Tubing & Profiles

Rectangular Tubes

Versatile hollow sections ideal for structural and architectural applications.

Product Overview

Our rectangular tubes are hollow structural sections (HSS) manufactured through electric resistance welding (ERW) processes. The rectangular profile offers excellent load-bearing properties with a modern aesthetic, making them ideal for both structural and architectural applications.

Rectangular tubes provide superior strength in one direction compared to square tubes and are widely used in building construction, trailers, machinery frames, furniture, and architectural metalwork across Zambia.

Key Features

Directional Strength

Optimized strength profile with greater load capacity along the longer dimension.

Clean Aesthetic

Sleek, modern appearance ideal for exposed architectural applications.

Easy Fabrication

Simple to cut, weld, drill, and finish for custom applications.

Profile Comparison Guide

Square Tubes

Equal strength in all directions. Ideal for columns and compression members where load direction varies.

Rectangular Tubes

Greater strength along the longer dimension. Ideal for beams and flexural members where load is primarily in one direction.

Round Tubes

Uniform strength in all directions. Ideal for torsion applications and fluid transport.
