- A36 Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 58,000-80,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
A36 Hot Rolled Steel Angle is a low-carbon structural steel with a combination of strength, ductility, and excellent weldability. Produced by forming steel at high temperatures, it has a characteristic scaled, dark grey finish and slightly rounded corners. Conforming to ASTM A36, it's a cost-effective and dependable material for general construction and industrial fabrication where precise dimensional tolerances are not the primary concern.
As a large structural angle, this 5" x 3" x 1/2" size offers significant rigidity and load-bearing capability. It is specifically suited for applications requiring high strength, such as heavy building frames, industrial equipment bases, trailer frames, and large-scale support bracing where durability and structural integrity are essential.

Finish Options
This product comes standard with a hot rolled mill finish, which includes a layer of blue-gray mill scale. For painting, powder coating, or galvanizing, this scale must be removed by grinding, sandblasting, or chemical pickling to ensure proper adhesion. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
Angle is measured by its two legs (A and B) and its thickness (T). For this unequal leg angle, it's critical to specify both leg dimensions.
Example: To order this angle, specify "A36 Steel Angle, 5 inch by 3 inch by 1/2 inch thick".
