Hot Rolled Steel Rectangular Tube - 1/2" x 1-1/2" x 0.065"
This 1-1/2" x 1/2" hot rolled steel rectangular tube, with a 0.065" wall, is a structural grade product manufactured to ASTM A500 Grade B. It provides excellent compression and torsional strength, making it ideal for trailer frames, structural supports, and industrial equipment. In stock Los Angeles.
- A500B Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
Produced via the hot rolling process, this A500 Grade B rectangular steel tube is a cost-effective structural material with excellent forming and welding characteristics. It meets the ASTM A500 standard for hollow structural sections (HSS), ensuring reliable strength and dimensional properties for load-bearing applications. The material's balanced strength, weldability, and value make it a staple for industrial and construction fabrication.
As a medium-sized profile, this 1-1/2" x 1/2" tube is versatile for equipment frames, support cross-members, trailer tongues, and protective barriers. It provides greater resistance to bending along its taller axis, offering a structural advantage over square tubing in specific applications where directional load is a factor.
