ASTM A500 Grade B Hot Rolled Square Tube is a structural grade carbon steel material ideal for construction and fabrication. Formed at elevated temperatures, it has a dark, scaled mill finish and slightly rounded corners. This process makes it an economical choice for applications where high strength is prioritized over dimensional precision and surface finish.
As a large-profile tube, this 5-inch section is ideal for applications requiring significant load-bearing capacity and rigidity. Common uses include primary structural columns, heavy equipment frames, industrial supports, and large-scale fabrication projects where strength is the primary design factor.
