Dimensions and Pricing Details for 10x10 Iron Tube (50×25×4 mm)
The dimensions of the 10x10 iron tube refer to the cross-section measuring 5 cm × 2.5 cm (or 50 mm × 25 mm), which is entirely different from smaller square types. At Matkal, we provide these dimensions with precision to ensure compatibility with construction beams.
When searching for the price of 10x10 iron tube today, be aware that the term "10x10" may be misunderstood as 10 cm × 10 cm. However, in the context of our available products, the size is 50×25 mm with a thickness of 4 mm.
Comparing Iron Tubes with Broad (Solid Iron)
Many contractors in Riyadh and Dammam often confuse the use of iron tubes with the use of broad (solid iron). The fundamental difference lies in weight and strength: broad is heavy solid iron used in structural foundations, whereas iron tubes are hollow (such as our product YT-08958212) and are used in secondary structures or scaffolding due to their lighter weight and lower cost.
In the event of sandstorms and extreme heat in Saudi Arabia, lightweight iron tubes (4 mm) are easier to transport and handle without the risk of collapse that workers might face when carrying heavy broad for extended periods.
