Build With APL Apollo’s Structural Steel
While the world is moving towards high-performance materials in structural engineering, structural steel tubes are becoming the first choice of new-age architects and engineers. Compared to the conventional fabricated box plates or PEB (Pre-engineered buildings) construction, structural steel tubes offer higher strength to weight ratio, better torsional rigidity, and improved efficiency.
Catering to the increasing demand for high strength materials, APL Apollo offers high-performance structural steel tubes that add strength to the buildings besides improving their architectural aesthetics. These hollow sections, being one of the most versatile building materials, help in optimizing material costs and reducing the self-weight of structures. At APL Apollo, we offer an unparalleled range of structural steel sections to give a strong foundation to your spectacular buildings. Come, Build With Us!

BENEFITS OF STRUCTURAL STEEL TUBES
UTILITY FOR EVERYONE INVOLVE
Fabricators
- Easy to bend, form, punch and drill
- Lie flat and are easy to jig
- No pre- or post-heating required for welding
- Mating parts fit together without notching or copying joints
Architects & Engineers
- Aesthetically pleasing
- Deliver exceptional torsional resistance and compressive strength
- Less surface area than open sections and can weigh less in certain applications, reducing project costs
- Readily available in a wide range of sizes
Distributors
- Build strong structures
- Readily available for delivery
OEMs
- Easy to bend, form, punch, drill, weld and fit together
- A superior, cost-effective manufacturing material
- Uniform strength, high strength-to-weight ratios and aesthetic appeal
- Do more with less steel
