Most square tube is going to be A500 or A513 HREW, which stands for Hot Rolled Electric (resistance) Welded
Either is perfectly acceptable, plenty strong for go karts, and easy to weld without any special preparations.
seamless and high alloy (such as 4130) tubes are often used for race frames (and other high performance applications) and such because the increased strength allows for a thinner wall, and thus a lighter structure, when every pound counts, but it's expensive, tougher to weld, and wholly unnecessary for any homebuilt kart.
