ArcelorMittal NC E3.1 Angles
Angles
Hot rolled, weldable structural steel sections
General description
ArcelorMittal Steel South Africa, Newcastle Steel produces an extensive range of structural steel angles.
Non-standard sizes and steel specifications not covered by this data sheet may be considered on an
enquiry basis.
The geometry of angle (equal leg) and angle (unequal leg) sections complies with ISO R 657/1: 1968 and
ISO R 657/11: 1968 respectively with the exception of toe radius which is not guaranteed.
Steel for structural sections is normally produced to SANS 50025/BS EN 10025 grade S355JR.
For improved atmospheric corrosion resistance, COR-TEN® A should be used.
See data sheet: COR-TEN® (file reference E6.1)
For applications where mechanical properties of the steel are not important, angles (equal leg) in the size
range 25 x 25 x 3 mm to 80 x 80 x 12 mm can be ordered in the "mild steel" grade (commercial quality).
The "South African Steel Construction Handbook" published by the South African Institute of Steel
Construction should be consulted for section properties.
Quality assurance
Quality assurance systems based on the requirements of SANS ISO 9001: 2000 are in operation.
Protective coatings
When choosing a rust prevention method for a steel component or structure, many technical factors
including the environment, stress during transport, storage, fitting or erection must be considered.
Adequate preparation of the substrate is of vital importance to the ultimate success of the coating, as is
the method of application. Paint, hot-dip galvanizing or duplex coatings (zinc plus paint) can be specified
for corrosion protection, depending on the aggressiveness of the environment. Choice of the protective
mechanism is considered to be the responsibility of the specifier, fabricator or end user.
Applications
Angle sections can be used for a wide range of structural elements, including lightweight purlins for industrial
and other structures.
Care has been taken to ensure that the information in this data sheet is accurate. ArcelorMittal South Africa Limited does not, however,
assume responsibility for any inaccuracies or misinterpretations of this data. We are continuously engaged in product development and
revised data sheets will be issued from time to time. Please ensure that you have the most recent issue. Effective date: January 2006

Surface quality
Surface defects up to a maximum depth of 3% of the nominal thickness shall not be considered as a reason
for rejection. Larger surface defects may be removed, providing the nominal thickness is not reduced by
more than 7%.
Weldability
The above mentioned structural steel specifications may be welded using any of the standard metal arc
and resistance welding processes, usually without any special precautions. However, when welding
heavy sections, BS 5135:1984 "Metal-arc welding of carbon and carbon manganese steels" should be
consulted to determine preheat requirements at low heat inputs.
Steel grades
Note: The tables of steel grades are not intended to be lists of equivalent grades. They are merely lists of
generically similar steel grades available in each geographic region.
Certification
Test and analysis certificates are supplied for all steel ordered to international specifications. The
mechanical and chemical laboratories of ArcelorMittal Steel S A, Newcastle Steel are SANAS accredited
facilities.

Labels and marking
One polyester label on a metal backing will be tied to each end of the coil/bundle by means of wire ties or
laced to bundle straps at the works’ option.
Coloured metal backings are available in: white, blue, green, purple, grey, brown, orange, pink, black, beige,
light green, light blue and red.
Where no metal backing colour is specified on orders, white labels will normally be used at the works’
discretion.
Labels will bear information to a maximum of four lines with a maximum of forty-five characters per line.
Paint marking
Water based paint marking is available in single colours or up to three stripes in two colours or up to
three stripes in three colour combinations for customers’ identification purposes.
Coloured lines/bands are approximately 50mm or 100mm wide and are applied through approximately 180
degrees. Colour splashes are approximately 100mm in diameter.
