- 304 Stainless Steel Construction
- ASTM A276 Certified
- 73,200 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance
Type 304 is the most widely used austenitic stainless steel, also known as "18-8" for its 18% chromium and 8% nickel composition. This alloy offers exceptional resistance to atmospheric corrosion and chemical exposures. It is non-magnetic, highly ductile, and conforms to ASTM A276 standards. Its excellent weldability makes it a versatile choice for a wide range of fabricated assemblies.
As a medium-sized angle, the 2-1/2" legs provide substantial structural support for equipment bases, shelving units, building frames, and industrial supports. Its 90-degree profile is perfect for corner reinforcement and creating strong, straight edges in fabricated projects where both load-bearing capacity and longevity are critical.

For specific aesthetic requirements, finishes such as a #4 brushed polish can be applied via special order. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
An angle is measured by its two legs (A & B) and its thickness (C). Since this is an equal leg angle, both legs are the same dimension.
Example: To order this angle, specify "304 Stainless Angle, 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" x 3/8" thickness".
