This process gives it a rougher surface finish and slightly rounded corners. Conforming to ASTM A36 standards, this material combines strength, ductility, and excellent weldability, making it a reliable and economical choice for a wide range of structural and fabrication projects.
As a small-sized profile, this 1" x 1/2" channel is well-suited for light-duty applications. It is commonly used for equipment guards, trim, light framing, mounting brackets for signs and fixtures, and as structural components in utility trailers and industrial carts where moderate strength is required.

For proper paint or powder coat adhesion, this scale should be removed by grinding, sandblasting, or pickling. For outdoor applications requiring maximum corrosion resistance, it can be hot-dip galvanized after fabrication. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
