Excerpt:
A rectangular structural hollow section combined with a specified galvanized finish for fabricated outdoor frames and supports. Define the base grade first, then specify whether coating is applied after forming/fabrication. A pre-galvanized strip tube and a batch hot-dip galvanized assembly need different acceptance requirements.

S235JRH Hot-Dip Galvanized Rectangular Tube
A rectangular structural hollow section combined with a specified galvanized finish for fabricated outdoor frames and supports. Define the base grade first, then specify whether coating is applied after forming/fabrication. A pre-galvanized strip tube and a batch hot-dip galvanized assembly need different acceptance requirements.
| Ordering item | Specification |
|---|---|
| Material / standard | EN 10219 base section / EN ISO 1461 after-fabrication galvanizing by agreement |
| Product family | Galvanized Pipe |
| Supply basis | Enquiry-based grade, dimensions, processing and quantity; availability, MOQ and delivery confirmed in the quotation. |
| Inspection documents | Request heat/batch records and EN 10204 3.1 or other documents where required; actual document scope must be confirmed. |
01 / Selection Advantages
- Combines a defined structural base grade with a separately checkable coating specification.
- Cutting and hole preparation can be reviewed before galvanizing to protect the intended final shape.
- Drawing review identifies vent/drain openings and coating access before an enclosed section is processed.
02 / Specifications & Size Schedule
Use the following options to prepare a complete enquiry. The lists do not imply that every dimension combination is stocked or interchangeable with another standard. State the required tolerances and quantity for each line.
| Parameter | Enquiry requirement |
|---|---|
| Outside H × B / mm | 40 × 20 to 200 × 100 selected enquiries |
| Base wall / mm | 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8; state base wall before zinc coating |
| Length / m | 6 or project cut lengths |
| Coating route | Batch hot-dip after fabrication when specified; do not assume pre-coated strip is equivalent |
| Design review | Vent/drain holes, weld access, contact areas and dimensional allowance |
| Outside H × B / mm | Base wall enquiry choices / mm |
|---|---|
| 40 × 20 | 2, 3 |
| 50 × 30 | 2, 3 |
| 60 × 40 | 2, 3, 4 |
| 80 × 40 | 3, 4 |
| 100 × 50 | 3, 4, 5 |
| 120 × 80 | 3, 4, 5, 6 |
| 150 × 100 | 4, 5, 6 |
| 200 × 100 | 5, 6, 8 |
03 / Chemical Composition
Composition is expressed in weight percent. Maximum and minimum limits refer to the listed grade/product reference; final acceptance follows the agreed standard edition and heat analysis.
| Element | Grade reference / wt.% |
|---|---|
| C | ≤0.17 |
| Mn | ≤1.40 |
| P | ≤0.040 |
| S | ≤0.040 |
| N | ≤0.009; nitrogen-binding provisions apply |
| Si | No fixed limit in this grade table |
| Fe | Balance |
04 / Mechanical Properties & Technical Notes
| Condition / wall | Min yield / MPa | Tensile / MPa | Min elongation |
|---|---|---|---|
| S235JRH, t ≤16 mm | 235 | 360–510 | 24% longitudinal; specimen and thickness exceptions apply |
Mechanical properties refer to the base section. Agree the ISO 1461 coating thickness class appropriate to the article thickness rather than applying one zinc value to every size. Galvanizing does not turn a structural tube into a certified pressure pipe.
05 / Processing & Inspection
| Control point | What to agree or inspect |
|---|---|
| Weld and form | Review weld seam continuity, corner profile, twist and local surface damage. |
| Dimensions | Measure outside sides, wall away from corners, length, straightness and squareness. |
| Fabrication | Provide hole locations, mitres, weld preparation and coating drawings with revision numbers. |
| Acceptance | Confirm dimensional standard and inspection documents; pressure service is outside this structural product description. |
| Coating review | Check specified local/mean coating thickness, appearance, vent holes and repair limits. |
Include additional tests, third-party inspection, marking transfer and processing requirements before order confirmation. Qida can coordinate the agreed inspection scope and supporting records; an online product guide is not a delivered-batch test certificate.
06 / Export Packaging & Transport
| Packing item | Practical requirement |
|---|---|
| Bundle layout | Separate sizes and heats; use aligned ends and clear piece/bundle identification. |
| Surface care | Use clean dry separators and suitable straps; protect coated or appearance-critical faces. |
| Container planning | Agree maximum piece length, unit bundle mass and handling access before packing. |
| Securing | Dunnage and blocking prevent bundle sliding, wall crushing and end impact. |
Agree destination port, Incoterms rule and named place, package mass, unloading equipment and required shipping documents. Container capacity depends on payload limits, route and load distribution. For regulated solid-wood packaging, confirm the applicable ISPM 15 treatment and marking requirements.
07 / Qida Procurement Support
| Order stage | Our coordination | Buyer benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Specification review | Review material, dimensions, units, drawings and destination requirements. | A clear line-by-line enquiry helps reduce omissions and incompatible substitutions. |
| Processing plan | Confirm cutting, finishing, inspection and identification items in writing. | The buyer can assess scope and acceptance before production or sourcing proceeds. |
| Packing & dispatch | Coordinate labels, packing list, suitable protection and shipping-document requirements. | Piece count and heat/lot correspondence can be checked at agreed milestones. |
| After-sales follow-up | Review order references, arrival photos and inspection records for reported issues. | A documented issue description supports a specific response and follow-up. |
08 / Request a Detailed Quotation
Send the standard and edition, grade, size schedule, quantity per size, material condition, finish, processing drawings, tests/documents, packing requirements and destination port. Include maximum piece or package weight and any project approval requirements. Pricing, minimum quantity and lead time will be confirmed against the actual requirement.
