Application scope and advantages of square and rectangular tubes

What is a square and rectangular tube?


Square tube or rectangular tube is a common steel tube material with a square or rectangular shape and is made by cold bending or hot rolling. Its main raw materials are low carbon steel, Q235, Q345 and other steel materials, which have the characteristics of high bending strength, good toughness and strong corrosion resistance.The most common material for square tubes and rectangular tubes is ASTM A500.


Application range of square and rectangular tubes:


1. Construction field: Square and rectangular tubes are commonly used in building frames, doors and windows, steel structure projects, outdoor billboards, highway guardrails, etc.

2. Machinery manufacturing: Square and rectangular tubes are also widely used in machinery manufacturing fields, such as vehicle manufacturing, shipbuilding, electric power industry, petrochemical industry, etc., and can be used as parts, machine bases, support frames, etc.

3. Transportation: Square and rectangular tubes are often used in railway vehicle manufacturing, highway guardrails, road beautification guardrails, etc., with good durability and strength.

4. Furniture manufacturing: Square and rectangular tubes are often used as furniture frames and components in furniture manufacturing because they are strong and not easily deformed, and they also have good anti-corrosion properties.

5. Others: For different application fields, square and rectangular tubes can also be made into pipes, plumbing equipment, ventilation equipment, etc.


Advantages of square and rectangular tubes:


1. High strength: Square and rectangular pipes have high bending and compressive strength and can remain stable under large pressure and bending conditions, ensuring the safety and stability of the project.

2. Good plasticity and processability: Square and rectangular tubes are suitable for various sheet metal processing, which improves production efficiency. At the same time, they can be cut, bent and welded according to requirements.

3. Good corrosion resistance: The surface of the square and rectangular tube has been specially treated to increase the anti-rust and anti-corrosion properties, and also facilitates later maintenance.

4. Beautiful appearance: Square and rectangular tubes have regular and beautiful shapes and are highly decorative. They can be produced in various colors and surface treatments to meet the needs of different projects.


Summarize:


This article introduces the definition, application scope and advantages of square and rectangular tubes. Through the analysis of its characteristics, we can see its wide range of applications and advantages in different fields. As an important pipe material, square and rectangular pipes will continue to play an important role in various fields such as construction, machinery manufacturing, and transportation.
