- A500 Grade B Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability & Formability
Hot rolled rectangular steel tubing is a structural product manufactured to the ASTM A500 Grade B specification. The hot rolling process results in a material with excellent forming characteristics and weldability, though with a scaled surface finish. Its combination of strength and cost-effectiveness makes it a foundational material for construction and industrial fabrication requiring robust, load-bearing performance.
As a large-profile tube, this 4" x 1-1/2" size provides significant resistance to bending and torsion, making it ideal for heavy structural applications like building frames, trailer beds, support columns, and industrial equipment bases where maximum strength is required.
