Metal Angle, often referred to as steel angle iron, angle bar, L-bracket, or angle steel, is a type of structural steel with two legs forming a 90-degree angle for use in both structural applications and general fabrication. It is one of the most basic and widely used structural steel parts in construction and engineering.
Steel Angle is one of the most popular hot rolled, low carbon steel shapes used in manufacturing, fabrication, and repair projects. From trailers to truck beds, farm implements to construction equipment, steel angle has thousands of uses and applications. Its 90 degree angle shape adds strength and rigidity to any project for a lower price compared to other shapes and types of metal. It is easy to weld, cut, form and machine.
All kinds of steel angle, also known as L-shaped cross-sections. These are steel bars in the shape of an angle with equal or unequal sides. Angles are typically used as braces to reinforce structures from the outside by increasing overall stress tolerance, but may also be used in sets of two or four to form the main members of a building framework or "skeleton".
The angle can also be used as an end stop on grid hole and slot tables. Fine adjustment is possible when used in combination with knurled screws. The angles are fastened to grid hole tables using clamping pins and washers. They can also be clamped to machine slot tables by combining with eccentric clamp modules.
Grade A36 steel angles are one of the most popular hot rolled, low carbon steel shapes used in manufacturing, fabrication, and repair projects. Hot rolled angle steel's 90° angle shape adds strength and rigidity to any project for a lower price compared to other shapes and types of metal. In addition, galvanized angled steel is easy to weld, cut, form and machine.
