Inox Steel India is a recognized manufacturer and global supplier of EN 10219 Hollow Sections, including Square (SHS), Rectangular (RHS), and Circular (CHS) profiles engineered for structural applications requiring high strength, dimensional accuracy, and excellent toughness. Manufactured in accordance with EN 10219-1 & EN 10219-2, these cold-formed welded structural hollow sections are widely used in engineering structures, offshore platforms, machinery fabrication, modular construction, cranes, towers, and load-bearing frameworks across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.
EN 10219 specifies performance requirements for non-alloy and fine-grain structural steels such as S235JRH, S275JRH, S355J0H, and S355J2H, known for their mechanical reliability, weldability, and impact strength. Grades with suffixes J0H and J2H undergo Charpy impact testing at 0°C and –20°C, ensuring high toughness in cold and demanding environments.
Inox Steel India offers EN 10219 hollow sections in a comprehensive size range from 20×20 mm to 400×400 mm (SHS), 30×20 mm to 500×300 mm (RHS), and 21.3 mm to 610 mm OD (CHS) with thicknesses up to 16 mm. Options include bare black finish, pickled & oiled finish, and galvanized coatings for superior corrosion protection.
Our EN 10219 hollow sections are trusted by EPC contractors, structural designers, steel fabricators, and OEM manufacturers for projects requiring European-standard quality, certified mechanical properties, and exceptional performance under static and dynamic loading conditions.
EN 10219 hollow sections are produced through a cold-forming and precision welding sequence designed to meet stringent European quality and toughness standards.
1️⃣ Slit Coil Preparation
High-quality structural steel coils (S235 / S275 / S355) are slit to precise widths based on the final SHS, RHS, or CHS profile.
2️⃣ Cold Forming Process
Slit strips are gradually shaped through automated roll-forming stands into square, rectangular, or circular profiles with controlled corner radii and thickness uniformity.
3️⃣ High-Frequency Induction Welding (HFIW)
Edges are joined using HF welding to produce a consistent, strong, and reliable weld seam.
4️⃣ Weld Bead Removal & Heat-Affected Zone Control
Internal and external weld scallops are scarfed, and heat-affected zones are controlled to meet EN 10219 mechanical requirements.
5️⃣ Dimensional Sizing and Calibration
Sections pass through precision sizing mills to achieve exact dimensions, straightness, squareness, and tolerances as per EN standards.
6️⃣ Impact-Test Grade Processing (J0H / J2H)
Mechanical and impact-strength properties are controlled to ensure performance at low temperatures.
7️⃣ Surface Finishing – Bare, Pickled, Oiled, or Galvanized
Sections may be supplied in uncoated form or with protective galvanization depending on project requirements.
8️⃣ Final Inspection & Testing
Tensile testing, impact testing, weld integrity testing, and dimensional checks ensure conformity to EN 10219.
This manufacturing flow ensures high-quality structural hollow sections suitable for demanding European and international engineering applications.
These attributes make EN 10219 hollow sections the preferred choice for structurally demanding and safety-critical applications.
