Value Collection 58380 A36 Low Carbon Steel Flat Stock

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 58380 is a low carbon steel flat stock bar conforming to AISI material specification A36. Measuring 24 inches in length, 3.5 inches wide, and 0.3125 inches thick, this flat bar is a standard structural and fabrication material used across metalworking, welding, and general industrial trades. The A36 designation indicates a mild, low carbon steel with good weldability and machinability. At 8.37 pounds per piece, it suits both bench fabrication work and light structural applications. Machinists, welders, ironworkers, and maintenance technicians regularly stock this profile for brackets, supports, frames, and custom mechanical components.

This flat stock is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial fabrication environments. It is commonly used to fabricate support brackets, mounting plates, straps, frame members, and structural reinforcements in HVAC equipment pads, plumbing support structures, and general mechanical installations. The 24-inch length is a practical cut for workbench fabrication without further saw reduction. Trades that work with structural steel, light fabrication, or custom metal components will find this profile useful as raw stock for both new construction and repair applications.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose A36 low carbon steel flat bar for use in structural fabrication, equipment support, and mechanical assembly applications where AISI A36 mild steel stock is specified.

Installation Notes

This flat stock is raw material intended for cutting, drilling, welding, or bending by qualified tradespeople or fabricators. Always de-energize and lock out any equipment before installing fabricated components into live mechanical or electrical systems. Use appropriate personal protective equipment when cutting or grinding steel, and follow applicable OSHA and shop safety standards. Welding of A36 steel should follow established AWS procedures appropriate to the joint design and service conditions.
