Product type
H beams, also known as H sections or universal beams, are structural steel elements characterized by their H-shaped cross-section. They are made from high-strength steel and are designed to support heavy loads while providing stability and rigidity. The wide flanges and narrow web of the H beam allow for efficient load distribution, making them ideal for various construction and engineering applications.
| Material | Structural steel grades such as S235, S275, S355 |
| Standard sizes | Widths from 100 mm to 1000 mm, heights from 100 mm to 900 mm |
| Length | Typically available in lengths from 6 meters to 12 meters |
| Weight per meter | Ranges from 10 kg/m to over 50 kg/m depending on size |
| Flange thickness | Typically ranges from 5 mm to 20 mm |
| Web thickness | Typically ranges from 5 mm to 12 mm |
When selecting H beams, consider the specific load requirements and the structural design of your project. Specify the steel grade, which affects strength and durability, as well as the dimensions needed for your application. It's also important to consider any necessary certifications or standards required for your project, as well as the quantity needed for your order.
