National Mfg N180-067 Galvanized Flat Bar 1-1/4x72 in

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N180-067 is a solid galvanized flat bar measuring 1-1/4 inches wide by 72 inches long, designed for use in reinforcement, base plate, and structural support applications. The hot-dip or mill galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for construction and industrial environments. The bar can be drilled for fastener installation but is not recommended for welding, as heat from welding degrades the galvanized coating and can release harmful zinc fumes. Licensed contractors and construction tradespeople working on structural or industrial support assemblies are the primary installers of this product.

This flat bar is intended for construction and industrial applications where a corrosion-resistant steel bar stock is needed for reinforcement or base plate support work. It is sold in a package quantity of two bars, making it suitable for projects requiring paired or mirrored support elements. The galvanized finish makes it appropriate for both interior and exterior applications where moisture exposure is a concern. It is not rated for use as a welded structural member due to the galvanization process applied to its surface.

Key Features

• Solid galvanized steel construction provides corrosion resistance for construction and industrial use
• Dimensions of 1-1/4 inches wide by 72 inches long offer versatility for reinforcement and support tasks
• Can be drilled for through-bolt or screw fastener installations
• Not recommended for welding due to galvanized coating — zinc fumes and coating degradation are primary concerns
• Sold as a package of 2 bars per unit

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose solid galvanized flat bar for reinforcement, base plate, and structural support use in construction and industrial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by carpenters, ironworkers, or general construction tradespeople. Always wear appropriate PPE when drilling steel bar stock. Do not weld this bar — the galvanized coating releases toxic zinc oxide fumes when exposed to welding heat, and the coating integrity will be compromised. Follow applicable local building codes and structural design requirements when using this bar in load-bearing or support applications.
