A500 Grade B Hot Rolled Steel Square Tube - 1/2" x 0.065" x 240"
This 1/2" x 0.065" hot rolled square tube is manufactured to ASTM A500 Grade B specifications, providing a minimum yield strength of 46,000 PSI. Its excellent formability and weldability make it a versatile choice for structural applications, frames, and supports. In stock Los Angeles.
- A500 Grade B Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability and Formability
Hot rolled A500B square tube is a carbon steel structural material, also known as Hollow Structural Section (HSS). It is formed at high temperatures, resulting in a dark, scaled mill finish and slightly rounded corners. This cost-effective process produces tubing with a high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent weldability using common methods, and good overall formability for fabrication projects.
As a small-profile tube, this 1/2" size is perfectly suited for light-duty structural work where weight is a consideration. Common uses include building lightweight equipment frames, support brackets, decorative architectural elements, industrial furniture, and framework for gates and enclosures where high load-bearing capacity is not the primary requirement.
