This 7" x 1" Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar is a structural A36 grade ideal for heavy-duty fabrication and construction. Conforming to ASTM A36, it offers excellent weldability and a minimum yield strength of 36,000 PSI for dependable performance in load-bearing applications. In stock Los Angeles.
- A36 Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 58,000-80,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
A36 hot rolled flat bar is produced by forming steel at elevated temperatures, resulting in a product with a distinctive scaly, blue-grey mill finish and slightly rounded edges. This process makes it cost-effective and easy to work with for structural purposes where precise tolerances are not critical. Its low carbon content ensures it meets ASTM A36 standards for weldability and strength.
As a large-format bar, this 7" x 1" size provides a substantial cross-section ideal for applications requiring high strength and a wide surface area. It is frequently specified for base plates under structural columns, heavy equipment frames and supports, and reinforcement sections in large-scale fabrication projects.
