- A500B Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability for Fabrication
Hot rolled A500 Grade B square tube is produced from steel processed at high temperatures, resulting in a product with a distinctive dark, scaled surface finish and slightly rounded corners. This economical manufacturing process makes it a primary choice for structural applications where precise tolerances are secondary to strength. Its carbon steel composition ensures excellent weldability and good formability, simplifying fabrication into rigid, durable structures.
As a medium-sized profile, this 2" square tube is ideal for fabricating equipment frames, structural supports, trailer tongues, and protective roll cages. Also known as Hollow Structural Section (HSS), its dimensions provide an effective balance of strength and weight, making it a versatile choice for construction and industrial applications where durability is key.
