Value Collection 58328 A36 Steel Flat Stock 24x1.5x0.125 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 58328 is an AISI A36 low carbon steel flat bar cut to 24 inches long, 1.5 inches wide, and 0.125 inches thick. A36 is a structural-grade mild steel widely used in fabrication, repair work, and general metalworking applications. It machines, welds, and bends readily, making it a go-to raw material for HVAC brackets, equipment supports, strut reinforcements, and custom fabricated parts. Each piece ships as a single unit at 1.42 pounds. Tolerances are held to industry standards: length at plus 0.062 inches, width at plus 0.005 to minus 0.000 inches, and thickness and squareness at plus or minus 0.001 inches.

This flat stock is suited for light structural and fabrication tasks in commercial and residential trade work. HVAC technicians use A36 flat bar to fabricate equipment mounting tabs, vibration isolation supports, and custom brackets. Plumbers and pipefitters use it for pipe hanger reinforcement and support frame construction. Electricians and general contractors use it for panel supports and unistrut supplement work. The 24-inch length suits bench-cut fabrication workflows where stock is cut to final dimension on site.

Installation Notes

Cut to final length using a cold saw, angle grinder with a cutoff wheel, or horizontal band saw. Deburr all cut edges before installation to prevent injury and to ensure flush contact with mating surfaces. Follow applicable local building codes and OSHA standards when fabricating structural supports. Wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when cutting or drilling.
