Straight answers on sizes, thickness, weight, grades, MTC, pricing and ordering — so your enquiry is specification-ready before you send it.
01
What is a stainless steel unequal angle?
Stainless Steel Unequal Angle is an L-shaped section with a longer and a shorter leg. It is selected for asymmetrical frames, machinery supports, conveyors, transport structures and project fabrication. The section must still be chosen from the approved drawing or BOQ; the product name alone does not establish load capacity, section modulus or suitability for a particular structure.
02
When should a buyer choose an unequal angle instead of an equal angle?
Choose an unequal angle when the connection, frame or support needs different leg widths, edge distances or attachment areas. An equal angle is usually easier for symmetrical details. The longer leg does not by itself guarantee greater safe load; section properties, orientation, connection design and the approved structural calculation remain decisive.
03
What stainless steel unequal angle sizes are shown on the product page?
The live page lists 30 x 20 x 3 mm to 200 x 150 x 18 mm for Stainless Steel Unequal Angle. Size is normally written as leg dimension x leg dimension x thickness; unequal angles must show the long and short legs in the correct order. Confirm the exact combination, rolling or fabrication route, quantity and tolerance requirement at the enquiry stage.
04
What thicknesses are normally considered for SS unequal angles?
The stated thickness range is typically 3 mm to 25 mm. Not every thickness is necessarily available with every leg dimension, grade, finish or length. Send the complete section designation and required quantity so availability can be checked against the requested specification rather than assuming that the whole range is ready stock.
05
How should the long leg, short leg and length be written in a BOQ?
The page states the required commercial or project length, subject to confirmation. Length affects handling, transport, cutting allowance and total weight. State whether the order requires random, fixed or exact cut lengths, together with the permitted length tolerance and any cutting drawing. Availability should be confirmed before the BOQ is finalised.
06
What is the published weight range for stainless steel unequal angles?
Use the published size or weight chart as an initial reference, then verify the theoretical or actual mass for the exact section and applicable standard. Weight per metre changes with both leg dimensions, thickness, corner radii and permissible rolling tolerances. For commercial settlement, confirm the agreed basis of weight in the supplier quotation.
07
How do I calculate the order weight for unequal angles?
Estimated order weight equals weight per metre multiplied by ordered length and number of pieces. Add any agreed cutting allowance or wastage separately. For unequal profiles, use the listed mass for that exact long-leg, short-leg and thickness combination; do not apply an equal-angle figure. Final invoicing may follow actual or theoretical weight as stated in the quotation.
08
Which grade and product standard should be specified for an unequal angle?
Specify the complete stainless steel material designation, the material standard, dimensional or section standard, size, thickness, length and required tolerance. A grade standard controls chemistry and mechanical requirements, while a dimensional standard controls geometry and rolling tolerances. The purchase order should identify both where the project requires them.
09
What finishes may be requested for stainless steel unequal angles?
The live pages refer to mill, hot-rolled, painted, galvanised or customer-specified finishes depending on the product page. These terms are not interchangeable. State the required surface condition, appearance, coating standard and inspection requirement. For stainless steel, confirm whether a coating is genuinely required and ensure it is compatible with fabrication and service exposure.
10
What is the stainless steel unequal angle price per kg?
There is no reliable fixed current Stainless Steel Unequal Angle price per kg because alloy surcharges, section size, quantity, finish, length and market date change the quotation. Send the exact section, grade, standard, total quantity, documentation and delivery postcode for a dated price. Also confirm whether GST, freight, cutting and inspection are included.
11
How can I request an unequal angle price per tonne?
Yes, a dated Stainless Steel Unequal Angle price per tonne can be requested for a defined requirement. Quote requests should state the size, thickness, length, grade, standard, total tonnage, finish, MTC and delivery location. Compare suppliers on the same tax, freight, weight and documentation basis rather than comparing only the headline tonne rate.
12
Why do two unequal-angle quotations have different prices?
Stainless Steel Unequal Angle pricing is affected by stainless alloy input costs, grade, section mass, size availability, order quantity, length, finish, cutting, testing, inspection, packing and destination. A small mixed-size order may have a different conversion and logistics cost from one repetitive bulk size. Request dated, like-for-like commercial terms.
13
What is the minimum order quantity for SS unequal angles?
The page states a minimum order quantity of 1 tonne. MOQ may need confirmation where the order mixes sizes, asks for uncommon lengths, special finishes, inspection or export packing. Send the piece count and total tonnage by size so the commercially workable quantity can be reviewed accurately.
14
Is every unequal leg combination available from stock?
Do not assume every Stainless Steel Unequal Angle size, thickness, grade and length is available immediately. Availability should be confirmed for the exact specification and quantity on the enquiry date. If timing is critical, include the required delivery date and ask the quotation to identify stock, mill supply or production basis clearly.
15
Can an MTC be requested for stainless steel unequal angles?
An MTC requirement should be stated when requesting Stainless Steel Unequal Angle. Specify the required certificate type, heat or batch traceability and any project-specific format before ordering. The supplied documentation should be checked against the purchase order; do not assume that a generic certificate proves compliance with every project standard.
16
What should be checked during inspection of an unequal angle?
Inspection should cover section dimensions, thickness, length, straightness, surface condition, marking and quantity against the purchase order. For Stainless Steel Unequal Angle, also verify grade identification and traceability to the requested MTC. If third-party inspection is required, name the agency, inspection stage, acceptance criteria and document set in the enquiry.
17
Can unequal angles be cut, drilled or fabricated to a drawing?
Cutting, drilling or fabrication requirements for Stainless Steel Unequal Angle can be reviewed against a drawing. Provide hole sizes and centres, cut lengths, mitres, weld details, edge finish, tolerances and piece identification. Structural connection details and welding procedures must be approved by the responsible engineer; supplier review does not replace design approval.
18
What are common applications of SS unequal angles?
Common buyer applications include asymmetrical frames, machinery supports, conveyors, transport structures and project fabrication. Suitability depends on grade, section properties, exposure, temperature, connection design and maintenance. For load-bearing work, the final angle size and grade must follow approved calculations, drawings, BOQ and the governing project standard.
19
Can Ferrite supply unequal angles in Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Maharashtra?
Buyers searching for a Stainless Steel Unequal Angle supplier in Mumbai, Navi Mumbai or Maharashtra can send the full requirement to Ferrite for review. India-wide or export supply should be checked against quantity and logistics. Include the delivery postcode or destination port, unloading constraints, required date and commercial delivery term.
20
What information should an export or India-wide buyer send for a quotation?
For a fast Stainless Steel Unequal Angle quotation, provide profile, leg dimensions, thickness, grade, standard, length, piece quantity, total tonnage, finish, make preference, MTC and inspection requirements. Add fabrication drawings, delivery postcode or destination port, Incoterm and required date where applicable. This prevents price comparisons based on incomplete or different specifications.
