A36 Hot Rolled Steel Channel - C8 x 13.75 x 20'
This C8 x 13.75 structural steel channel is manufactured from A36 hot rolled steel, providing a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI. Conforming to ASTM A36, it offers excellent weldability and strength for frames, supports, and brackets. In stock and ready for pickup in Los Angeles.
- A36 Hot Rolled Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 36,000 PSI Minimum Yield Strength
- Excellent Formability and Weldability
Hot rolled A36 steel channel is a structural C-shape produced by passing heated steel through rollers, resulting in a rougher surface finish and slightly rounded corners. This process ensures compliance with ASTM A36 specifications, delivering a balance of strength, ductility, and exceptional weldability for general structural and fabrication purposes.
As a large-profile channel, the C8 x 13.75 provides substantial resistance to bending along its strong axis. This makes it ideal for heavy-duty applications such as main structural framing, equipment bases, vehicle chassis components, and industrial support systems requiring robust load-bearing capabilities.

Finish Options
This product comes standard with a hot rolled mill finish, characterized by a rough, blue-grey surface with a layer of mill scale. This scale should be removed before painting or coating for proper adhesion. For enhanced corrosion resistance, this channel can be galvanized or powder coated after fabrication. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
Structural channel is identified by its standard designation (e.g., C8 x 13.75), where the first number is the depth in inches and the second is the weight per foot. Key measurements are Depth (A), Flange Width (B), and Web Thickness (C).
Example: To order this channel, specify "A36 Channel, C8 x 13.75 x 20 ft".
