2″ x 6″ x .250″wall Steel Rectangular Tube A500

A500 steel rectangular tubing is a structural-grade carbon steel product manufactured to ASTM A500 specifications for maximum strength, durability, and consistent performance. The 2″ x 6″ x 3 gauge (.250″) steel rectangular tube features an ultra heavy-wall hollow structural section (HSS) designed for extreme load-bearing and high-stress structural applications. Its wide rectangular profile provides exceptional rigidity, stability, and resistance to bending or deformation under heavy loads. This material has a raw, non-galvanized mill finish and may exhibit a dark surface with mill scale, typical of hot-rolled steel.

Applications:
A500 steel rectangular tubing is commonly used in extreme heavy-duty structural and fabrication applications, including:
• Heavy structural frames and industrial support systems
• Equipment bases and high-load machinery structures
• Trailer frames, truck beds, and transport equipment
• Construction and infrastructure reinforcement projects
• Safety barriers, bracing systems, and support structures
• Custom fabrication requiring maximum strength and rigidity

Advantages:
• Maximum strength: .250″ wall thickness provides exceptional load capacity
• Wide profile: 2″ x 6″ section offers superior stability and load distribution
• Weldable: Suitable for MIG, TIG, and stick welding
• Machinable: Can be cut, drilled, and fabricated with proper equipment
• Consistent dimensions: Uniform shape for precise structural applications
• Extreme durability: Designed for the most demanding industrial environments

Summary:
The 2″ x 6″ x 3 gauge (.250″) A500 steel rectangular tube is an ultra heavy-duty structural material built for maximum strength and performance. Its thick wall construction, wide profile, and reliable weldability make it ideal for the most demanding fabrication, construction, and industrial applications.
