Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS)
Rectangular hollow structural sections
Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) are closed rectangular cross-section structural steel tubes manufactured to EN 10210 (hot-finished) or EN 10219 (cold-formed). The asymmetric section delivers strong bending in the major axis, making RHS ideal for beams, lintels, mezzanines and framing.
