Stainless Steel Box Section - Cut to Size

Stainless Steel Box Section also referred to as a "Square Tube" is supplied in Grade 304, referred to as a ‘catering’ grade has good corrosion resistance and is non-magnetic. This material also has a brushed effect on the outside face.

The square shape can be easily fabricated into modular structures.

The stainless steel box section is available to order in the following thicknesses:

• 1.50mm
• 2.00mm
• 3.00mm

Typical Uses for Stainless Steel Box Sections:

• Architectural and Construction: Stainless steel box sections are often used in architectural and construction applications for structural components, facades, handrails, and decorative elements. Their corrosion resistance and modern appearance make them a popular choice.
• Structural Support: Stainless steel box sections provide structural support in buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure projects, thanks to their strength and resistance to corrosion.
• Marine and Coastal Applications: Stainless steel's resistance to saltwater corrosion makes it ideal for marine and coastal applications, including boat and shipbuilding, dock construction, and offshore oil platforms.
• Transportation: Stainless steel box sections are used in the automotive and aerospace industries for various components, such as aircraft frames, car chassis, and exhaust systems.
• Food Processing and Pharmaceuticals: Stainless steel's hygienic properties and resistance to corrosion make it a common choice for equipment and machinery in the food processing and pharmaceutical industries, including conveyor systems and storage.
