Equal Angles – Merchant Bar
As the distribution arm of Australia’s only fully vertically integrated steel manufacturer, recycler and distributor, InfraBuild Steel Centre knows everything there is to know about producing quality steel products. Our goal is to provide the country’s industries, innovative businesses and individual tradesmen with the highest quality steel products to help make their constructive visions a reality.
Equal Angles – Merchant Bar
Equal angle steel has many uses in various areas of construction, engineering and steel fabrication. Merchant bar equal angles are manufactured in a right angular shape, meaning the steel possesses tensile strength, is durable yet workable, and there is no risk of the product warping.
InfraBuild Steel Centre supplies equal angle steel in a wide range of sizes. Manufactured in Australia, InfraBuild Steel Centre's steel equal angles exceeds the minimum requirements of AS/NZS 3679.1 – 300.
Typical Uses
Equal angle steel is incredibly versatile and can be applied in many types of construction and industrial fields, including:
- Engineering construction
- Residential construction
- Non-residential construction
- Mining infrastructure
- Transport and storage
- Manufacturing
Merchant bar equal angles are often used in the construction of framing supports, elements of manufacturing equipment, and reinforcement brackets for larger structures.
Features
Although equal angle steel is relatively simplistic in design, there are several advantageous features of both the equal angle steel itself and partnering with InfraBuild Steel Centre, including:
- Available in a wide variety of sizes
- Exceeds the minimum requirements of AS/NZS 3679.1
As part of a fully integrated steel manufacturing and distribution network, InfraBuild Steel Centre is committed to supplying our customers with high-quality steel products that are fit for their intended application.
Relevant Standards
For equal angle steel products to be used safely and effectively, it is important for all companies, including InfraBuild Steel Centre, to adhere to the relevant standards put forth by Australian and New Zealand governments. That’s why our steel equal angle sizes conform to all AS/NZS 3679.1 (hot-rolled bars and sections) required standards.

How we're making an impact
Circular steel manufacturing
We recycle scrap steel and transform it into new steel products through a continuous circular process. Keeping materials in use reduces waste and supports resource efficiency.
Renewable energy transition
We're increasing the use of renewable electricity across our operations as part of our decarbonisation pathway. This helps reduce emissions associated with steel production.
Lower embodied carbon solutions
Innovations such as SENSE 600® help customers reduce material use while maintaining structural performance. Less steel can mean lower embodied carbon outcomes.
Local manufacturing
Manufacturing steel in Australia strengthens sovereign capability, reduces supply chain complexity and supports local jobs and communities.
1.4M tonnes
of scrap steel recycled annually
77%
fewer greenhouse gas emissions from electric arc furnace steelmaking compared with traditional blast furnace steelmaking*
Helping customers build smarter
Sustainability and productivity don't need to compete. Through higher-strength steel, engineering expertise and advanced manufacturing, we're helping customers reduce material use, improve construction efficiency and lower embodied carbon. It's a practical approach that delivers better outcomes for projects, communities and the built environment.
