Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter – IS 4923 / EN 10219
Inox Steel India is a trusted manufacturer, stockist, and global exporter of Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) engineered for high-performance structural, architectural, and fabrication applications. Manufactured according to IS 4923 and EN 10219, our RHS products deliver exceptional strength, dimensional accuracy, flat-sided uniformity, and superior weldability for modern construction and engineering requirements.
RHS is widely preferred for structures that demand strong axial load capacity, excellent bending resistance, and easy integration into fabricated assemblies. The flat surfaces and optimized corner radii of RHS make it particularly suitable for PEB structures, solar mounting systems, heavy industrial frameworks, and civil infrastructure.
With advanced ERW/HFIW forming lines and cold-forming capabilities, Inox Steel India produces RHS in sizes ranging from 40×20 mm to 500×300 mm with wall thicknesses up to 20 mm. Our ISO-certified production, strict testing protocols, and comprehensive traceability ensure consistent quality for domestic and international customers across the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and the Americas.
Rectangular Hollow Sections are produced through a precise shaping and welding process that ensures strength, stability, and uniformity:
1️⃣ Slitting & Coil Preparation – High-grade steel coils are slit into strips of exact width.
2️⃣ Roll Forming – The strip is shaped into a rectangular profile with controlled corner radii.
3️⃣ High-Frequency Induction Welding – A continuous weld forms the joint while maintaining structural integrity.
4️⃣ Cold-Forming (EN 10219) – Used to achieve accurate dimensions and enhanced mechanical properties.
5️⃣ Sizing & Calibration – Ensures exact width, height, wall thickness, and flatness tolerance.
6️⃣ Non-Destructive Testing – UT/Eddy Current tests applied to confirm weld soundness.
7️⃣ Cutting & Finishing – Supplied in plain or bevelled end conditions.
8️⃣ Surface Treatment – Black, GI, painted, and oiled options available.
This advanced manufacturing sequence guarantees that each RHS meets structural and architectural demands with long-term reliability.
High bending and moment resistance due to rectangular geometry
These properties make RHS the backbone of many engineering, solar, and civil projects worldwide.

Key Factors to Consider When Selecting RHS
1️⃣ Load Orientation – Choose RHS where one direction requires higher bending resistance.
2️⃣ Corner Profile & Flatness – Critical for bolting, welding, and aesthetic finishing.
3️⃣ Thickness vs. Span Length – Thicker RHS performs better for long-span or high-moment structures.
4️⃣ Service Environment – GI/Painted RHS recommended for outdoor installations.
5️⃣ Compliance – Middle East/EU prefer EN 10219; India uses IS 4923.
