DESCRIPTION
1-1/2″ x 1-1/2″ x 16ga(.065″)*
“HR steel square/rectangular tubing” refers to a type of square/rectangular-shaped steel tubing that has been manufactured through a “hot rolled” process, meaning the steel was heated to a high temperature during the shaping process, resulting in a more workable material with good strength-to-weight ratio and is often considered cost-effective for various applications.
Hot rolled square/rectangular tubes are primarily used in construction and structural applications due to their high strength and are commonly found in building frames, trailer components, industrial equipment, vehicle chassis, agricultural machinery, signposts, and various machine parts where precise tolerances are not critical; essentially anywhere a sturdy, robust structure is needed.
Key applications of hot rolled square/rectangular tubes:
  • Construction frameworks: Supporting columns, beams, and other structural elements in buildings.
  • Industrial machinery: Machine frames, components, and support structures
  • Trailer manufacturing: Trailer beds and chassis components
  • Automotive industry: Vehicle chassis components
  • Agricultural equipment: Frames and support structures for farm machinery
  • Signage: Signposts and support structures
  • Furniture Manufacturing: Metal frames for benches, tables, and other furniture
Why use hot rolled square/rectangular tubes:
  • Cost-effective: Hot rolling is a relatively inexpensive manufacturing process.
  • High strength: Provides good structural integrity for heavy-duty applications
  • Versatility: Can be easily welded and fabricated into various shapes

These are not stocked as pre-cut items. Because each order is cut specifically to customer specifications, all cut materials are considered custom products and are not eligible for cancellation, return, or exchange once production has begun. Our standard cutting tolerances are:

  • Length: +0.125″ / -0.062″
  • During the cutting process, the saw blade removes approximately 1/16″ (kerf) of material. This is a normal part of the manufacturing process and is already included within the stated cutting tolerances.
