This 4" x 1/2" A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar is a structural grade steel with excellent weldability and formability. Conforming to ASTM A36, it provides 36,000 PSI minimum yield strength, ideal for fabrication, structural supports, and general repairs. In stock Los Angeles.
- 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 high temperatures, resulting in a scaly, blue-grey mill finish and slightly rounded edges. This process makes it cost-effective and easy to fabricate. Conforming to ASTM A36, it ensures a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, making it a reliable choice for applications where strength and weldability are primary requirements.
As a large-format bar, this 4" width provides a stable foundation for base plates, heavy structural components, equipment mounting, and trailer frames. Its substantial cross-section is ideal for applications requiring high strength and resistance to bending under load in construction and industrial fabrication.
