| Chemical Composition (P / S) | P ≤ 0.04% / S ≤ 0.05% | Phosphorus and sulfur are impurity elements; lower values improve toughness and ductility |
| Chemical Composition (Si) | ≤ 0.40% (A36) / ≤ 0.05% (S235JR) | Silicon acts as a deoxidizer and improves strength |
| Tensile Strength | 400–550 MPa (A36 / S235JR) / 585–760 MPa (1045) | Per ASTM A36 and EN 10025-2; higher grades available for structural and mechanical applications |
| Yield Strength | ≥ 250 MPa (A36) / ≥ 235 MPa (S235JR) / ≥ 375 MPa (1045) | Minimum yield strength per respective standards; varies with thickness range |
| Elongation | ≥ 20% (A36, 200 mm gauge) / ≥ 26% (S235JR) | Indicates ductility; tested per ASTM E8 or EN ISO 6892-1 |
| Thickness Range | 3 mm – 100 mm | Common stock thicknesses: 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50 mm per EN 10058 / GB/T 702 |
| Width Range | 10 mm – 400 mm | Standard widths: 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 75, 100, 150, 200 mm; custom widths available |
| Length | 3,000 mm – 12,000 mm (standard) / Custom cut-to-length | Random mill lengths or fixed lengths; tolerance per EN 10058: +100 mm / 0 mm |
| Surface Finish | Hot Rolled (HR) / Cold Drawn (CD) / Pickled & Oiled (P&O) / Galvanized | HR: mill scale surface; CD: smooth, tight tolerance; P&O: scale-free; Galvanized: corrosion-resistant coating |
| Application | Structural fabrication, machinery frames, brackets, supports, conveyor systems, construction, shipbuilding | Widely used in manufacturing, civil engineering, and industrial equipment due to versatile dimensions and grades |
| Certification | Mill Test Certificate (MTC) per EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2; ISO 9001:2015; CE Marking | Third-party inspection available (SGS, BV, TÜV); heat and lot number traceability provided |
| Packaging | Bundled with steel strapping (max 2,000 kg per bundle); wooden dunnage; seaworthy export packing available | Bundles labeled with grade, heat number, dimensions, and weight; moisture-proof wrapping on request |
| MOQ | 1 Metric Ton (MT) | Mixed grades and sizes accepted per order; stock items available for immediate shipment |
Steel Flat Bar - ASTM Certified Mill Direct Supplier
Steel flat bar serves as one of the most versatile structural components in modern construction, manufacturing, and fabrication industries. As an ASTM certified mill direct supplier, we provide premium grade flat bars engineered to meet the most demanding project specifications. Our steel flat bars are manufactured under rigorous quality control protocols, ensuring dimensional accuracy, consistent mechanical properties, and reliable performance across a wide range of applications. From structural frameworks and machine bases to brackets, supports, and architectural elements, our flat bar stock finds extensive application in sectors including civil engineering, automotive manufacturing, shipbuilding, and industrial equipment fabrication. With mill-direct pricing and a comprehensive inventory spanning multiple grades, widths, and thicknesses, we deliver cost-effective solutions without compromising on material integrity. Whether you require standard carbon steel, high-strength low-alloy (HSLA), or stainless variants, our technical team is ready to match the ideal flat bar specification to your exact project requirements.
What is Steel Flat Bar?
A steel flat bar is a long, rectangular solid steel section characterized by a flat, uniform cross-section with defined width and thickness dimensions. Produced through hot rolling or cold drawing processes, flat bars differ from plates and sheets primarily in their narrower width-to-thickness ratio and suitability for direct structural or fabrication use. They serve critical roles as load-bearing members, mounting brackets, reinforcement strips, and frame components across industrial and commercial applications.

Steel Flat Bar Technical Specifications
Our steel flat bars are produced in conformance with ASTM A36, ASTM A572 Grade 50, and EN 10025 standards. Standard widths range from 12 mm to 500 mm, with thicknesses spanning 3 mm to 100 mm and lengths available up to 12 meters. Mechanical properties include a minimum yield strength of 250 MPa for A36 grade and 345 MPa for A572 Grade 50, with tensile strength reaching 400–550 MPa. Surface finishes include hot-rolled, cold-finished, and pickled-and-oiled options to suit downstream processing needs.
