PRODUCT 03.01 · SHS
Square tube 20×20 mm — light rails, mesh frames, door stops.
20×20 mm square hollow section, wall 1.2–3.0 mm, cut, punched and welded to drawing. Seldom structural, often the thing that stops a door rattling.

The 20×20 SHS is chosen for its corner stiffness and its flat faces. If the member is a column, check the base detail at the same time: a square post on a flat base plate with four bolts behaves very differently from the same post driven into soil.
