- Excellent Weldability
Hot rolled square steel bar is a cost-effective, general-purpose steel product produced by rolling steel at high temperatures. This process results in a characteristic dark, scaled finish and slightly rounded corners. A36 is the most common grade, valued for its structural integrity, excellent weldability, and good overall mechanical properties. It's a foundational material for construction and fabrication.
The versatile 1/2" square profile is well-suited for a wide range of medium-duty applications, including machinery frames, trailer components, heavy-duty shelving, support braces, and gate construction where a balance of strength and manageable weight is required.

Finish Options

For corrosion resistance, the surface must be cleaned of scale via grinding, wire brushing, or sandblasting before applying finishes like paint, powder coating, or galvanizing. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
