Equal and Unequal Steel Angles — What’s the Difference?
Equal Angles
Both legs of the “L” are the same size. It’s your best choice for clean, balanced support across frames, brackets, and shelves.
Unequal Angles
One leg is longer than the other. This gives you more flexibility — perfect for corners, offset designs, or uneven loads. Our team supplies unequal angle sizes cut to your exact needs.

What is a Steel Angle?
A steel angle is a structural section shaped like an “L”, formed by bending mild steel at a 90-degree angle. This shape gives it excellent load resistance in both vertical and horizontal applications.
Its strength-to-weight ratio makes it ideal for:
- Brackets and support frames
- Structural reinforcements
- Trim and edge protection
- Heavy-duty shelving
