Angles

Also known as angle irons, angle bars, and L-shaped steel, steel angles are widely used in construction, industrial, and manufacturing projects to provide stability and structural support. Taking the shape of the letter L, steel angles’ design gives them excellent versatility and strength, making them a great option for load-bearing, bracing, framework, and reinforcement applications.

At Central Steel Supply Company, our team supplies high-quality, industry-compliant steel angles for dependable performance regardless of application. Read on to learn more about your steel angle options, the processing services we provide, and common applications for these critical structural components.

Available Sizes and Specifications

Central Steel provides multiple types of steel angles in the dimensions you require.

Equal and Unequal Leg Angles

Our extensive inventory includes both equal and unequal leg steel angles. As the name implies, equal leg angles are designed with two legs of the same length, which allows them to deliver support of equal strength in structural projects. Alternatively, the legs of unequal leg angles are of two different lengths. They’re suited to bracing, framing, and other applications in which asymmetrical support is acceptable.

To fulfill the unique requirements of our client base, Central Steel Supply provides leg angles in myriad numerous sizes and material thicknesses. Ranging from ½” x ½” x ⅛” thick through 8” x 8” x ½” thick in stock and various other sizes available as well. For example, our unequal leg angles come in such options as 3″ x 2-1/2″ x 1/4″ and 3″ x 2″ x 3/8″.

To meet the diverse needs of our clients, Central Steel Supply offers steel angles in a wide range of sizes and thicknesses. We stock lengths up to 40 feet, with dimensions ranging from ½” x ½” x ⅛” to 8” x 8” x ½”. Both equal and unequal leg angles are available, with unequal leg combinations totaling up to 16 inches. Additional sizes can be provided upon request.

Stock Lengths and Custom Cuts

To maintain in-stock availability of common products for our construction clients and more, we provide steel in standard sections of up to 60 feet in length. However, as New England’s premier steel service center, Central Steel Supply offers you the flexibility to have your steel angles custom-cut in-house to your specific dimensions. This service ensures the delivery of ready-to-use steel angles that reduce material waste and on-site preparation requirements.

CAD File Integration for Accuracy

Our expert team will work closely with you to ensure that we fabricate your steel angles per your specifications. We take your detailed shop drawings or CAD files and incorporate them into the company’s processing workflow. Leveraging this design information results in uniform, precision angles — even for those with complex shapes. Our goal is to create accurate, high-performance angles that will fit optimally and streamline assembly in your operations.

Industries and Use Cases

Adaptable, durable, and strong, L-shaped structural angles offer reliable load-bearing support and stability for projects across diverse markets. They’re well-suited to framing, bracing, and reinforcement applications in such sectors as:

• Commercial construction and engineering. Steel angles are ubiquitous in commercial construction and engineering projects for building or reinforcing robust structural frameworks. They provide the necessary lateral bracing support and load capacity while avoiding deformation.
• Industrial. These angles are also ideal for industrial applications, as they’re applicable in pieces of heavy equipment and their frames to provide structural support.
• Original equipment manufacturing. Within the OEM sector, steel angles are important components for creating anything from vehicles to machinery.
