A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar - 2-1/2" x 1" x 20'
This 2-1/2" x 1" A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar is a versatile structural material conforming to ASTM A36 standards. It offers a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, excellent weldability, and is ideal for frames, supports, and general fabrication projects. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 36,000 PSI Minimum Yield Strength
- Excellent Weldability
A36 hot rolled steel is a low-carbon structural steel with excellent formability and weldability. Produced by forming the steel at elevated temperatures, this process results in a material with slightly rounded edges and a characteristic scaly surface. Conforming to ASTM A36, it provides a reliable minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, making it a go-to choice for applications where strength is critical.
As a medium-sized bar, this 2-1/2" x 1" flat is perfectly suited for structural bracing in building frames, durable wear strips on industrial equipment, and robust machine ways. Its substantial thickness provides excellent rigidity and load-bearing capacity for demanding support roles and custom fabrication projects where strength and weldability are key requirements.

Finish Options
This product comes standard with a hot rolled (mill) finish, characterized by a blue-grey, scaly surface and slightly rounded edges. This scale must be removed by grinding, sandblasting, or pickling before painting or coating. Left unfinished, it will rust. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
Flat bar is measured by its Width (the larger dimension of the flat side) and its Thickness (the smaller dimension). Use calipers for an accurate measurement of these two dimensions.
Example: To order this flat bar, specify "A36 Hot Rolled Flat Bar, 2-1/2 Inch by 1 Inch".
