White 1/2" Square Steel Tube x .049" Wall Cut to Size

This white 0.5 in square steel tube with a .049" wall is a pre-finished, ready-to-use steel tube, designed for applications where clean lines, durability, and appearance matter. Each tube is powder coated in a gloss white finish at our U.S. facility, eliminating secondary finishing steps and reducing total project lead time.

The square profile provides crisp edges and easy alignment, making this tubing ideal for frames, uprights, retail fixtures, displays, signage, and fabricated assemblies where precise geometry and a professional finish are required.

Why Powder Coat Square Steel Tubing?

Square steel tubing offers excellent strength and dimensional stability, but unfinished steel often requires painting or plating before it can be used in visible applications. Powder coating is an environmentally friendly finishing process that delivers a uniform, durable finish that outperforms paint in many commercial environments:

• Scratch and chip resistant
• Consistent color and sheen
• Improved corrosion resistance versus raw steel
• Clean, professional appearance out of the box

Because we powder coat in house, finish quality and repeatability are built into every order. Because tubing is cut to size prior to powder coating, all exposed edges are fully finished, making each tube ready for installation or fabrication immediately upon delivery.

Typical Applications

• Retail fixture frames and uprights
• Display structures and sub-frames
• Sign frames and supports
• Architectural accents and trim

Note: Powder coating requires a hang hole. Tubes under 60" long will have a hang hole on one end. Tubes over 60" long (up to 144") may have a hang hole on each end. Hang holes are small and intended for finishing and handling only, not for structural loading.
