High-strength MS square hollow section in YST 355 from Tata Structura, designed as a cold-formed structural tube for modern steel construction. With a nominal size of 500×500 mm and 18 mm wall thickness in approximately 6 m length, it offers an efficient balance of load-carrying capacity, torsional rigidity and aesthetic appearance for architectural and industrial projects.

The section is manufactured to IS 4923 specifications with stringent control on dimensions, straightness and weld integrity, making it suitable for long-term, low-maintenance structures.

Key Features
