Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Material Grade: ASTM A36 – ensures consistent mechanical properties and compliance with international standards.
- Manufacturing Process: Hot rolled – provides a smooth surface, precise dimensions, and improved ductility.
- Cross-Section: L-shaped (equal or unequal legs) – offers high structural stability for guardrail mounting.
- Dimensional Range: Leg lengths from 20 mm to 200 mm, thickness from 3 mm to 20 mm, and lengths up to 12 meters (customizable).
- Surface Options: Black (mill finish), hot-dip galvanized, or painted (e.g., powder coating) – corrosion resistance tailored to local environments.
- Weldability: Excellent – suitable for field welding and fabrication without preheating for most thicknesses.
- Load-Bearing Capacity: High tensile strength (400–550 MPa) and yield strength (≥250 MPa) ensure long-term performance under traffic loads.
- Certifications: Compliant with ASTM A36 standard; mill test certificates available upon request.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the difference between ASTM A36 and A572 angle iron?
A: ASTM A36 is a mild steel grade with a minimum yield strength of 250 MPa, while A572 offers higher strength grades (e.g., 345 MPa). For guardrail applications, A36 is often sufficient and more cost-effective. Our A36 angle iron is widely used in municipal guardrails due to its good weldability and ductility.
Q2: Can you provide galvanized angle iron for guardrails?
A: Yes, we offer hot-dip galvanized surface treatment as an option. Galvanization provides excellent corrosion resistance, making it ideal for outdoor and coastal environments. Please specify your requirement when placing an order.
Q3: What are the standard lengths available?
A: Standard lengths are 6 meters, 9 meters, and 12 meters. Custom lengths can be produced upon request, subject to minimum order quantities.
Q4: Do you provide mill test certificates?
A: Yes, mill test certificates (MTC) complying with ASTM A36 are available upon request. They verify the chemical composition and mechanical properties of the steel.
Q5: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: Our MOQ for standard sizes is typically 5 tons. For customized sizes or special surface treatments, MOQ may vary. Please contact our sales team for details.
Q6: How do you ensure the angle iron meets the ASTM A36 standard?
A: We source raw materials from reputable steel mills and conduct in-house tests including tensile, yield, and elongation tests. Third-party inspection is also available at the buyer’s request. Each batch is traceable and documented.
Q7: Can this angle iron be used for highway guardrail posts?
A: Absolutely. ASTM A36 angle iron is commonly used for guardrail posts, blockouts, and rail brackets. Its strength and weldability make it suitable for absorbing impact energy in roadside safety systems.
Q8: What is the delivery time for a typical order?
A: For standard sizes and quantities, delivery is usually within 15–25 working days after order confirmation. Larger or customized orders may require additional time. We strive to meet your project schedule.
