A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar - 6" x 3/16" x 240"
This 6" x 3/16" hot rolled flat bar is a structural A36 steel with excellent formability and weldability. Conforming to ASTM A36, it provides a minimum 36,000 PSI yield strength, making it a reliable choice for structural framing, base plates, and heavy equipment. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 36,000 PSI Minimum Yield Strength
- Excellent Weldability & Formability
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 makes it cost-effective and easy to work with. It meets ASTM A36 specifications, ensuring reliable structural performance with excellent weldability using common methods like MIG and stick welding, without needing pre-heating.
As a large-format flat bar, this 6-inch wide profile provides substantial surface area and strength. It is ideal for fabricating heavy-duty base plates for machinery, structural braces and gussets in building frames, trailer cross-members, and other applications where load-bearing capability is critical.
