- A500 Grade B Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability and Formability
Hot Rolled A500 Grade B square tube is a carbon steel structural product with a minimum yield strength of 46,000 PSI. Formed at high temperatures, it has a dark, scaled surface finish and slightly rounded corners. This manufacturing process makes it a cost-effective choice for structural applications where precise tolerances are secondary to strength. Its excellent weldability makes it easy to fabricate into rigid, durable structures.
The 2" square profile is a medium-sized structural tube, ideal for fabricating equipment frames, trailer tongues, roll cages, and structural supports where a balance of strength, weight, and dimensional stability is critical. Its robust 0.188" wall thickness ensures rigidity for moderate load-bearing structures.
