New sizes, on display at NASCC 2026, enhance design flexibility and construction speed
Atlas Tube, a Zekelman company, is expanding its Shuriken Structural Nut Keeper line, introducing additional size options and integrations within the HSS Connections Hub™ that make it easier than ever to use Hollow Structural Sections (HSS) in steel projects.
The Shuriken lineup now includes five total sizes to support a broader range of applications:
• New 5/8” size available March 25
• New 1-1/8” size available April 8
• All other sizes (3/4”, 7/8” and 1”) are in stock and available for immediate delivery at www.atlastube.com
The expanded lineup provides engineers and fabricators with greater flexibility to design across a wider range of HSS sizes, while continuing to deliver faster construction through the elimination of costly and time-consuming field welding. Shuriken enables single-sided, fieldbolted connections, simplifying steel erection and reducing labor demands on the jobsite.
Enhanced Design Support for Shuriken Through the HSS Connections Hub Atlas Tube has also expanded its HSS Connections Hub capabilities to enable more design flexibility with Shuriken. The goal with these updates was to provide engineers and fabricators with new features to leverage the time and cost-savings opportunities associated with Shuriken applications.
New features include:
• Support for all five Shuriken sizes
• Adjustable bolt spacing for HSS splices
• HSS splices with a single row of bolts
See Shuriken at NASCC 2026 The new sizes and tools will be on display at NASCC: The Steel Conference, taking place in Atlanta, April 22-24. Attendees can visit booth #1231 to learn how Shuriken and the HSS Connections Hub can help accelerate project timelines and reduce costs.
