Product Description
Our 1/2" Round Bar is a heavy-duty, solid steel rod engineered for high-strength structural applications and custom fabrication. Manufactured to ASTM A36 standards, this carbon steel rod provides a reliable combination of strength and malleability. As the industry standard for structural steel, A36 offers superior weldability and machinability, making it the essential choice for welding shops, construction sites, and agricultural maintenance.
The 1/2-inch diameter provides significant rigidity for load-bearing supports and heavy-duty bracing, yet remains compatible with standard bending equipment for creating industrial hooks, anchors, and frames.
✅ Key Features & Benefits
-
Superior Weldability: Clean A36 chemistry ensures high-strength joints and excellent arc stability with MIG, TIG, or Stick welding.
-
Structural Reliability: Offers a minimum yield strength of 36,000 psi, making it ideal for safety-critical bracing and reinforcement.
-
Easy Machinability: This solid rod is easy to thread, drill, and turn, allowing for the creation of custom bolts, pins, and shafts.
-
Ready for Finishing: The hot-rolled surface is easy to prep and provides excellent adhesion for primers, industrial paints, and powder coatings.
-
Standardized Sizing: The 1/2" profile is a universal standard, compatible with a wide range of industrial hardware, hangers, and sleeves.
