Hot Rolled Steel Rectangular Tube - 6" x 2" x 0.120"
This 6" x 2" x 0.120" rectangular tube is a structural grade, hot rolled steel product meeting ASTM A500 Grade B standards. It combines a 46,000 PSI yield strength with excellent formability and weldability, making it a foundational material for robust structural applications. In stock Los Angeles.
- A500B Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
Hot rolled rectangular steel tubing is a structural grade product manufactured to the ASTM A500 Grade B specification. The hot rolling process results in a material with excellent forming and welding characteristics, though with a rougher, scaled surface. Its combination of strength, cost-effectiveness, and 58,000 PSI tensile strength makes it a key material for load-bearing applications.
As a large-profile tube, this 6" x 2" size provides exceptional resistance to bending and torsional stress. It is commonly used for heavy structural components like building frames, trailer beds, support columns for machinery, and industrial racking systems requiring high load capacity.

Applications
- Construction: Main structural supports, building frames, and trusses - high strength-to-weight ratio for large spans.
- Trailers & Automotive: Heavy-duty trailer frames, tongues, and cross-members - resists bending and torsional stress under heavy loads.
- Industrial Machinery: Machine bases, support frames, and conveyor systems - excellent load-bearing capacity for heavy equipment.
- Racking & Storage: Heavy-duty warehouse racking systems and shelving supports - superior resistance to compression.
Target Users
Structural engineers, fabricators, and trailer manufacturers rely on A500B rectangular tube for its structural integrity and weldability in projects throughout the Los Angeles area.
Finish Options
This product comes standard with a hot rolled finish, characterized by a dark, rough mill scale. This scale must be removed by grinding, sandblasting, or pickling before painting or powder coating for proper adhesion. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
Rectangular tube is measured by its outer Width (A), its outer Height (B), and its uniform Wall Thickness (C). Use a tape measure for width/height and calipers for wall thickness.
Example: To order this tube, specify "Hot Rolled Rectangular Tube, 6 inch by 2 inch by 0.120 inch wall".
