Carbon Steel H-Beam — Factory Direct Supplier | Huaxia-Steel

Huaxia-Steel is a factory-direct supplier of carbon steel H-beams (wide-flange beams) for structural frameworks. With their efficient I/H cross-section, H-beams deliver high strength-to-weight ratios for columns and long-span beams. We supply Q235B, Q355B, A36, S235/S355, and SS400 in standard and custom sizes, with mill test certificates and export packaging.

Product Overview

An H-beam has parallel flanges of roughly equal width connected by a web, forming an “H” cross-section. Compared with I-beams (tapered flanges), H-beams have a wider, more uniform profile that handles bidirectional bending better — ideal for building columns and heavy frames.

Applications

High-rise building columns and frames
Industrial plants and warehouses
Bridges and flyover structures
Crane rails and gantries
Offshore and port structures

Quality Assurance

We verify chemical composition, yield/tensile, impact (Charpy) where required, and dimensional tolerances per standard. Mill test certificates accompany every shipment; third-party inspection (SGS, BV, TUV) supported.

Packaging & Shipping

H-beams are bundled, separated by spacers, and loaded by crane into containers (cut lengths) or break-bulk. Anti-rust oil or VCI paper available for long transit.
