Wide Flange Beams (W-Shapes)
Wide flange beams engineered for load bearing frameworks across construction, industrial, and infrastructure projects. Hot rolled from certified steel and processed to tight dimensional tolerances, these beams give engineers and fabricators a product they can specify with confidence on projects where structural integrity is non negotiable.
Key Features
- Wide flange (W) profile with parallel flange surfaces
- Hot rolled construction for consistent grain structure and strength
- Manufactured to ASTM A992 and A572 standards
- Straightness and camber controlled within AISC tolerances
- Mill finish, primed, or hot dip galvanized coating options
- Custom cutting, drilling, and length options for project specific orders
