FAQ

What's the difference between IS 4923 and IS 1161 sections?

IS 4923 covers square (SHS) and rectangular (RHS) hollow sections. IS 1161 covers circular (CHS) tubular sections for structural use. EN 10219 is the European equivalent often specified in modern projects.

Are these sections available galvanised?

Yes — we can supply pre-galvanised hollow sections (GP), and we also undertake hot-dip galvanizing job work for black hollow sections at our facility.

How do I get a price for Hollow Sections (SHS, RHS, CHS)?

Send the exact size, grade, approved make, quantity and delivery location. Request a dated quotation with validity, taxes, freight and processing charges clearly stated; chart weights are not a price or stock commitment.

Are all listed Hollow Sections (SHS, RHS, CHS) sizes available immediately?

The size chart is a reference, not a live inventory feed. Confirm the requested size, grade, make, available lengths, minimum order quantity and dispatch schedule with SIIPL before placing an order.

What should I confirm about mill certificates and billed weight?

Include your mill test certificate, material marking and heat-number traceability requirements in the enquiry. Agree whether billing uses actual weighed weight or another stated basis, and request the relevant weight records before order confirmation.

Can I enquire about exporting Hollow Sections (SHS, RHS, CHS) from India?

Yes. Share the destination country and port, exact product standard and grade, quantity, delivery schedule, packing and inspection requirements. SIIPL reviews export requirements individually; destination compliance and commercial terms must be agreed for the order.
