- A36 Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 58,000-80,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability and Formability
A36 hot rolled (HR) flat bar is a low-carbon steel formed at elevated temperatures, resulting in a product with a distinctive scaly, blue-grey finish and slightly rounded edges. This cost-effective process produces a material compliant with ASTM A36, ensuring reliable structural performance. Its composition offers exceptional weldability with common methods like MIG and stick welding, and it is easily drilled, punched, and formed.
As a large-format bar, this 6-inch wide profile is ideal for applications requiring significant surface area and strength. It serves as a stable foundation for machinery base plates, acts as a primary component in heavy equipment frames, and is used for robust structural support braces where load distribution is critical.
