A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar - 8" x 5/8"
This 8" x 5/8" A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar is a structural carbon steel product meeting ASTM A36 standards. It offers a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI and excellent weldability, making it a reliable choice for heavy fabrication and support applications. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 58,000-80,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
Hot rolled A36 steel flat bar is produced by forming steel at elevated temperatures, resulting in a product with a distinctive scaly, blue-grey finish. This process makes it more cost-effective and formable than cold rolled steel. Conforming to ASTM A36, it provides a reliable minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, making it a foundational material for general structural and fabrication projects.
As a large section flat bar, the 8" x 5/8" size is exceptionally suited for applications requiring significant load-bearing capacity. Common uses include structural base plates for columns, heavy equipment mounting pads, die components, and reinforcement sections in large-scale industrial repairs and fabrications.
