- A36 Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 58,000-80,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
A36 hot rolled steel is a low-carbon steel formed at elevated temperatures, resulting in a scaly, blue-grey finish and slightly rounded edges. This process enhances its toughness and makes it easy to form and weld. It complies with ASTM A36 standards, ensuring a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, making it a standard choice for structural applications where strength is paramount.
As a medium-sized bar, this 2" width is highly versatile, commonly used for structural bracing, machine ways, wear strips, and base plates. Its dimensions provide a good balance of strength and workability for fabricators, welders, and maintenance teams in various industrial and construction settings.
