A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar - 4" x 1/4" x 240"
This 4" x 1/4" hot rolled flat bar is an A36 structural steel with excellent weldability and formability. Meeting ASTM A36 standards with a 36,000 PSI minimum yield strength, it's a versatile choice for fabrication, construction, and repair projects. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 58,000-80,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability and Formability
A36 hot rolled steel is a low-carbon structural 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 work with. Conforming to ASTM A36, it provides a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, ensuring reliable performance in demanding structural roles.
As a large-format flat bar, this 4-inch wide stock is ideal for manufacturing base plates for columns, heavy equipment mounting brackets, structural braces, and die components where maximum stability and load distribution are required in fabrication and construction.
