Galvanized square steel tube is a high-strength, corrosion-resistant structural hollow section widely used in construction, manufacturing, and infrastructure. This product, also known as a GI hollow section or zinc square pipe, is manufactured from cold-rolled steel that is formed into a square profile and then coated with a protective layer of zinc through a hot-dip galvanizing process. This zinc coating provides exceptional defense against rust and environmental wear, making it a durable and cost-effective choice for demanding applications. ChinaCNU Steel, with over 15 years of expertise, produces premium galvanized square and rectangular tubes in Qingdao, China, exporting to global markets.
Our galvanized square steel tubes are produced to meet international standards, offering a range of sizes and coatings to suit various project requirements. Below are our standard specifications.

The terms are often used interchangeably. Galvanized square steel tube specifically describes the shape, while GI hollow section (Galvanized Iron Hollow Section) is a broader technical term that can refer to square, rectangular, or other shaped tubes. Both refer to a cold-formed steel tube with a hot-dip zinc coating for corrosion protection.
The primary advantage is superior corrosion resistance. The zinc coating acts as a sacrificial layer, protecting the underlying steel from rust caused by rain, humidity, and pollutants. This makes zinc square pipe ideal for long-lasting outdoor structures like fencing, frameworks, and signage with minimal maintenance required.
