With a gradual or ‘softer’ flat-to-curve transition in its form, stock rail also know as cattle rail is designed to reduce bruising or injury to livestock.

Stock rail is also a popular choice for a host of other end-uses such as property entrances.

Features

• Coated in DuraGal Plus for superior corrosion protection
• Smooth, elongated edges minimise risk of bruising and injury to livestock
• Lightweight, easy to handle and transport
• Flat sides allow for easy connectivity
• Minimal weld spatter or fumes

Relevant Standards

• AS/NZS 1450:  Steel tubes for mechanical purposes

InfraBuild Steel Centre stocks a wide variety of black CHS steel. Black CHS steel tubes are high-strength, cold formed hollow sections, coated with a mineral-based finish that is easily removed by an alkali solution or kerosene.

Unless used for benign corrosion environments, the coating will need to be removed for further priming and top coating. Black CHS steel can be fabricated using normal workshop techniques. Standard pre-treatment processes will easily prepare the product prior to galvanizing.

Typical Uses

• Agriculture engineering
• Construction manufacturing
• Mining investment
• Non-residential construction
• Residential construction
• Transport and storage

Features

• Mineral-based finish, which can be easily removed prior to fabrication

Relevant Standards

• AS/NZS 1163: Cold-formed structural steel hollow sections
