Equal Angle Steel (Equal Leg Angle Bar)
L-shaped hot rolled steel with two identical leg widths, widely used for connecting brackets, frame bracing, fence frameworks and small truss components in general steel structures. Easy welding and cutting for combined assembly.
Applications
- Industrial Factory Steel Structure: I-beam as main column and roof girder; C channel as roof/wall purlin; angle steel as bracing for large-span workshop and warehouse main frame construction.
- Bridge & Municipal Infrastructure: High-strength I-beam for bridge main girders; U channel and unequal angle steel for bridge guardrail supports, abutment auxiliary bracing components.
- Prefabricated & Container Buildings: C purlin, U channel and T steel for prefab house wall frames, floor beams and container body load-bearing skeleton.
- Mechanical Equipment Base Frames: U channel, I beam and angle steel for heavy machine bases, hydraulic equipment supports, forklift and vehicle chassis structural parts.
- Outdoor Guardrail & Fencing Projects: Galvanized equal/unequal angle steel for highway guardrail brackets, farm fence frames, street light pole fixing supports.
- Architectural Auxiliary Components: T section steel for stair beams, ceiling keels; channel steel for underground trench supports, pipeline fixing brackets and embedded foundation parts.
Product Advantages (Customer Value)
- Optimize project steel consumption: Scientific section design reduces redundant material usage, lower total steel procurement cost for large steel structure projects.
- Shorten on-site construction cycle: Standard finished profiles can be directly spliced and bolted, reduce on-site cutting and welding workload, speed up project delivery.
- Improve structural safety stability: Uniform rolling internal texture and stable yield strength reduce hidden danger of deformation and fracture under long-term load.
- One-stop full-profile procurement: Supply all 7 types of structural steel in one order, simplify supplier management for engineering general contractors.
- High pass rate for project acceptance: Comply with international structural steel standards, complete MTC test reports to smoothly pass third-party engineering inspection and bidding filing.

FAQ
- Q: What is the difference between C channel and U channel steel? A: C channel is thin-wall cold-formed lightweight purlin mainly for roof and wall secondary purlin; U channel is thick hot rolled heavy-duty channel steel for main load-bearing support, bearing capacity is much higher.
- Q: Equal angle steel vs unequal angle steel, how to choose? A: Equal leg angle steel for symmetrical frame bracing and common connection; unequal leg angle steel for asymmetric stress points such as bridge side supports and eccentric load brackets.
- Q: Can structural section steel be galvanized? A: Yes, we provide whole piece hot-dip galvanizing treatment, greatly improving anti-rust performance for coastal, rainy and outdoor long-term exposed buildings.
- Q: What is the main usage of T section steel? A: It is mostly used as secondary small beams, ceiling keels and stair support beams, lighter weight and more economical than I beam for light load-bearing parts.
- Q: Can you punch holes and cut to non-standard lengths? A: Fully support custom length cutting, bolt hole punching, end flattening according to customers’ construction drawing requirements.
