A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar - 12" x 1/2" x 240"
This 12" x 1/2" A36 hot rolled steel flat bar is a cost-effective structural material with excellent weldability and formability. Conforming to ASTM A36 with 36,000 PSI minimum yield strength, it's a reliable choice for heavy fabrication, supports, and base plates. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 36,000 PSI Yield Strength
- Excellent Weldability and Formability
A36 hot rolled steel is formed at elevated temperatures, resulting in a scaly, blue-grey finish and slightly rounded edges. This process makes it more cost-effective than cold rolled steel for applications where precise tolerances and surface finish are not critical. It is a low-carbon steel that offers reliable strength and excellent weldability using all common methods.
The substantial 12-inch width and 1/2-inch thickness make this flat bar ideal for heavy-duty structural applications. Common uses include machinery base plates, heavy equipment mounting pads, large support brackets, and components for industrial dies where strength and stability are paramount.
