Stainless Steel Angle - Equal Leg
Stainless steel equal leg angle is characterized by its L-shaped cross-sections where both legs of the angle are equal in length; they are commonly used in construction, engineering, and fabrication due to their versatility and durability. When made of stainless steel, the combination of strength, durability, and corrosion resistance is further enhanced and delivers greater advantages across various industries for a variety of applications.
Benefits of Stainless Steel Equal Leg Angles by Application
When an equal leg angle is made of stainless steel, it’s typically made of austenitic steel (304 and 316) which offers greater levels of corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. These primary advantages of using stainless steel as the material for equal leg angles is why Alcobra Metals provides it and translates to the advantages below:
