Hot Rolled Steel Angle - 6 Inch X 4 Inch X 1/2 Inch
A36 Hot Rolled Steel Angle - 6 Inch X 4 Inch X 1/2 Inch
This 6" x 4" x 1/2" hot rolled steel angle is a versatile structural shape conforming to ASTM A36 standards. It provides a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI, excellent weldability, and robust durability for heavy-duty applications, including building frames and equipment supports. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 36,000 PSI Yield Strength
- Excellent Weldability
Hot rolled A36 steel angle is produced by forming steel at high temperatures, resulting in a product with a scaled surface and slightly rounded corners. This process ensures compliance with ASTM A36, a standard for carbon structural steel. It offers a reliable combination of strength, ductility, and outstanding weldability, making it a cost-effective choice for general fabrication and structural projects.
As a large structural shape, the 6" x 4" leg dimensions provide significant load-bearing capacity and rigidity. It is ideal for heavy structural applications, building frames, industrial supports, and cross-members for trailers and heavy equipment where maximum strength and stiffness 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 should be removed before painting or coating for proper adhesion. For specific project requirements, finishes like galvanizing or powder coating may be available via special order. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
Angle is measured by its two legs (A and B) and its thickness (C). For this unequal leg angle, measure the length of each leg from the outer corner, along with the material thickness.
Example: To order this angle, specify "A36 Steel Angle, 6" Leg x 4" Leg x 1/2" Thickness x 20' Length".
