What is a Structural Steel Angle?
A steel angle is a type of structural steel beam, used for adding strength, support and stability to buildings. Structural angles commonly have an ‘L’ cross-section or shape, by joining together at a perpendicular, 90 degree angle. Similar to other structural steel products they are made through hot-rolling mild steel.
Steel L angles are commonly used for bed frames, box trailers, structures and shelving. Its unique design gives it great bending resistance, in any direction. Similar to other structural steel beams and supports; the larger it is, the more weight it is able to take.
What is an Equal Steel Angle?
Equal steel angles are steel angles with both ends equal in size and thickness.
What is an Unequal Steel Angle?
Unequal steel angles are the opposite. One end of the ‘L-shape’ is shorter, and one end is longer in this design.
Applications for Steel L Angles across industries:
L-beams are often used for framing, shelving, brackets, trims, and reinforcements, among other uses.
