ASTM A500 tube is a standard specification for cold-formed welded and seamless carbon steel structural tubing in round, square and rectangular shapes. ASTM A500 is the most common specification in North America for Hollow Structural Sections (HSS).
ASTM A500 applications include structural supports, building columns, highway signs, oil field services and communication towers.
