This 5" x 3-1/2" x 3/8" Hot Rolled Steel Angle is a versatile structural shape conforming to ASTM A36 specifications. It offers a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, excellent weldability, and durability for heavy-duty applications like framing and bracing. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 36,000 PSI Yield Strength
- Excellent Weldability
A36 Hot Rolled Steel Angle is a low-carbon structural steel produced by forming at high temperatures, resulting in a scaled surface finish and slightly rounded corners. This process ensures compliance with ASTM A36 standards, delivering a reliable minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI. Its composition provides excellent ductility and toughness, making it easy to weld, cut, and machine for general fabrication purposes.
As a large structural shape, this 5" x 3-1/2" angle provides significant load-bearing capacity. It is ideal for heavy structural applications, building frames, industrial equipment supports, and cross-members in trailer and chassis manufacturing where maximum strength and rigidity are required.

Finish Options
This product comes standard with a hot rolled mill finish, characterized by a blue-gray, slightly rough surface scale. This scale must be removed before painting or coating. For corrosion protection, hot-dip galvanizing or primer and paint can be applied. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
Unequal leg angle is measured by its two legs (A and B) and its thickness (C). The longer leg is always stated first in the description.
Example: To order this angle, specify "Hot Rolled Angle, 5" by 3-1/2" by 3/8" thickness".
