- A500B Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
A500 Grade B Hot Rolled Steel Square Tube is formed from low-carbon steel processed at high temperatures, resulting in a scaled surface finish. This material conforms to ASTM A500, the standard for structural tubing, guaranteeing a minimum yield strength of 46,000 PSI. Its composition provides excellent formability and weldability, making it a cost-effective choice for applications where high strength is required.
The 3-inch square profile is a versatile medium-sized section, ideal for constructing durable handrails, equipment frames, roll cages, and support columns. Its substantial size provides rigidity and load-bearing capacity for general fabrication, trailer frames, and other structural assemblies where strength outweighs the need for a cosmetic finish.
