Product Details

A steel angle bar is a versatile and durable structural component crafted from hot-rolled, mild steel with rounded inside corners. This structural element is widely utilized for its strength, ease of fabrication, and adaptability across numerous industries. Steel angles are integral to the construction of transmission line towers due to their robust mechanical properties and resistance to external stresses.

• Physical Characteristics: Steel angles are L-shaped, with two legs forming a 90-degree angle. The dimensions of the legs can vary to accommodate specific load-bearing and structural requirements. They are typically available in equal-angle (legs of equal length) and unequal-angle (legs of different lengths) forms. Their surface is often treated with galvanization or painting to enhance corrosion resistance.
• Applications in Transmission Line Towers: Steel angle bars play a critical role in the construction of transmission line towers, which are used to support power lines over long distances. Key applications include:
• Structural Support: The steel angles form the primary framework of the towers, providing the necessary strength and stability to withstand wind loads, vibrations, and other external forces. Cross Arms: Angles are used in cross arms, which hold the insulators and transmission wires in position.
• Bracing: They act as braces, ensuring rigidity and distributing stresses evenly across the tower structure.
• Anchoring and Foundation: Used in the anchoring components and foundation to secure the tower to the ground, enhancing stability.
