Question:

What does 50*50*5 angle mean?

What does 50*50*5 angle mean?

Answer:

Standard Specification for angle iron: indicated by width mm * width * * edge mm.
Angle called angle, the steel strip is perpendicular to each other on both sides into the corner. There are equal angles and unequal angles. The two sides of an equal angle steel are equal in width. The specifications are expressed in millimeters of edge width * edge width * edge thickness. Such as "/ 30 x 30 x 3", that is 30 mm width equal angle, edge thickness of 3 mm. Also available models that model is the number of centimeters wide, such as angle 3#. The model does not mean the size of the different edges and sizes of the same model. Therefore, the width, the edge and the thickness of the angle iron should be filled out in the contract and other documents, so as not to be indicated by the model alone. Standard Specification for hot-rolled equal angle iron is 2#-20#. The angle iron can be made up of different force components according to the different structure, and can also be used as the connecting piece between the components. Widely used in a variety of architectural and engineering structures, such as beams, bridges, towers, hoisting and conveying machinery, ships, industrial furnace, reaction tower, container frame and warehouse.Angle steel is a kind of carbon structural steel for construction. It is a simple section steel, mainly used in the frame of metal component and workshop. In use, better weldability, plastic deformation and mechanical strength are required. The raw steel billet for producing angle steel is low carbon square billet, and the finished product angle iron is made by hot rolling, normalizing or hot rolling.
50*50*5 angle means: the outer section of angle steel is 50mmx50mm, and the angle steel is 5mm.
