218 - DIMENSION��?�� X 2-��?�� X 4-��?��

Our 218 Industrial Utility Block is a versatile hardware component designed for a wide range of MRO and fabrication tasks. Engineered for durability, it functions effectively as a spacer, support block, or mounting base in machinery, structural assemblies, and custom jigs. Its solid construction ensures reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.

  • General Purpose Low-Carbon Steel
  • MRO, Fabrication, Spacing & Shimming
  • Machinable, Drillable, and Weldable
  • In-Stock for Pickup in Los Angeles
Overview | Specifications | Applications | Finish Options | How to Measure | Order Checklist

The 218 Utility Block is manufactured from a general-purpose, low-carbon steel, providing a balance of strength and excellent formability. This material composition makes it easy to drill, machine, or weld to meet specific project requirements. It's an essential, non-graded component for applications where a certified high-strength material is not required but reliability and workability are paramount. The block's simple geometry makes it a fundamental building block for custom solutions in any workshop or industrial setting in Los Angeles.

Primarily used in maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO), these utility blocks are ideal for leveling machinery, creating custom fixtures, or acting as sacrificial parts in welding setups. Fabricators utilize them as spacers in assemblies, gussets for light-duty frames, or bases for mounting small components. Their versatility extends to construction and automotive repair, where they can be adapted for alignment tasks or as custom brackets, making them a staple for commercial hardware needs.

Specifications

  • Material: Low-Carbon Steel
  • Standards: General Purpose / Non-Rated
  • Strength/Tensile: Not rated for primary structural load-bearing applications
  • Dimensions: As specified by product name. Custom cuts available.
  • Finish: Mill Finish (Uncoated)
  • Certifications: Material Certifications available upon request

Applications

  • Maintenance & Repair (MRO): Leveling industrial equipment, creating shims, and support blocks for machinery.

  • Prototyping & R&D: Building custom fixtures, test rigs, and proof-of-concept models.
  • General Construction: Creating custom brackets, packing material, and alignment blocks.

Target Users

This product is ideal for maintenance technicians, welders, fabricators, and engineers in the Los Angeles area who require a versatile and machinable steel block for custom applications and general repair work.

Finish Options

This product is typically supplied with a standard mill finish. It is uncoated and ready for painting, powder coating, or galvanizing to meet specific corrosion resistance or aesthetic requirements. The surface is suitable for direct-to-metal (DTM) primers and industrial paints.
