CHICAGO, Jan. 30, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Atlas Tube, a division of JMC Steel Group, announced today the expansion of their Jumbo HSS product line with the addition of two new sizes of jumbo square hollow structural sections (HSS).
Atlas Tube Jumbo HSS comes in a wide range of weights and dimensions. Atlas currently offers Jumbo HSS in wall thicknesses of .500" to .875". Now, Atlas Tube will also offer 18" and 20" square Jumbo HSS in a wall thickness of .375".
