Aluminium Square Tubes (Jäckl)
Hollow sections (box sections) are square or rectangular aluminum or steel tubing used as load-bearing structural members for frames, supports, and frameworks. Thanks to their high rigidity and strength, they are ideal for advertising display stands, structural frame systems, and industrial assemblies. These sections can be easily joined, welded, or mechanically fastened depending on your project requirements.

High durability alloys are suitable for any application in structures. Hollow square profiles are available in a variety of sizes and we offer a length of 6 m. Rectangular tube can be adjusted to your desired length.
FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
What are box sections and where can you use them?
Box sections (square and rectangular hollow sections) are tubular profiles with a square or rectangular cross-section, engineered for high structural strength and load capacity. They serve as load-bearing structural members for frames, substructures, and supports across signage, industrial, and building construction. Thanks to their versatile geometry, they can be readily machined and tailored to specific structural demands.
How do I choose the right box section for my project?
When specifying a box section, evaluate the external dimensions, wall thickness, and projected structural loads. Heavier wall gauges and larger cross-sections deliver higher moment capacity and rigidity, though they increase overall dead weight. Choose dimensions and gauges aligned directly with your engineering requirements.
How are box sections typically joined and assembled?
Box sections can be welded, bolted, or mechanically joined using corner brackets, gusset plates, and internal connector fittings. Precise mitring, square cuts, and clean deburring prior to assembly are vital for strong joints. Any chosen joining method yields a robust, rigid assembly provided the tolerances and fittings are fully compatible.
