The 5/8″ × 6″ steel flat bar is manufactured from A36 hot‑rolled carbon steel, a common structural grade defined by ASTM A36/A36M standards. This flat bar features a uniform thickness of 5/8″ and a width of 6″, offering reliable strength and versatility for fabrication, structural support, and general industrial applications. A36 steel provides good weldability and machinability, making it suitable for construction, equipment frames, and a wide range of structural projects where moderate strength and cost‑efficiency are required.
Applications:
5/8″ × 6″ A36 steel flat bar is commonly used in:
• Structural framing and bracing
• Support brackets and mounting plates
• Machinery bases and shop fixtures
• Construction and infrastructure projects
• Reinforcement plates and gussets
• Fabrication, welding, and custom metalwork
Advantages:
• Good strength: A36 provides adequate structural performance for many load‑bearing applications
• Weldable: Suitable for standard welding processes (MIG, TIG, stick, flux‑core)
• Machinable: Can be drilled, cut, ground, or shaped as needed
• Cost‑effective: Economical carbon steel option for many fabrication jobs
• Versatile: Useful in structural, industrial, agricultural, and fabrication applications
Summary:
The 5/8″ × 6″ A36 hot‑rolled steel flat bar is a durable, weldable, and machinable structural component ideal for framing, supports, brackets, and general fabrication work. Its combination of strength, versatility, and cost‑effectiveness makes it a common choice for construction, industrial fabrication, and equipment assembly.

* All ‘value length’ and ‘value pack’ item measurements are subject to a “mill tolerance”. A product may be produced several thousandths of an inch, either over or under the stated thickness, and still be within “mill tolerance”. This does NOT apply to Cut To Size items. Those will be +.125″, -0.00″ tolerances.
