- A36 Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 58,000-80,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
A36 hot rolled steel angle is a low-carbon structural steel produced by forming steel at high temperatures. This process results in a material with a scaled surface finish and slightly rounded corners. It meets ASTM A36 standards, ensuring a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, good ductility, and outstanding weldability using all common methods without the need for preheating.
As a large-class angle, this 4" x 3" size provides significant structural integrity for demanding load-bearing jobs. It is ideal for heavy structural framing in commercial buildings, robust industrial supports for machinery and conveyors, and main frame components for heavy-duty trailers and equipment bases.

Finish Options
This product comes standard with a hot rolled mill finish, characterized by a blue-gray, slightly scaled surface. This scale must be removed by grinding or sandblasting before painting or coating. For corrosion resistance in outdoor applications, galvanizing is recommended. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
For unequal leg angle, measure the outside length of Leg A (the longer leg), Leg B (the shorter leg), and the material Thickness.
Example: To order this angle, specify "4 inch by 3 inch by 5/16 inch steel angle".
