This 3" x 0.25" wall A500B Steel Square Tube is a versatile structural material offering a high strength-to-weight ratio. Conforming to ASTM A500, it provides 46,000 PSI minimum yield strength and excellent weldability, making it ideal for frames, supports, and general fabrication. In stock Los Angeles.
- A500 Grade B Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability & Formability
Hot rolled from low-carbon steel, A500 Grade B square tubing is a cost-effective structural section also known as HSS (Hollow Structural Section). The hot rolling process results in a scaly surface finish and slightly rounded corners. Its chemical composition ensures robust durability and excellent weldability for easy fabrication, compliant with ASTM A500 standards for structural applications.
As a medium-sized profile, this 3-inch tube is perfectly suited for equipment frames, roll cages, trailer manufacturing, and structural supports where rigidity and load-bearing capacity are critical. Its substantial 1/4" wall thickness provides excellent resistance to bending and torsional forces in demanding assemblies.
