Hot Rolled Rounds

Hot Rolled Rounds

Hot Rolled Rounds are used for general purpose applications. This steel is a low carbon grade, having good over-all mechanical properties. It is easy to fabricate by the usual structural methods, such as hot forming and welding.

  • A36 (UNS K02600)
  • Low-carbon steel
  • Hot-rolled, mill finish
  • Excellent weldability

Overview

Hot Rolled Steel Rounds are a fundamental and versatile product for countless industrial, manufacturing, and construction applications in Los Angeles and beyond. As a leading metal supply in Los Angeles, we provide high-quality low carbon steel rounds that offer excellent mechanical properties and superior workability. This product is created by passing heated steel billets through rollers, resulting in a scaled, slightly rough surface finish that is ideal for general-purpose use.

From a technical overview, hot rolled rounds are known for their ease of fabrication. They can be easily welded, cut, drilled, and formed using standard shop equipment, making them a go-to choice for fabricators and manufacturers. The low carbon content ensures good ductility and toughness, balancing strength with formability. This makes them suitable for a wide range of structural and non-structural applications where high precision is not the primary concern.

Applications for hot rolled rounds are extensive across Southern California's industrial landscape. They are commonly used in the fabrication of frames, brackets, shafts, and supports in construction projects. In manufacturing, they serve as raw material for machined parts, agricultural implements, and transportation equipment. For ornamental iron work, fencing, and artwork, hot rolled rounds provide a sturdy and cost-effective base material. Whether you're working on a large-scale construction project with I-beams and decking or a custom fabrication job requiring square tubing and diamond plate, hot rolled rounds are an essential component.

The primary advantages of choosing our hot rolled rounds include consistent quality, readily available inventory, and competitive pricing. As reliable sheet metal distributors in LA, we ensure our products meet industry standards, providing a reliable material that is easy to work with for professionals in welding shops, construction sites, and manufacturing plants. For all your needs, from galvanized steel roofing projects to structural supports with C channel and pipe, our hot rolled rounds are a fundamental building block.

How to Measure

?

Specify by: Diameter (in inches) and Length (in feet or inches). Tolerances: Diameter tolerance is typically +/- 0.005" to +/- 0.010" depending on size. For custom cuts, specify exact length required. When ordering, confirm required straightness and surface condition for your application.

Order Checklist

  • Diameter (?) and required length (e.g., 1" x 20')
  • Grade (e.g., A36) and quantity (pieces, feet, or pounds)
  • Cutting instructions (standard mill lengths or custom cuts with tolerance)
  • Surface finish requirements (as-rolled, descaled, cleaned)
  • Any certifications (Mill Test Report - MTR) required
  • Special handling, packaging, or delivery requirements
