Value Collection 58341 A36 Steel Flat Stock 24x3/4x3/16 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 58341 is a low carbon steel flat bar cut to 24 inches in length, 3/4 inch wide, and 3/16 inch thick, conforming to AISI material specification A36. A36 is a mild, weldable structural steel widely used in fabrication, repair, and general metalworking applications. This flat stock ships as a single piece and weighs 1.08 pounds. Dimensional tolerances are held tight from the mill: length is held to a positive 0.062 inch tolerance, width to a plus 0.005 and minus 0.000 inch tolerance, and both thickness and squareness to plus or minus 0.001 inch. These tolerances make the bar suitable for applications where fit and finish matter.

A36 low carbon flat stock is a staple material in HVAC equipment fabrication, mechanical room support framing, electrical panel backing, and general trade work where a readily weldable, machinable mild steel bar is needed. It is commonly used by HVAC technicians, pipefitters, electricians, and general contractors for brackets, straps, support rails, spacers, and custom fabricated hardware. The single-piece packaging makes it practical for job-specific cuts without committing to longer bar stock.

Installation Notes

Cut, drill, and weld using standard mild steel procedures and tooling appropriate for A36 low carbon steel. Always wear appropriate PPE including eye protection and gloves when cutting or grinding. Deburr all cut edges before handling or final installation. Follow applicable local codes and trade standards when incorporating steel stock into structural or load-bearing assemblies.
