Professional FAQ on Square Post Technology & Service

Q1: What steel grades are commonly used for square fence posts?
Industry standards are Q235, Q345 (Chinese), ASTM A36 (US), or stainless steel 304/316; all offer excellent weldability and corrosion resistance.
Q2: What is the minimum wall thickness for a durable square post in outdoor applications?
Recommended: ≥1.5mm for residential/light duty, ≥2.5mm for heavy-duty/industrial. Thicker walls enhance load and impact resilience.
Q3: How does powder coating compare with hot-dip galvanizing for square metal posts?
Powder coating offers a wide RAL color range and UV protection, but hot-dip galvanizing (HDG) achieves deeper corrosion resistance (zinc ≥65μm). Dual-layer (HDG+powder) gives the longest service life.
Q4: What are the main international standards for square steel post production?
Key standards: ISO 1461 (galvanized coatings), EN 10219 (hollow steel sections), ANSI/AWS D1.1 (welding), ISO 9001 (quality management).
Q5: How long is the delivery cycle for custom square tube posts?
For standard size: 7-14 days. Custom size/finish: 16-22 days. Emergency rush orders possible (contact here).
Q6: What kind of warranty and after-sales support is provided?
Hyliec provides a 10-year warranty for HDG posts, global technical advice, replacement parts, and same-day response (email support).
Q7: Is it possible to order square metal fence post with logo printing and specific color?
Yes. Options include laser engraving, color powder coat to RAL codes, and unique packaging (MOQ applies).
