# United Steel — full content # Flat Bar for Fabrication and What to Check Before Ordering > Source: https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/flat-bar-for-fabrication-and-what-to-check-before-ordering/ > Author: wes towers > Date: 2026-10-07T05:13:59+00:00 Steel flat bar is a versatile product used across construction, manufacturing and general fabrication. Its simple rectangular profile makes it suitable for everything from brackets and supports to machinery components and custom steelwork. However, choosing the right flat bar involves more than selecting a width and thickness. The steel grade, required lengths, finish, and any processing requirements can all affect how the material performs and how efficiently it can be fabricated. Understanding these considerations before ordering can help avoid unnecessary delays, reduce waste and ensure the material supplied meets your project’s requirements. ## What is steel flat bar? Steel flat bar is a solid, rectangular steel section with a consistent width and thickness along its length. Unlike steel hollow sections, flat bar has no hollow interior. Its relatively simple shape makes it convenient to cut, drill, weld and incorporate into fabricated components. United Steel supplies flat bar as part of our [merchant bar range](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/products/merchant-bar/), alongside round bars, square bars and equal and unequal angles. These products are used across construction, manufacturing, infrastructure and general fabrication, with different sizes and specifications available to suit project requirements. ## Common applications for steel flat bar One of the main advantages of steel flat bar is its versatility. Its flat surfaces and rectangular profile make it a practical choice for fabricated components where a consistent width and thickness are required. Common applications include: - Brackets, mounting plates and connection components - Machinery frames and equipment supports - Fabricated gates, frames and general metalwork - Reinforcement and strengthening components - Custom steel fabrication projects Flat bar can be cut into shorter lengths, drilled for fixings or welded into larger assemblies. For example, a fabricator producing equipment brackets might select flat bar that can be cut to length, drilled and incorporated into the finished assembly. However, the required dimensions and steel grade should always be determined by the intended application, particularly when the component has a structural function. ## Understanding steel flat bar sizes Flat bar is generally specified by its width and thickness, with the required length confirmed separately. For example, a 50 × 10 mm flat bar has a nominal width of 50 mm and a nominal thickness of 10 mm. This is an example of how flat bar dimensions are expressed, rather than confirmation of a particular stock size. When reviewing flat bar sizes, there are three main measurements to consider. Width: The distance across the broad, flat face of the bar. Thickness: The distance between its two broad faces. Length: The overall length required for the finished component or supplied material. It is also important to consider the manufacturing tolerances permitted by the relevant product standard. Where components must fit together precisely, fabricators should confirm whether further machining or finishing will be required. ## Choosing the right steel grade Steel grade is another important consideration when ordering flat bar. Different grades have different mechanical properties, which can affect their suitability for structural applications, welding and other fabrication processes. United Steel’s merchant bar products are supplied to meet the relevant requirements of AS/NZS 3679.1, which covers hot-rolled structural steel bars and sections. For engineered components, the grade should be confirmed against the approved drawings and project specifications. It is also worth checking whether material certification or traceability documentation is required. Providing these details when requesting a quote helps ensure the correct product is identified from the outset. ## Consider your cutting and processing requirements Flat bar is often purchased for further fabrication, making processing requirements an important part of the ordering process. Before ordering, consider whether the material needs to be supplied in standard lengths or cut to specific dimensions. For example, ordering material in suitable lengths may help reduce unnecessary cutting and offcuts during fabrication. United Steel’s [steel processing capabilities](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/services/steel-processing/) include equipment such as bandsaws for cutting steel sections and other products. If your project requires cut lengths or other processing, discussing these requirements with our team can help establish the available options before placing an order. Providing accurate drawings, dimensions and quantities at the enquiry stage can also make it easier to coordinate the material supply with your fabrication schedule. ## What about the finish? The required finish will depend on how and where the flat bar will be used. For components installed outdoors or in corrosive environments, additional surface protection may be necessary. If the finished component will be welded, painted or galvanised after fabrication, these requirements should be considered when selecting the material and planning the work. Confirming the intended finish early can help avoid unnecessary preparation or rework later. ## Ordering steel flat bar from United Steel Whether you need flat bar for a small fabrication job or an ongoing manufacturing project, providing clear specifications is the first step towards a straightforward ordering process. Before contacting our team, it helps to have the required dimensions, grade, lengths, quantities and any processing requirements ready. United Steel supplies merchant bar products to customers across Australia, supported by an extensive supplier network and steel processing capabilities.

Rectangular, square and circular steel tubing each offer different advantages depending on the application. Understanding these differences can help builders, fabricators and purchasing teams select suitable materials, streamline fabrication and avoid unnecessary delays. Whether you’re sourcing steel for a building frame, equipment support or general fabrication project, knowing what to look for can make the ordering process much easier. ## What are steel hollow sections? Steel hollow sections are tubular products with a hollow interior. They are available in different shapes, sizes, wall thicknesses and grades to suit a wide range of applications. The three main types are Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS), Square Hollow Sections (SHS) and Circular Hollow Sections (CHS). United Steel supplies all three through our [steel pipe and tube range](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/products/steel-pipe-rhs/), with various sizes, grades and finishes available to suit different project requirements. Each section has its own characteristics, making it important to understand the differences before placing an order. ## RHS: Rectangular Hollow Sections Rectangular Hollow Sections have four flat sides, with two longer faces and two shorter faces. Their rectangular shape makes them particularly useful for building frames, structural supports and fabricated components where a specific width or depth is required. The flat surfaces also provide convenient connection points for welding brackets, plates and other steel components. RHS is commonly used for: - Structural framing and supports - Equipment frames and machinery - General steel fabrication - Building and infrastructure projects The rectangular profile allows engineers to select dimensions that suit the required structural performance and available space. For fabricators, RHS can also be a practical option when components need to sit flush against a flat surface. ## SHS: Square Hollow Sections Square Hollow Sections have four equal sides, creating a consistent profile that works well across structural and general fabrication applications. SHS is commonly used for posts, frames, equipment supports and other fabricated structures. Its square shape provides equal external dimensions in both directions, making it particularly convenient when a consistent profile is required. Like RHS, the flat faces also make it straightforward to position and connect other components. Typical applications include: - Steel posts and support structures - Fabricated frames - Machinery and equipment supports - General construction and manufacturing SHS is often considered where a square appearance is desirable or where the design calls for equal width and depth. The final section size and wall thickness should always be selected according to the project’s engineering requirements. ## CHS: Circular Hollow Sections Circular Hollow Sections have a round profile and are commonly used in construction, engineering and architectural applications. Unlike RHS and SHS, CHS has no flat sides or corners. This can make it particularly useful for exposed steelwork where a smooth, circular appearance is preferred. Its round shape also provides consistent geometric properties about any axis through its centre, which can be advantageous in certain structural applications. CHS is commonly used for: - Structural columns and bracing - Steel posts and supports - Architectural steelwork - General engineering and fabrication One consideration is that connecting brackets or plates to a curved surface may require different fabrication details from those used with rectangular or square sections. The most suitable option will depend on the design, connection requirements and intended application. ## Understanding steel hollow section sizes Once you’ve identified the required section type, the next step is confirming the dimensions. RHS and SHS are generally specified by their external dimensions and nominal wall thickness. For example, a 100 × 50 × 3 mm RHS has external dimensions of 100 mm by 50 mm and a nominal wall thickness of 3 mm. CHS is typically specified by its outside diameter and nominal wall thickness. Wall thickness is particularly important because sections with the same external dimensions can have different weights and structural capacities. When ordering, check the approved drawings and confirm the required dimensions, thickness and lengths before proceeding. ## Choosing the right grade and finish Steel grade and finish are important considerations when selecting hollow sections. United Steel supplies tubular products in various grades, including C250L0, C350L0 and C450L0, depending on the product and specification. Our range also includes painted, primed and galvanised options for different fabrication and corrosion protection requirements. For structural applications, the specified grade and product should comply with the relevant Australian Standards, including AS/NZS 1163 where applicable. The right combination of grade, size and finish will depend on the intended use, environment and engineering requirements. ## Talk to United Steel about your steel pipe and tube requirements Choosing between RHS, SHS and CHS starts with understanding your project’s requirements, including the appropriate dimensions, grade and finish.

The project involves the construction of two flagship service centres on either side of the M4 motorway – each equipped with modern facilities for motorists and truck drivers alike. Metal Projects was engaged by Mainbrace Constructions to fabricate and install all primary steelwork across both the Eastbound and Westbound sites. The steel package included: - Retail Buildings: 40 tonnes each - Car Canopies: 25 tonnes each - Truck Canopies: 18 tonnes each All steel products were processed and supplied by United Steel, including universal beams, columns, and RHS sections. Processing including cutting and drilling was critical to the reliable and efficient delivery of this highly sequenced build. *“We’ve built our business on transparency, relationships, and pushing the boundaries of steel fabrication, and that shows in projects like the M4 redevelopment. Having a partner like United Steel meant we could stick to our timelines confidently. That trust is everything when you’re juggling dual live sites.”* — **Jason Babic**, Managing Director, Metal Projects ## Technical Execution and Site Coordination. From design to installation, Metal Projects managed each stage with precision. Their team erected the eastbound structures first, while coordinating construction of a temporary fuel station to keep westbound operations running. *“Our team has been making strong, steady progress across both the westbound and eastbound sites,” says Jason. “We’ve completed all three eastbound structures and the retail building on the westbound site. We’re now gearing up to complete the final canopy structures.”* — **Jason Babic**, Metal Projects Advanced planning sessions with Ampol’s engineering and operations teams ensured construction could proceed without impacting the customer experience. The Metal Projects team scheduled their works around live fuelling operations and collaborated with site teams to manage traffic flows and equipment access safely. Some key challenges included: - Tight staging requirements to always maintain operational fuelling on at least one side of the motorway. - Large span canopies requiring structural precision and safe heavy lifting. - Coordination with fuel, electrical, and signage trades. Metal Projects developed and executed a strategic build program that allowed for uninterrupted service centre operation while safely delivering large-scale canopy and retail frame construction. *“We had forklifts rolling, trucks fuelling, concrete getting poured, and steel going up, all at once.

From custom-designed residences to multi-unit developments, builders and fabricators are turning to high-quality structural steel solutions to achieve superior performance, and trusted supply partners like United Steel are at the centre of this transformation. ## The Backbone of Modern Residential Construction Structural steel forms the foundation of today’s residential building frameworks. Products such as universal beams (UBs), universal columns (UCs), channels, and structural angles provide the strength and stability required to support modern designs, including open-plan living spaces, large spans, and multi-storey dwellings. Unlike traditional materials, structural steel offers exceptional strength-to-weight performance, allowing engineers and builders to reduce the need for excessive supporting walls or columns. This enables greater architectural freedom while maintaining structural integrity, an increasingly important factor in high-end residential design. At United Steel, a comprehensive range of structural steel products is readily available to support residential projects of all sizes. With products manufactured to meet Australian Standards such as AS/NZS 3679.1, residential builders and fabricators can have complete confidence in compliance, performance, and reliability. ![universal steel beams and columns](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/universal-beams-and-columns.jpg) ## Supporting Fabricators with Precision Processing While quality steel supply is essential, the real value in residential construction lies in how that steel is processed and prepared before it reaches the site. United Steel’s advanced in-house processing capabilities are designed to support fabricators with precision, efficiency, and consistency. Utilising cutting-edge equipment such as beamlines with high-speed drilling and sawing, coping robots for plasma notching and slotting, and oxy profile cutters, United Steel ensures structural steel components are delivered ready for fabrication or installation. This level of precision reduces the need for rework, minimises material waste, and significantly improves turnaround times for fabricators. Whether it’s cut-to-length beams, pre-drilled sections, or complex profiles, these processing services enable fabricators to focus on delivering high-quality outcomes for builders and homeowners. Additional capabilities, such as cambering, introduce controlled curvature into beams, and steel plate processing for base plates and other components further enhances United Steel’s adaptability for residential projects. ## Enhancing Efficiency for Residential Builders For residential builders, time and cost efficiency are critical. Delays on site can quickly impact project timelines and budgets, making reliable supply and pre-processed materials essential. United Steel works closely with builders and fabricators to streamline the supply chain, ensuring structural steel is delivered in the right form, at the right time. With an extensive distribution network and next-day metro delivery capabilities, projects can progress without unnecessary downtime. By providing value-added services such as just-in-time delivery, project forecasting, and tailored supply solutions, United Steel helps residential builders maintain momentum on site while reducing handling and labour costs. ## Collaboration Across the Residential Supply Chain One of the key drivers of success in residential construction is collaboration between steel suppliers, fabricators, and builders. United Steel’s approach is built on partnership, working closely with customers to understand project requirements and deliver tailored steel solutions. From early-stage planning through to final delivery, United Steel supports its customers with technical expertise, product knowledge, and responsive service. This collaborative approach ensures that structural steel components are aligned with design specifications, fabrication requirements, and construction timelines. With extensive experience supplying projects across residential, commercial, and infrastructure sectors, United Steel brings a depth of knowledge that helps customers achieve better outcomes with greater certainty. ## Building the Future with Structural Steel supplied and processed by United Steel As residential construction continues to evolve, the demand for stronger, more efficient, and more versatile building materials will only grow. Structural steel, combined with advanced processing capabilities supplied by United Steel, offers a clear pathway to meeting these demands. United Steel is proud to support Australia’s residential builders and fabricators with a complete structural steel solution, from supply through to precision processing and delivery. By enabling smarter construction practices and delivering reliable steel products, United Steel is helping shape the homes of the future, built stronger, built smarter, and built to last. ## **Need more information** Please **[contact us](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/contact-us/)** with all your steel requirements. --- # United Steel Riverstone NSW Celebrating 6 Great Years in Business > Source: https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/celebrating-6-great-years-in-business/ > Author: Pete > Date: 2026-03-03T00:31:41+00:00 ### It’s Our People That Make United Steel Great This month, United Steel Riverstone NSW proudly celebrated six years in business.

With a goal to elevate the waterfront experience, this high-profile project demanded precise execution, superior steel supply, and seamless coordination in a live public environment. With over five years of collaboration between the two businesses, the synergy between United Steel and Metal Projects enabled the successful delivery of a technically complex, multi-phase structural build on time and to specification. > *“When you have back-to-back site handovers, tight windows, and weather delays, the last thing you need is uncertainty in your steel supply. We’re here to remove that variable.”* > — **Pernell Briggs**, Account Manager, United Steel ![Construction workers using a scissor lift.](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/2.-use-MetalProjects-KingStWharf-3-1024x685.jpg) ## Project Overview: Transforming the Promenade The King Street Wharf Upgrade is a flagship public realm project that reimagined a vibrant waterfront promenade into a connected, architecturally cohesive space. Designed to enhance the dining and pedestrian experience, the redevelopment included six large glazed canopy structures installed across key hospitality venues along the promenade. Metal Projects was engaged by **Mainbrace Constructions** to deliver the full 170-tonne steel package. Their scope included: - Structural steel detailing and fabrication - Painting and surface treatment - Complex cranage and installation across three staged phases *“At King Street Wharf, everything had to be millimetre-perfect. That level of planning only comes with experience and trust in your supply chain.”* — **Jason Babic**, Managing Director, Metal Projects ## United Steel’s Role: Precision. Performance. Partnership. United Steel was responsible for supplying all structural steel for the project, fully processed and prepared for direct site installation. Our team delivered: - **Cut-to-length and drilled-to-spec steel**, ready for immediate assembly - **Full traceability and compliance**, meeting Green Star sustainability criteria - **On-time delivery** to suit staged installation and restricted site access - **Flexibility and responsiveness** to accommodate urgent requests and design changes This approach ensured that Metal Projects could maintain workflow momentum despite logistical challenges, tight site windows, and operating within a live, high-traffic area. *“United Steel’s flexibility and quick response made a big difference. We needed a supplier that could move with us—and they did.”* — **Jason Babic**, Metal Projects ![Stacked metal beams and structural components.](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/3.-use-20240813_161607-1024x461.jpg) ![Modern café with outdoor seating area.](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/5.-use-MetalProjects-KingStWharf-37-scaled.jpg) ## Challenges Tackled. Excellence Delivered. Delivering the steelwork at King Street Wharf meant navigating: - Limited access and space constraints in the CBD - Crane lifts and staging to avoid public disruption - Coordination with glazing, lighting, and shading subcontractors - Environmental exposure requiring premium coatings Despite these constraints, Metal Projects and United Steel worked seamlessly to ensure quality, compliance, and precision on every weld, every bolt, and every delivery. ## Sustainability and Compliance at the Forefront All steel supplied by United Steel was **fully traceable and compliant with Australian Standards**, supporting Metal Projects’ goal to meet Green Star sustainability benchmarks. The finished canopies provide durable weather protection and reduce heat gain—enhancing the environmental performance and long-term functionality of the precinct. > *“Fabricated steel that meets Green Star ratings is no longer a ‘nice-to-have’—it’s expected. We want to be at the forefront of sustainability.”* > — **Jason Babic**, Metal Projects --- ## The Outcome: A Landmark Built on Steel From concept to completion, the King Street Wharf Upgrade highlights the value of strategic supplier partnerships. The structural steel framework not only elevated the design of the promenade but also showcased the power of precision engineering and collaborative delivery. > *“It’s one of those projects where every person on the team can walk by and say, ‘We did that.’ There’s pride in it, and that pride is earned.”* > — **Jason Babic**, Metal Projects --- ## Explore the Full Case Study [Metal Projects Case Study – King Street Wharf](https://online.flippingbook.com/view/481737000) Important Notice and Disclaimer: The information contained in this case study is provided by way of general information only and has not been prepared with your specific needs in mind.

TSS Engineering has an impressive project record, dotted with big-name clients in civil infrastructure and government. Originating in the early 2000s, the directors consolidated their expertise and established TSS Engineering in 2017. Since then, the company has further expanded its team, expertise, facilities, equipment and accreditations. Today, TSS Engineering design and fabricate reliable, high quality engineering products and components to meet the highest standards and specifications. They offer a complete design, manufacture, construction and commissioning service, able to answer the call where higher production capabilities are needed. ![Modern buildings with greenery and sky](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20230316_100425-scaled-1-1024x768.jpg) ## Rozelle Interchange – big city road infrastructure Part of the broader WestConnex motorway scheme, the Rozelle Interchange is a major NSW infrastructure initiative, connecting major Sydney arterials and improving traffic flow for the community. TSS Engineering was engaged to fabricate, assemble and construct the stunning architectural steelwork, which wrapped and connected three ventilation stacks within the project. Located in one of Sydney’s most prominent arterial junctions, quality steel products were required to bring the complex structure to life and stand the test of time. And with Sydney’s population at around 5.5 million, this structure will catch the attention of endless passing motorists for years to come. ![Construction site with cranes and machinery.](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20230213-Moorebank-1-scaled-1-1024x768.jpg) ## A Quality, Reliable Solution TSS Engineering’s partners are key to their delivery of successful, quality projects. A long-time TSS Engineering supplier, United Steel supplies a variety of products from tubular steel including pipe, rectangular and square hollow sections, merchant bar, including angles and flats, through to structural steel including channels and universal beams. United Steel’s expert teams have also supplied some of Australia’s largest, most recognisable construction and infrastructure projects, backed by distributor agreements with prominent Australian steel mills. United Steel were an ideal partner for the Rozelle Interchange project. “United Steel provide consistent and competitive project pricing, flexible and tailored lead times, and prompt customer service. The United Steel team help us to secure new project work, by supporting us with services like the nesting of steel products for projects requiring complex steel processing and fabrication,” said Andrew Ha, Operations Manager TSS Engineering. “The quality, traceability and compliance of all steel products is vital and one of the key drivers to successful project outcomes,” he said. His company’s Management Data Reporting System underpins this, “We reported on all aspects of quality – an important and critical requirement for this Rozelle Interchange government project.” ## A Complex and Interconnected Construction Task **This spectacular design demanded an exacting construction effort.** “The steelworks that surround and connect the three vent stacks required complex fabrication to join 60 metres of steelworks, an even more sophisticated installation method at altering heights,” said Michael Shim, General Manager TSS Engineering. “Each stack is around 30 metres high, with a series of vertical beams on each and two bridge structures connecting the stacks.” The fabricated structure comprised 108 pieces of vertical beams, 875 pieces of horizontal beams and 103 pieces of steel tube, all interlocking to create one continuous structure close to one kilometre in length. A whopping 31 flights of spiral staircases were created, along with 229 live plants and 286 architectural cladding panels, assembled using 450 anchors and 22,000 bolts. Precision and alignment were crucial, explained Michael: “If the first piece is misaligned, then there could be a domino effect causing the entire structure to be incorrectly coordinated. To reduce the risk of misalignment and discrepancies, we set up a temporary structure at our workshop and used it to precisely coordinate all critical parts in fabrication along the steel.” “Once the project’s unique design sections were welded together, they were connected and checked prior to site delivery to eliminate craneage and connection issues,” said Pernell Briggs, Business Development Manager for United Steel. Ultimately, all steel pieces delivered to site were within allowable tolerances and did not require any on-site modification. ![Construction workers on elevated platform](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20230509-Photo-2-scaled-1-1024x576.jpg) ## Safety – the highest common denominator United Steel supported TSS Engineering’s duty to provide safe, sustainable, and consistent service outcomes throughout the Rozelle Interchange project, a commitment central to the TSS Quality, Environment, and Health and Safety Management System (QEHS). Keeping project teams and supplier partners safe was paramount throughout all project stages, particularly while working at heights with heavy products during the installation phase. TSS Engineering designed and manufactured a bespoke lifting jig to assist with installation. The specially developed lifting method used a frame able to support the entire weight of the steel during lifting. This substantially reduced the risk of heavy lifting activity, leading to an enviable result of zero safety incidents at project completion. United Steel played its part to ensure site deliveries aligned with specific site delivery requirements at nominated times, within a busy corridor “With the project located in a high-profile, high traffic location linking Sydney’s inner west with the CBD, working in and around existing congestion was key for United Steel and other key supply partners supporting TSS Engineering,” said Pernell. ## Successful connections. The unique interconnections of this structure were echoed in the collaboration that underpinned its success. “The teamwork I experienced on this project was the best I have seen so far,” reflected Michael. “I believe having good teamwork between all parties involved – like we had on this project. All challenges will have solutions and they will be the key to a successful outcome.” TSS Engineering is squarely focused on growth and agility in the competitive and evolving New South Wales market, backed by their high-quality fabrication capabilities, innovative services, and determination to exceed client project expectations. “United Steel is proud to have contributed to the success of this dynamic, landscape-changing project for TSS Engineering, enabling them to meet all the expectations of their clients John Holland + CPB Contractors Joint Venture,” said Pernell. “Our formidable experience has set us up as the best steel supply and management partner for future client projects – they can trust us to provide complete steel supply chain solutions for their unique needs.” **Congratulations to TSS Engineering for winning the Australian Steel Institute 2024 Award for NSW/ACT Buildings – Small Projects with the Rozelle Interchange project**. **[To learn more visit the ASI](https://www.steel.org.au/news-and-events/news/asi-national-steel-excellence-award-winners-announced)** [United Steel Case Study – TSS Engineering](https://online.flippingbook.com/view/105060854) Important Notice and Disclaimer: The information contained in this case study is provided by way of general information only and has not been prepared with your specific needs in mind.

We understand that empowering our experienced teams to think creatively and remain agile delivers excellence in steel supply for our customers. This is what sets us apart. Material traceability and certification ensure that the materials that makeup all the parts of a finished steel product have production records. Traceability has three key benefits: it increases supply chain visibility, improves quality control systems, and reduces risk. Traceability allows the United Steel team to follow a steel product’s journey along its supply chain, from its raw state through processing, production, and distribution into the customer’s operations. By keeping a record of our steel products’ documentation history, we can provide surety to our customers for projects requiring this visibility. This level of data collection is part of the quality, assurance, and delivery promise we make to our customers. Our ability to show the journey of our steel through its production and distribution provides our customers with peace of mind and confidence when undertaking major project work. It allows us to demonstrate to the building and construction industry that we source and supply high-quality steel products.

At United Steel, we strive to meet various project requirements, providing a wide range of Line Pipe products, and associated fittings. ### Types of Line Pipe There are two forms of Line Pipe available: seamless pipe, and ERW (Electric Resistance Welded) pipe. **Seamless Pipe:** This form of Line Pipe is manufactured by heating a solid bar or steel billet, and piercing a hole through the centre to create a pipe with a specific diameter and wall thickness. The seamless manufacturing process results in a pipe without any welds or seams. Thanks to this, it can withstand high pressures and corrosive environments with reduced potential weakness. **Electric Resistance Welded Pipe:** EWR begins with a flat steel product that is then rolled into a pipe section, with the seam formed by applying electric current through the product. These pipes are known for having a high level of accuracy in the manufacturing process, and boast impressive impact resistance. They are used in various industries, including construction, and also in emerging sectors, like solar tracking in renewable energy projects. ## Line Pipe Products Catalogue – United Steel [United Steel – Steel line pipe 2024](https://online.flippingbook.com/view/566828303/) **Pipes, Valves and Fittings with United Steel Kalgoorlie** United Steel Kalgoorlie are experienced with supply mining customers with quality pipes, valves and fittings products including the Victaulic range of pipe joining products and systems.

With in-house processing capabilities like precise cut-to-length, drilling, and more, we ensure your structural needs are met. Universal columns, often referred to as “H” beams due to their shape, are vital for various projects. Similarly, “I” beams or UBs are frequently used in construction. Learn more about our [Universal Beams and Universal Columns](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/products/structural-universal-steel-beams-columns/). ### Welded Beams and Welded Columns Welded Beams and Welded Columns play a pivotal role in heavy engineering projects, providing crucial support for substantial loads in various infrastructure applications. From bridges and multi-level car parks to mining operations and sports stadiums, these robust structural components find widespread use. United Steel maintains an inventory of welded beams and welded columns in grade 300, with additional options like 300L15, 400, and 400L15 available upon request. We source these products from ACRS certified manufacturers, ensuring adherence to applicable Australian standards. Our services also encompass value-added processing, including beamline solutions and mid-span beam cambering on applicable products. The significant size of welded beams and columns, in comparison to other structural elements, offers engineers the flexibility to design projects with significantly larger spans, thereby reducing the need for additional support features like piers in road construction. This not only contributes to lighter, more efficient structures but also enables the incorporation of extra floors in buildings, maximising commercial space. In stadium construction, these components find applications in cantilever sections for multi-level seating, awnings, and roofing. Moreover, they prove invaluable in mining infrastructure, serving roles in conveyors, mineral processing, heavy equipment, and materials handling. United Steel can also source a range of quench and tempered steel plate products often used in mining applications. For tailored solutions matching your project requirements, please consult our expert team. **[View the Welded Beams and Columns Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) in our technical library.](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/technical-library/)** ### Tapered Flange Beams Tapered Flange Beams share the familiar “I” shape of other structural beams, but their distinctive feature lies in the tapered flanges that connect the web section. This unique design imparts enhanced strength and resistance to bending forces. Tapered flange beams frequently serve as cross-sectional components for girders in construction projects and are also employed in the construction of truck trailer bodies. **[View the Hot Rolled Structural and Merchant Bar Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) in our technical library.](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/technical-library/)** ### Steel Channels – Parallel Flange Channels PFCs, or Parallel Flange Channels, offer exceptional versatility in structural steel applications. Also referred to as C channels or U channels, PFCs find widespread use in industrial and commercial buildings, as well as engineering and mining applications. These channels can serve both as horizontal supports and vertical braces, making them indispensable for a variety of construction needs. They are often installed over windows and doorframes to reinforce the surrounding walls or brickwork in buildings. PFCs come in various size combinations and finishes, including black, DuraGal®, and hot-dipped galvanised options. Parallel flange channels, a crucial steel channel product, play a significant role in diverse fabrication applications such as floor joists and trailer bodies. When combined with other structural steel elements like RHS, beams, and columns, steel channels serve as a versatile hot-rolled steel product suitable for various building applications, including framing and flooring, as well as applications like trailer manufacturing. The inherent shape of steel channels provides substantial structural strength, making them a preferred choice for framing and bracing needs. Combined with other structural steel products such as RHS, beams, and columns, steel channels are a general-purpose hot-rolled steel product with numerous applications in buildings, including frames and floors, as well as other applications like trailer manufacturing. The shape of steel channels provides structural strength and is often used in framing and bracing applications. At United Steel, we supply top-quality steel channel products sourced from InfraBuild. These products are hot-rolled in compliance with Australian Standards AS3679.1, using grade 300 plus steel. They come in a mill finish and offer a wide size range to cater to a multitude of applications. **[View the Hot Rolled Structural and Merchant Bar Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) in our technical library.](https://www.unitedsteel.com.au/technical-library/)** ### Structural Steel Equal Angles and Unequal Angles Structural steel equal angles and unequal angles are versatile components with extensive applications in construction projects, making them among the most widely used structural steel products. They serve as critical supports in building frames and are also invaluable in a variety of industrial engineering applications, where they reinforce structures, support shelving, framing, and brackets. As their names imply, structural steel equal angles have equal side lengths, while unequal angles feature differing side lengths. These angles come in various finishes to accommodate a wide range of end-use requirements. DuraGal® is one such finish, providing effective corrosion protection.
