This 1/2" x 48" x 120" A36 Hot Rolled Steel Plate is a structural-grade carbon steel compliant with ASTM A36 standards. It offers a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, excellent formability, and superior weldability, making it ideal for structural base plates and general fabrication. In stock Los Angeles.

  • A36 Carbon Steel Construction
  • ASTM A36 Certified
  • 58,000-80,000 PSI Tensile Strength
  • Excellent Weldability & Formability
Overview|Specifications|Applications|Finish Options|How to Measure|Order Checklist

A36 hot rolled steel is a versatile low-carbon steel used for a wide range of structural applications. The hot rolling process results in a rougher, scaled surface finish and looser tolerances than cold rolled steel. Its chemical composition ensures superior weldability using common methods and predictable performance, making it an economical choice for projects where precise finishes are not primary.

The substantial 1/2-inch thickness classifies this as a heavy plate, ideal for applications requiring high rigidity and load-bearing capacity. Common uses include structural base plates for columns, heavy equipment mounting pads, wear plates for industrial machinery, and robust gussets for large trusses.

Specifications

  • Material: A36 Carbon Steel
  • Standards: ASTM A36
  • Strength/Tensile: 58,000-80,000 PSI
  • Dimensions: 1/2" Thickness x 48" Width x 120" Length
  • Finish: Mill Finish (Hot Rolled)
  • Certifications: MTR Available

Applications

  • Construction: Column base plates - provides a stable, load-distributing foundation for structural steel.
  • Industrial Equipment: Machinery frames and mounting pads - offers the strength needed to support heavy equipment and absorb vibration.
  • General Fabrication: Wear plates and repair patches - its thickness provides excellent durability and impact resistance.
  • Transportation: Trailer gussets and heavy frame components - excellent weldability allows for strong, durable assemblies.

Target Users

Fabricators, welders, construction contractors, and maintenance engineers rely on A36 plate for its predictable strength and workability in structural projects throughout the Los Angeles area.

Finish Options

This product comes standard with a mill finish, characterized by a dark, rougher surface scale from the hot rolling process. This scale can be removed by grinding or sandblasting before painting or coating for corrosion protection. For specific project requirements, other finishes may be available via special order. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.

How to Measure

Plate is measured by its Thickness, Width, and Length. Use a tape measure for width and length, and calipers for an accurate thickness measurement.

Example: To order this plate, specify "A36 Plate, 1/2 inch x 48 inches x 120 inches".

Order Checklist

  • Product name and required dimensions (1/2" x 48" x 120")
  • Material specification and quantity
  • Confirm grade (A36) meets requirements
  • Surface finish requirements (Mill Finish)
  • Certifications required (Mill Test Report)
