Generally available in 7.500 to 7.650 Metre lengths in Grade 43; however other lengths and grades are available. For your information Kg/m refers to the Kilograms per Metre of the section, as an example a 4.200 Metre length of 40 x 40 x 3mm (SHS) Square Steel Hollow Section (3.45 Kg/m) would weigh (4.2 x 3.45) 14.49 Kg’s Total. Concrete lintels provide durable support for a variety of different structures and architectural elements, giving you a reliable way to distribute weight and hold doors and windows in position. Jewson prestressed and precast concrete lintels can be used to disperse pressure over a larger area, reducing the risk of structural instability.

Like most upmarket cars of its era, the X150 features an electronic handbrake – and it can cause problems, particularly now that even the youngest cars are heading for seven years old. A Jaguar dealer or independent specialist will be able to fix any issues, but it’s not a job for the average DIY-er, as the service mode has to be engaged using the car’s diagnostic port to prevent the handbrake’s calipers potentially closing as you remove the pads. From its launch through to its first facelift, the Jaguar XK X150 used the same 294bhp 4.2-litre V8 that had seen service in later XK8s. From 2009, however, it gained an all-new 380bhp 5.0-litre V8 with direct injection. As before, there were supercharged XKR versions of the XK, which raised the 4.2-litre model’s power to 420bhp and the 5.0-litre’s to 503bhp. There was also a 4.2 XKR-S (launched in 2008 and limited to just 200 cars), which boasted no extra power but did offer ‘chassis’ tweaks; and the XKR-S continued when the 5.0-litre range arrived, boosting power to around 540bhp. Metal Supplies™ have been supplying the UK building and construction industry with all types of structural steel for many years, including a wide range of Mild Steel Steel Hollow Sections: square, rectangular and circular.Rectangular hollow sections are not as common as UCs and UBs. This is down to the fact that it is much more difficult to bolt it to other beams or to bolt other members to it. They are also available in mild steel to make drilling and welding easier. Jaguar also introduced various special editions of the X150, including the XK60 of 2008 (featuring cosmetic tweaks to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the XK120), the XKR 75 of 2010 and, three years later, the very exclusive XKR-S GT – the latter featuring a race-spec cabin, a further-strengthened bodyshell and heavily reworked suspension. This new-generation XK was a game-changer in terms of Jaguar sports car construction, making full use of the firm’s new-found expertise in aluminium, following on from the X350-series XJ saloon. The latest XK employed an aluminium bonded and riveted monocoque with aluminium body panels (there were only two welds in the entire car, one either side of the roof), making the X150 around 90kg lighter than the previous steel-bodied X100. And it was stiffer too, with this second-generation XK coupe and convertible being around 50 per cent and 30 per cent more rigid than their predecessors respectively. The Jaguar XK X150 still looks fresh and modern to this day, and so it’s a sobering thought that 2021 marked its 15th anniversary. It now falls firmly into modern classic territory, with attainable prices proving temping but sure to increase in coming years.

For your information Kg/m refers to the Kilograms per Metre of the section, as an example a 4.200 Metre length of 48.3 OD x 3.2mm (CHS) Circular Steel Hollow Section (3.56 Kg/m) would weigh (4.2 x 3.56) 14.952 Kg's Total. 21.3 OD x 3.2mm (CHS) Circular Steel Hollow Section (1.43 Kg/m) The XK X150’s extra stiffness compared with the X100 really helps when it comes to the car’s ride and handling, with even the convertible having the kind of rigidity that was once unheard of in an open-top GT. Compared with its predecessor, it’s roomier and more comfortable for taller drivers; and the interior is inevitably far more modern looking, with none of the XK8’s typically-Jaguar wood-veneer trim.

Rear seat accommodation in each is obviously restricted, and really only suitable for children – but for anyone in the market for a GT, this won’t be a huge hindrance. Suspension, steering and brakes The increase in engine capacity didn’t just bring extra power and performance, as the 5.0-litre also proved to be more eager to rev than the old 4.2, arguably making it more of a driver’s car. The upgrades of 2009 also brought a new-spec diff and Bilstein variable dampers (replacing Jaguar’s Computer Active Technology System and its Comfort and Sport settings), with the latest set-up adding an even sportier feel to the driving experience. Exterior changes, meanwhile, included new lights and mirrors, and narrow front-mounted brake cooling ducts.

The original X100-series XK8 and supercharged XKR range that arrived in 1996 – replacing the evergreen XJS in the process – proved to be a major hit, effectively reinventing the Jaguar sports car and going on to enjoy a decade-long career. A successor would eventually be needed, however, if Jaguar was to remain competitive in the hotly contested GT market, hence the 2006 launch of the all-new Jaguar XK X150 – the production version of a concept coupe that had made its motor show debut the previous year. The good news with a modern classic using such an innovative aluminium bonded and riveted monocoque and featuring all-aluminium body panels is that the traditional issue of rust (a familiar problem for anyone running a neglected example of the X150’s steel-bodied predecessor) won’t arise.The ZF automatic transmission used in the XK X150 was designed to be maintenance-free, but it makes sense to have the oil changed at around the 60,000 miles mark for long-term reliability. The gearbox filter should be changed at the same time. Proper fraction button is used to change a number of the form of 9/5 to the form of 1 4/5. A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (top number) is less than the denominator (bottom number). All 4.2-litre X150s were fitted with a six-speed ZF 6HP26 automatic transmission, with Jaguar Sequential Shift and famous J-gate gear selector. The arrival of the 5.0-litre, however, saw this set-up swapped for a six-speed ZF 6HP28 unit linked to the latest JaguarDrive rotary gear selector. If its a capable V8-powered GT you want, you’ll have to pay more for an equivalent Bentley or Aston Martin from the early to mid 2000s – and in our view, the XK can easily hold its own in that company.

The very last X150-series XK rolled out of Jaguar’s Castle Bromwich plant in July 2014, after a successful run of just under 54,000 cars. It was the end of the line for the XK as a whole, its effective successor being the new F-Type that went on sale in the spring of that year. Proper fraction button and Improper fraction button work as pair. When you choose the one the other is switched off. The last Jaguar XK – codenamed X150 – is perhaps the most complete GT ever made by the British brand. Here’s how to buy a great example of this modern classic RHS in cold and hot finish. Mild Steel Rectangular and Square hollow section, also called box section. Can be supplied in various grades including BS EN 10025 S355 and S275.
