- A500B Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability & Formability
Hot Rolled Steel Rectangular Tube is a structural grade product manufactured to ASTM A500 Grade B specifications. The hot rolling process delivers excellent forming and welding characteristics with high strength and durability. This material, often referred to as Hollow Structural Section (HSS), provides superior torsional strength and compression resistance compared to open profiles like angles or channels, making it a foundational material for fabrication projects.
As a medium-sized tube, this 3" x 1-1/2" profile is an excellent choice for trailer frames and cross-members, structural supports in buildings, heavy-duty equipment bases, and large gate frames. Its dimensions offer a balance of strength and weight for robust, load-bearing assemblies.
