A popular variation on square steel tubing, Timeless’s unique radius square tube boasts a beautifully contoured shape. The refined design looks and feels better than square tube and conventional box tubing, making it an excellent alternative to standard square shaped tube.
Due to its appealing softened corners and the range of available sizes, this tubing is ideal for balustrades and handrails. The two largest tube sizes are suitable for newel posts (commonly known as staircase spindles). Our engineers have formed this tubing from ‘marine grade’ 316L stainless steel to be used as grab rails on luxury tender boats; it is both elegant and ergonomically viable as an important safety feature onboard world-class sea-faring craft.
Our stainless steel radius square tubing has impressive strength integrity. Timeless’s robust deflection tests show that when tested on the flat side (the ‘flush’), the radius square tube is 54% stronger in terms of its deflection capacity than its round tube equivalent. Its strength, coupled with its symmetry, means that our radius square steel tube is an ideal candidate for bending, should you require a large radius bend for your application.
Boasting gently contoured edges, this unique rectangular shaped tube is a variation on our much-loved radius square tube. A recent addition to the Timeless tube family, this exciting profile can be made from stainless steel, brass or aluminium. If you are interested in this new rectangular tube then phone us to discuss your application and the size you require: our engineers love developing new sizes.

Stainless steel and aluminium 5083 radius square tube profiles are sold in lengths of 5.8m (the manufacturing process reduces the standard 6m length by 0.2 metres).

Tolerances
Upon request, we will be able to find out wall thickness tolerances from our metal suppliers. Typically the tolerance levels of wall thickness are extremely minimal and any small variations in thickness do not affect further fabrication or the end application. However, it is important to let us know if the tolerance is critical to the application before you place an order. For example, if the shaped tubing component needs to go inside another component, or if the tubing has to house a component, any variation in wall thickness could be critical.
