Products Description
A36 steel angle-also known as angle iron, angle steel, or steel angle bar-is a hot-rolled, low-carbon steel with an L-shaped cross-section. It offers excellent weldability and is highly suitable for machining, drilling, punching, tapping, and grinding.
It has a yield strength of approximately 250 MPa, a tensile strength ranging from 400 to 550 MPa, and an elongation of about 20–23%, ensuring good toughness and stability under structural loads and vibrating conditions.
The steel angle features two perpendicular flat surfaces at 90˚, providing strength, rigidity, and excellent resistance to bending in all directions. Typical thickness ranges from 3 to 20 mm, with leg lengths varying from 20×20 mm to 200×200 mm.
A36 steel angles have a wide range of applications. They are used in trailers, truck beds, shelving, structural supports, agricultural equipment, and construction tools, making them an indispensable and versatile structural material in both industrial and construction settings.
