Fence post with chamfered edges EN AW-6060 75 x 75 mm (4 screw holes)
Fence post EN AW-6060 100 x 100 mm (4 screw holes). For fencing applications, tubes with a 3 mm wall thickness are most commonly used. Lighter posts can be used for less demanding applications or lighter infill, while heavier posts are suitable for taller fences or applications requiring greater structural stability.
As the tubes are 6 m long, fence posts are generally cut to heights of 1000 mm, 1500 mm or 2000 mm to optimise material usage.
Other square tube dimensions are also available on request for customers with specific requirements.

As with the fence posts, customers generally opt for lighter profiles. However, tubes with a 2 mm wall thickness provide greater stability and rigidity to the overall fence structure.
These profiles are also 6 m long, so rectangular tubes used as infill are generally cut to 1500 mm or 2000 mm to optimise material usage.
Other dimensions of 20 mm wide tubes are also available on request, such as 70 x 20 x 2 mm, 150 x 20 x 2 mm, 200 x 20 x 2 mm, etc.
