Uses of Flat Bars
Steel Flat bar has a flat surface and rectangular face – making it extremely versatile for a variety of projects. Flat bars are available in a range of widths and thicknesses. The thickness of the steel flat bar will determine the type of jobs it is best suited for. Smaller pieces are normally used for jobs where the amount of pressure and weight will be minimal, while larger thicker pieces are used to support more weight. Here are four key uses for flat bar:

Steel Flat bar is a basic of building support materials. They are generally used for support braces, ladder hangers, gate latches, duct work, overhead doors, heaters, and bracing.
Improvements & Additions
Steel Flat bars are not only used during the building stages – they can be used post-construction to reinforce existing structures. Flat bars are easily cut and formed to fit, replace, or support materials already in place.
Industrial Artwork
Steel Flat bars are a popular choice for industrial artists and craftsmen who work on large-scale industrial pieces – most notably, statues. Flat bars are malleable to shape and extremely sturdy once forged.
