ASTM A500 SHS Pipe is used in structural applications for its strength. Metallon Pipings FZ LLC is a leading exporter of the A500 Grade A Square Steel Pipe and other types in this particular grade. The specification covers cold formed, welded and seamless carbon steel tubing for structural applications with round and shapes of Grade A, B, C or D. The ASTM A500 Grade A Pipe is used for its known structural strength because of the geometric shape. The pipes come in 1/8 inches to 30 inches of nominal bore sizes.
The pipes are also specialized in the large diameter sizes. The ASTM A500 Gr. A square hollow sections are used in fitting frames together and other components together. There are seamless, ERW, welded, Fabricated and LSAW pipes. They come in round, square, rectangular and hydraulic forms. The ASME SA500 SHS Tubing has different pipe ends and lengths. The lengths vary from single random, double random to custom cut to lengths. The pipe ends range from plain end, beveled end and threaded ends. The A500 Gr A Carbon Steel Square Hollow Section and others can have wall thicknesses up to 0.62 inches. The different diameters and wall thicknesses account for the varying schedules ranging from sch20 to XXS and other schedules in the middle. Please feel free to contact us for more information on the SA500 Gr A Cold Formed SHS Tubing and a complete price list.
