EN 10219 Hollow Section · Cold Formed Welded Structural Tubing Standard
EN 10219 Hollow Section
EN 10219 Hollow Section should be ordered against the exact standard edition/project requirement plus shape, grade, dimensions, tolerances, testing and documents. A matching standard name does not by itself prove a particular product is compliant.
Price on request · standard/edition, grade and mechanical basis confirmed against BS EN 10219, the governing project specification and the mill certificate — never from the product name alone
Fit, alternatives & selection logic
Decide when EN 10219 fits — and how to state it
BS EN 10219 is the cold formed welded steel structural-hollow-section standard family that names the ordering basis for carbon steel hollow sections in round, square or rectangular shapes — not a universal steel item. Pair it with the exact edition and scope, the hollow-section shape, grade, material/finish, dimensions, wall, tolerance, code/specification direction, service or test requirement and documentation. Compare it against the registered alternatives before fixing the spec: only the explicit standard/edition, shape, grade, dimensions, tolerance, service requirement and inspection-document set together complete the ordering basis.
Standard and shape are stated requirements
'EN 10219' names a structural-hollow-section standard family — not a universal steel item. Pair it with the exact edition and scope, the hollow-section shape (round, square, rectangular), dimensions, wall, material/finish, grade, code/specification direction, tolerance, testing and MTC needs so the ordering and compliance basis are explicit.
Grade/material/finish is explicit
The EN 10219 series covers cold formed welded steel structural hollow sections, so the grade, material and any finish/coating must be stated with the standard and shape — never instead of them, and never inferred from the product name alone.
Hollow-section shape
Round (tube), square (SHS) or rectangular (RHS) shape changes connection, fabrication and dimensional inputs — state the exact geometry alongside the standard.
Dimensions, tolerance & service
Dimensions, wall thickness, tolerance basis, unit weight, service conditions and any test requirement are fixed by the standard, the code self-check and the project specification — confirm them with the standard, never instead of it.
Compare the registered choices
State the type, material and grade requirement explicitly
An EN 10219 Hollow Section is only meaningfully compared against a registered cold formed hollow-section type route where the forming/geometry is decided, against a registered weathering-steel material route where the material/finish requirement is explicit, and against a registered mechanical-grade path (s355j2h) where the mechanical and MTC requirement is fixed. Never treat the standard, grade, shape or material as a generic steel item — state the delivery condition, edition, finish and grade requirement.
Working decision tool
EN 10219 Hollow Section Standards Coverage Checker
Build a scope-match and RFQ decision from requested standard/edition, shape, manufacturing condition, grade, dimensions, tolerance, inspection/testing, quantity, destination and document requirements. The checker distinguishes scope from compliance — a product being the right shape does not prove conformity — and produces an ordering-data checklist, any out-of-scope warning, and a copyable RFQ summary. It never publishes unsourced yield, tensile, chemistry or tolerance numbers.
RFQ summary
Standards, grades, dimensions & service conditions
Specify the EN 10219 hollow section so it is verifiable, not assumed
The BS EN 10219 edition and the governing project specification fix the substrate scope, chemistry, tolerances, testing and ordering requirements for cold formed welded steel structural hollow sections; the shape, outside dimensions, wall thickness, tolerance basis, length, unit weight, service condition and finish complete the ordering basis. Every table is a decision aid carrying no invented numerical value — each figure is confirmed against the governing edition, the project specification, the MTC or the supplier evidence.
Grade and standard
BS EN 10219 is the cold formed welded steel structural-hollow-section standard family that names the ordering basis. The exact edition, scope, grade, code/specification direction and any project-spec requirement must all be named.
Dimensions and wall thickness
Shape (round, square or rectangular), outside dimensions, wall thickness, thickness basis and length carried under one unit system, matched to the prescribed tolerance and control basis.
Tolerance & test requirement
The tolerance basis and any test set required by the edition or project specification are explicit and confirmed — never an unsourced mechanical, chemical or tolerance figure.
| Project / product context | Standard family | Applies to / limitation | Verify / evidence | RFQ field |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cold formed welded steel structural hollow sections (round / square / rectangular shapes) | BS EN 10219 — current edition | Applicable where cold formed welded steel structural hollow sections are specified; confirm edition, scope, shape, grade, dimensions, tolerances, testing and ordering requirements. | Governing edition, scope, shape, outside dimensions, wall thickness, tolerance basis, finish, supplementary requirements | Standard/edition + shape + geometry |
| Compliance vs scope | BS EN 10219 — scope-match only | The checker distinguishes scope from compliance: a product being the right shape does not prove conformity. Require document and edition verification before a compliance state. | Governing edition, MTC/test, dimensional record, project spec | Standard/edition + documents + test |
| Governing grades / material | EN 10219 series — grade per edition (incl. S235 / S355 family) | Confirm the grade against the current edition and project specification; a project spec can impose requirements beyond EN 10219. | Governing edition, grade, material/finish, tolerances | Grade/material/standard + tolerances |
| Property group | Units / method | Source | Conditions & evidence warning | Publication state |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mechanical properties (yield / tensile) by grade | Per governing EN 10219 edition test method | Governing edition / MTC per consignment | Mechanical minimums are grade- and edition-defined and project-spec-confirmed; do not reproduce paywalled tables from memory or infer from the standard name alone. | Blocked to publication until verified against a current source |
| Substrate chemistry | Weight % per governing edition | Governing edition / MTC per consignment | Exact chemistry is defined by the standard and grade, not by the name; confirm the mill certificate. | Blocked to publication until verified against a current source |
| Dimensions, wall & tolerance | Dimensions per unit system; wall/tolerance per edition | Registered size / dimension chart + mill ticket | Size, wall, tolerance and mass must be confirmed against the governing edition and the control basis. | Blocked to publication until verified against a current source |
| Unit weight & test records | Per governing edition; test per project spec | Registered weight chart + mill ticket | Unit weight and any project-required test set are edition- and project-spec-defined. | Blocked to publication until verified against a current source |
| Sectional properties vs EN 10210 | Not interchangeable | BSI scope / governing edition | Do not assume EN 10219 dimensional/sectional properties are equivalent to EN 10210; verify against the governing edition. | Blocked to publication until verified against a current source |
Specification route
Anchor to the standard routes and the registered aids
Confirm the governing EN steel grades, the registered standard route (ASTM A500 where the project directs it as a comparison), and verify a dimension or size input before it becomes an RFQ ordering basis. The technical charts verify a figure before quotation.
These tables are decision aids only and carry no numerical technical value; every gauge, weight, dimension, tolerance, chemical, mechanical or test figure is confirmed against the governing BS EN 10219 edition, the project specification and the mill certificate before quotation. Price on request.
Quality, testing & documentation
The document set is a deliverable, not a footnote
A buyer purchasing EN 10219 Hollow Section on a standard/edition, dimensional, tolerance and mechanical basis needs the test evidence and paper trail to match the steel. Standard conformity, MTC and test evidence, dimensional inspection, finish evidence and the commercial destination documents are separated so nothing is implied that is not evidenced.
- Mill Test Certificate — chemistry and mechanical minimums against the governing EN 10219 edition and grade
- Dimensional / gauge record against the standard (shape, outside dimensions, wall thickness, length)
- Heat / lot traceability to the shipped consignment
- Dimensional, surface, edge or mechanical inspection per the agreed route
- Test set where the project specification imposes requirements beyond EN 10219
- Finish / coating-condition check where it applies to the ordered surface
- Commercial invoice and packing list
- Origin / transport documents per the Incoterm
- Customs declaration inputs for the destination
What is verified, when, and what stays quotation-dependent
- Standard conformity and chemistry are confirmed against the governing edition and project specification — never an unsupported certificate.
- Mechanical and test evidence with the test basis is requested explicitly so the applied property set matches a stated requirement.
- Stock, mill origin, price and lead time are quotation-dependent and confirmed with your offer — nothing is implied by this page.

What the source actually proves that changes the EN 10219 Hollow Section decision
A source-scope checkpoint with buyer implication and an explicit non-equivalence and compliance boundary. The decision aid maps the buyer's requested standard/edition, shape, grade, dimensions, tolerance, service and documentation to the governing specification scope — it is not a named-person endorsement and not a standards professional.
British Standards Institution — BS EN 10219 series
Official primary source · reviewed for scope
What does the primary source actually prove that changes the buyer decision for EN 10219 Hollow Section? Check whether the requested standard/edition, shape, grade, dimensions, tolerance, service or test requirement and documentation align with the governing specification scope before the RFQ — and use the current BS EN 10219 edition as a bounded comparison to fix the exact scope, shape, grade, dimensions, tolerances, mechanical and test obligations before any technical claim is accepted.
Buyer implication: use the source to validate scope and the questions that must be fixed in the RFQ for EN 10219 Hollow Section. The RFQ must carry the exact standard/edition, shape, grade, code/specification direction, outside dimensions, wall thickness, tolerance basis, test and document inputs the governing project specification expects — and conformity, certification and commercial outcomes remain separate, verification-dependent steps after the technical product description is complete. Do not convert the source into unsupported stock, compliance, performance or logistics claims.
Scope: cold formed welded steel structural hollow sections; the series separates technical delivery conditions from tolerances, dimensions and sectional properties. Limitations: the public BSI series page is a scope/index source rather than a substitute for the purchased standard text, and do not assume EN 10219 dimensional/sectional properties are interchangeable with EN 10210 — BSI notes that square/rectangular sectional properties are not equivalent. Verify the purchase order and current licensed standard. The source does not prove Noor Deira Steel inventory, price, lead time, origin, mill, certification, project approval or fitness for a particular design, and does not equate the standard name with a universal mechanical guarantee.
