldability, dimensional accuracy, and reliability for general fabrication and construction projects.

Applications:
2-1/2″ square steel tubing (14ga HR) is commonly used in:
• Light- to medium-duty structural frames and supports
• Furniture and shelving construction
• Gates, railings, and fencing
• Equipment enclosures and protective guards
• DIY and hobby fabrication projects
• Industrial and commercial structures requiring moderate strength

Advantages:
• Balanced strength: Moderate wall thickness suitable for light- to medium-duty applications
• Hot-rolled construction: Provides improved ductility and easier fabrication
• Excellent weldability: Compatible with MIG, TIG, and stick welding
• Easy to fabricate: Can be cut, drilled, and assembled with standard tools
• Consistent quality: Manufactured for uniform dimensions and reliable performance

Summary:
The 2-1/2″ × 2-1/2″ × 14 gauge HR ASTM A500 square steel tube is a versatile and reliable material for light- to medium-duty structural and fabrication projects. Its combination of strength, weldability, and ease of fabrication makes it ideal for frames, supports, and general-purpose metalwork.

* Prices subject to change without notice due to the Metals Market fluctuations. | All ‘value length’ and ‘value pack’ item measurements are subject to a “mill tolerance”. | A product may be produced several thousandths of an inch, either over or under the stated thickness, and still be within “mill tolerance”. Since we cut the material specifically for your order, they follow these tolerances: Length: +0.125″ / -0.062” – Please note that during cutting, the blade removes about 1/16″ of material (kerf). This is a normal part of the process and is already considered within the stated tolerances.
