Value Collection 58318 A36 Steel Flat Stock 24x4x3/32 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 58318 is a low carbon steel flat bar stock conforming to AISI A36 material specification. It measures 24 inches long, 4 inches wide, and 3/32 inch thick, with a finished weight of 2.88 pounds. A36 is a structural-grade mild steel widely used in fabrication, welding, and general metalworking applications. This flat stock ships in single-piece quantities and is suitable for cut-to-size work, brackets, straps, supports, and light structural components. Machinists, welders, and fabricators working in trade or industrial settings will find this a standard go-to material for layout and fitment work.

This flat stock is used in general fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and light manufacturing environments. It is well suited for HVAC curb fabrication, equipment supports, duct bracing, plumbing hangers, and electrical enclosure framing. The A36 grade welds cleanly with common MIG and stick processes and responds predictably to drilling, grinding, and cutting. It is sold as a single piece, making it practical for low-volume or one-off jobs where purchasing full bar lengths is not necessary.

Installation Notes

Cut, drill, and weld using standard tooling appropriate for mild steel. Always wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when cutting or grinding. Deburr all cut edges before fitment to avoid injury and to ensure flush contact with mating surfaces. Store flat to prevent warping, and keep dry to avoid surface oxidation prior to use or finishing.
