Wide flange and I-beams are fundamental components in construction, residential, industrial, and infrastructure projects. With their high load-bearing capacity and durable web-flange design, steel beams are ideal for supporting vertical loads and spanning long distances in structural frameworks.

At Central Steel Supply Company, we offer a comprehensive inventory of high-quality, structurally rated steel beams in various profiles and sizes. Our facility is fully equipped to handle both standard stock orders and custom processing, ensuring you’re supplied with reliable materials that meet your exact specifications.

Available Sizes and Specifications

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

Wide Flange and I-beams

We carry a broad selection of wide flange, primed wide flange, and I-beams suitable for a range of structural applications. Wide flange beams have webs and tapered flanges that offer greater strength and stability, making them ideal for horizontal support in buildings, bridges, and large industrial structures.

To support our clients’ evolving needs, Central Steel Supply maintains an extensive stock of beam sizes and lengths, including standard sections up to 50 feet in length for certain sizes.

• Wide Flange. Available stock from 4” x 13.0# through 18” x 35.0#
• Primed Wide Flange. Available stock from 8” x 18.0# through 14” x 34.0#
• I-Beams. Available stock in 3” x 5.7#, 4” x 7.7#, & 6” x 12.5#

Stock Lengths and Custom Cuts

Central Steel Supply keeps a wide range of beam profiles in stock to meet fast-moving construction timelines. Standard beams are available in lengths up to 50 feet, but our in-house processing capabilities allow us to cut, drill, cope, and scribe your beams to the exact dimensions required—saving you time, reducing waste, and simplifying on-site installation.

Processing Services for Steel Beams

At Central Steel Supply, we deliver more than just raw material. Our advanced processing equipment allows us to prepare your beams with speed, precision, and consistency.

Drilling, Cutting, Coping, Slotting, and Scribing

• Drilling: We offer beam drilling services to accommodate bolt holes or other assembly needs, helping streamline fabrication and reduce on-site labor.
• Saw Cutting: We provide straight or mitered cuts for steel beams in your desired lengths, whether for bulk orders or one-off custom pieces.
• Coping: The removal of a portion of the beam’s flange or web to ensure a precise fit and seamless alignment with connecting steel components.
• Slotting: We can create elongated holes or openings in steel beams to allow for adjustable connections, accommodate bolts, or align with other structural elements during assembly.
• Scribing: We can mark precise layout lines or reference points on a steel surface to guide cutting, drilling, or welding for accurate fit-up and assembly. We can also scribe piece markings directly onto the steel to simplify identification and ensure efficient, accurate assembly on-site.

CAD File Integration for Accuracy

Our expert team will work closely with you to ensure that we fabricate your steel beams 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 processed beams — even for those with complex requirements. Our goal is to create accurate, high-performance beams that will fit optimally and streamline assembly in your operations.

Industries and Use Cases

Steel beams are vital in nearly every structural build, providing strength, stability, and support in:

• Commercial and Industrial Construction: Beams are core components in buildings, warehouses, and infrastructure projects, offering foundational support for floors, roofs, and load-bearing walls.
• Bridges and Civil Engineering Projects: Their high tensile strength and ability to span long distances make beams ideal for bridge supports and overpasses.
• OEM and Heavy Equipment Manufacturing: Steel beams are used in machinery bases, platforms, and heavy-duty frames that demand strength and rigidity.
