- A36 Carbon Steel Construction
- ASTM A36 Certified
- 36,000 PSI Yield Strength
- Excellent Weldability & Formability
A36 hot rolled steel square bar is produced by rolling steel at high temperatures, resulting in a dark, scaled surface and slightly rounded corners. This cost-effective process makes it a foundational material for construction and fabrication. It complies with ASTM A36 standards and is valued for its strength, ductility, and exceptional weldability, making it easy to cut, drill, and form for various structural applications.
As a medium-sized profile, the 1-1/2" square bar is robust enough for significant load-bearing applications. It is commonly used for machinery stands, trailer frames, support columns, heavy-duty shelving, and gate construction where strength and durability are primary requirements.
