About Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS)
Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) are rectangular tubes used where the loading is different in each axis, such as beams, mullions, and frames. The deeper dimension resists bending while the wider dimension provides lateral stability. Available from 50x25 to 500x300.
