Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar - 1-1/2 Inch X 3/8 Inch
This 1-1/2" x 3/8" hot rolled flat bar is a versatile A36 structural steel ideal for fabrication and repair. It meets ASTM A36 standards with a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, offering excellent weldability for strong, reliable assemblies. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 36,000 PSI Minimum Yield Strength
- Excellent Weldability
Hot rolled A36 steel is a low-carbon steel formed at high temperatures, resulting in a scaly, blue-grey mill finish and slightly rounded edges. This process makes it cost-effective and malleable. Conforming to ASTM A36, it provides reliable structural performance with excellent weldability using common methods. It's easily drilled, punched, and formed, making it a go-to for general purpose applications.
The 1-1/2" width classifies this as a medium-sized bar, perfect for projects requiring more substance than smaller straps. Common uses include structural bracing, support brackets for machinery, equipment frame components, and general fabrication where a balance of strength and workability is key.
