Custom Shaped Steel Tube Made to Section Requirements
HC Metal supplies custom shaped steel tube and high-frequency welded tube profiles. The product gallery shows rounded, flat-sided, lobed and other non-standard cross-sections. A dimensioned section drawing is the basis for confirming the product, its fit and the manufacturing requirements.
Custom Shaped Steel Tube specifications
| Product family | Custom-profile and high-frequency welded steel tubes |
|---|---|
| Section dimensions | Confirm from a dimensioned drawing |

Size ranges describe the supplied product range. Confirm the exact combination and availability with the order specification.
A drawing-led custom shaped steel tube enquiry
Show the full external section and all dimensions that control fit. Include wall thickness, corner or curved-face requirements, the required length and any orientation that matters in the assembly. Mark critical dimensions clearly instead of relying on a profile nickname.
If the section mates with a fitting or forms part of a furniture component, provide the relevant mating drawing or sample dimensions. State material grade, surface condition and tolerances where specified. The factory can then review the section as a complete manufacturing requirement.
Reviewing profile options and order details
The product gallery gathers different special sections for review. The visible profile is one part of the specification. Confirm its external dimensions, wall thickness, finished length and fit requirements before the section is approved for supply.
Before an order is released, agree the profile reference, drawing revision, quantity basis, finished length and packing identification. For repeat supply, the same reference should appear on the order, bundle labels and packing list so visually similar profiles can be distinguished.
Bundle packing and export dispatch
Agree product references, quantities, handling limits and packing identification before dispatch. For mixed sizes, match each bundle to its item on the packing list. The factory loading images show handling activity; final packing and shipment details are confirmed for each order.
Product questions
Can I order a special section by its photograph alone?
A photograph is useful for an initial discussion. A dimensioned drawing or verified sample measurements are needed to establish the section, wall thickness, length and fit requirements before an order is confirmed.
How should a special profile be identified on an order?
Use an agreed drawing or product reference and include its revision. The same reference should identify the quotation item, approved section and packed tube bundles, especially when several profiles look similar.
What should be included for a new custom section?
Provide the cross-section drawing, critical dimensions, wall thickness, length, quantity, material and surface requirements. Add the intended application and mating-part details when they affect the section or its acceptance.
For a matched supply review, include your drawing or item schedule with section dimensions, wall thickness, length, finish and quantity. Contact details and enquiry form
