Description
Equal Angle Bar
Base Material
-
Substrate: Carbon Steel and Alloy Steel
-
Shape: L-shaped cross-section with equal legs (both sides of the angle have the same length)
Properties:
-
Strength: Equal-angle bars are highly durable and provide excellent load-bearing capacity, ideal for structural reinforcement.
-
Versatility: They are available in a variety of sizes and thicknesses, offering flexibility for use in different construction and industrial applications.
-
Surface Finish: Typically has a rough mill finish, but may be coated or treated for added corrosion resistance.
Manufacturing Process
-
Heating: Steel billets are heated to a high temperature to make them malleable.
-
Rolling: The billets are passed through rollers to form the equal angle shape with precise dimensions.
-
Cooling: After the rolling process, the angle bars are cooled to room temperature.
-
Cutting: The bars are cut into the required lengths according to customer specifications.
-
Finishing: The final product may undergo additional processes such as grinding, coating, or galvanizing, depending on application requirements.
Common Grades of Equal Angle Bar
Material | Features | Typical Use |
---|---|---|
Mild Steel | Cost-effective, easy to weld and fabricate | Structural reinforcement, building frameworks |
Alloy Steel | High strength and wear resistance | Heavy-duty industrial applications, machinery frameworks |
