Rolled angle section steel bars with equal sides
Steel Angle Bar
Mild steel angle bars are lengths of steel which are ‘L’ shaped. The ‘legs’ of these steel flat bars can either be equal or unequal in terms of how it is angled. Angle steel bars are used for a wide variety of applications and are great for reinforcing large and small buildings due to their strength. Most of these bars are treated with corrosion-resistant coatings or primers.
Some other common uses include:
- Support frames
- Trailers
- Fencing
- Shelving
- Railings
- Brackets
- Racks
Mild steel bars that have been angled can come in either equal angles or unequal angles, depending on your preference. Steel angle bars are available with equal or unequal angles in a wide variety of sizes, and you can buy steel bars like these via the Buy A Beam shop.
Equal Angle Bars
Equal angle steel beams possess a great deal of tensile strength, corrosion-resistance and eco-friendly qualities. These types of mild steel bars are known for being workable and high-quality, and are also incredibly resistant to warping. The only major difference between equal and unequal angle bars is that the lengths of the ‘L’ shape are identical on these types of steel beams.
When steel equal angle bars are used, they can either be drilled, bolted or welded to an existing structure or surface. These bars provide a sturdy base around the edges, meaning that the structure itself can withstand greater loads thanks to the added reinforcement of the steel bar.
