A36 Hot Rolled Steel Angle - 2-1/2" x 2" x 1/4"
This 2-1/2" x 2" x 1/4" hot rolled steel angle is a versatile structural shape conforming to ASTM A36 standards. It offers a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, combining reliable load-bearing capacity with excellent weldability for fabrication. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 36,000 PSI Yield Strength
- Excellent Weldability and Formability
A36 hot rolled steel angle, or angle iron, is a low-carbon structural steel produced by forming steel at high temperatures. This process results in a cost-effective material with a scaled surface finish and good mechanical properties. Conforming to ASTM A36, it provides a reliable combination of strength, ductility, and exceptional weldability, making it a foundational material for construction and industrial fabrication where precise tolerances are secondary to structural integrity.
As a medium-sized profile, this 2-1/2" x 2" angle is highly effective for structural framing members, equipment bases, shelving uprights, and support brackets. Its dimensions provide substantial rigidity and load-bearing capacity for building frames, heavy-duty racks, and machinery supports, while remaining easy to cut, drill, and weld with standard equipment.
Specifications
- Material: A36 Carbon Steel

Applications
- Construction: Structural framing, cross-bracing, and gusset plates - excellent strength and weldability for building frames.
- Equipment Manufacturing: Machinery bases and support frames - provides a rigid, durable foundation for heavy equipment.
- Industrial Racking: Uprights and cross-beams for heavy-duty shelving systems - reliable load-bearing capacity for storage.
- General Fabrication: Brackets, supports, and corner guards - versatile and easy to fabricate for custom projects.
Target Users
Fabricators, construction contractors, engineers, and industrial maintenance teams rely on A36 angle for structural integrity and ease of use in projects throughout the Los Angeles area.
Finish Options
This product comes standard in a hot rolled condition, which includes a characteristic blue-gray mill scale on the surface. For proper adhesion of paint or other coatings, this scale must be removed via grinding or sandblasting. For enhanced corrosion resistance, galvanizing services may be available via special order. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
Unequal leg angle is measured by its two leg lengths (Leg A and Leg B) and its material thickness. Measurements are taken from the outer corner to the end of each leg.
Example: To order this angle, specify "Hot Rolled Angle, 2-1/2 inch by 2 inch by 1/4 inch thick".
