Rust happens, but there are ways to slow it down.

When steel is exposed outdoors, moisture, oxygen, humidity, and changing temperatures can all contribute to corrosion over time.

The key is creating a barrier between the steel and the environment. Paint, protective primers, and powder coating are common options, while galvanizing uses a layer of zinc for longer-lasting protection.

We break down these methods, along with a few other ways to help protect outdoor steel, in our latest blog.

What does “Schedule 40” tell you about a pipe?

We asked Steven to give us a quick breakdown of Schedule 40, how wall thickness relates to pipe size, and what happens as the schedule increases.

Another piece of industry jargon, explained simply. 👌🏼

Getting the most out of your material starts with ordering the right amount.

One way we help customers reduce waste is by offering half-lengths on many items we stock. If you only need 10 or 12 feet instead of a full 20- or 24-foot length, we can often sell you just what you need.

For larger quantities, we can also special order custom mill lengths. A 22- or 28-foot length, for example, might fit your finished parts better than a standard length, meaning more parts per stick and less leftover material.

On a large production run, those savings can add up.

With a little planning, the right material lengths can help reduce scrap, improve material utilization, and keep overall costs down.

How do you safely ship a 100-pound concrete step?

We asked Franklyn to walk us through how our team prepares concrete steps for shipment.

There’s a little more to it than just putting them on a pallet. Each order is carefully inspected, secured, protected, and checked again before it heads out.

👇🏼 Watch Franklyn take us through the process.

How much does that piece of steel actually weigh?

Steel weight comes down to a few things: the shape, size, thickness, and length of the material.

For carbon steel, the basic calculation starts with:

Volume × Density = Weight

Simple enough, until you start calculating the volume of tubing, pipe, beams, and other shapes. 😅

We break down how steel weight is calculated here: https://www.steelsupplylp.com/blog/how-much-does-steel-weigh

Need steel by the truckload? We can help.

These recent loads included W8 x 24 wide fl**ge beams, along with 8" square tubing in 5/16" and 3/8" wall thicknesses.

We keep a wide range of material on hand and offer several shipping and delivery options to help get it where you need it.

🤝🏼 Whatever your project needs, our team is here to help.

Steel has a serial number. Well, sort of.

It’s called a heat number, and it plays an important role in identifying and tracing steel.

We asked Jason Gunn to explain what a heat number is, where you’ll find it, and why it matters.

As he puts it, “We love MTRs over here.” 😂 And heat numbers are a big part of that.

They may look similar, but pipe and tubing are made to do different jobs.

Steel pipe is primarily designed to carry liquids, gases, and other materials through a piping system. Mechanical tubing, on the other hand, is commonly used for structural and mechanical applications like frames, supports, railings, and fabricated assemblies.

Knowing the difference can help you choose the right material for the job.
