DESCRIPTION

A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar is a low-carbon structural steel produced to ASTM A36 specifications for general construction, fabrication, and industrial use. The 3/8″ x 8″ flat bar features a solid rectangular profile with a hot rolled finish, providing a balance of strength, weldability, and machinability. The hot rolling process gives the material a mill scale surface and slightly rough finish, while maintaining excellent structural performance for heavy-duty applications.

Applications:
A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar is commonly used in structural, mechanical, and fabrication applications, including:
• Structural framing and support components
• Base plates, brackets, and reinforcement plates
• Welding and metal fabrication projects
• Machinery and equipment repair or assembly
• Industrial construction and general steelwork
• Custom manufacturing and structural modifications

Advantages:
• Strong and durable: Provides reliable performance for structural and load-bearing applications
• Excellent weldability: Easily welded using standard welding processes
• Good machinability: Can be drilled, cut, and formed with common tools
• Cost-effective: Widely available and economical structural steel option
• Versatile use: Suitable for a wide range of industrial and construction applications

Summary:
The 3/8″ x 8″ A36 Hot Rolled Steel Flat Bar is a heavy-duty structural steel product designed for strength, versatility, and reliability in fabrication and construction. Its solid profile and weldable properties make it an excellent choice for structural support, repairs, and industrial metalworking projects.

* Prices are subject to change without notice due to fluctuations in the metals market. | All “Value Length” and “Value Pack” item measurements are subject to standard mill tolerances. | Products may be manufactured several thousandths of an inch over or under the stated dimensions and still be within acceptable mill tolerances. All bar, tube, structural, pipe, sheet, plate, and similar products sold on our website are custom cut to the lengths and sizes selected by the customer at the time of purchase. These are not stocked as pre-cut items. Because each order is cut specifically to customer specifications, all cut materials are considered custom products and are not eligible for cancellation, return, or exchange once production has begun. Our standard cutting tolerances are:

  • Length: +0.125″ / -0.062″
  • During the cutting process, the saw blade removes approximately 1/16″ (kerf) of material. This is a normal part of the manufacturing process and is already included within the stated cutting tolerances.
