This is a Black Steel Wide Flange Beam 8" Depth x 8" Flange Width x 31# x 50'.
The “#” of the beam refers to the weight per foot in pounds. When multiplied by the length, it provides the total weight of the beam—in this case, 31 lb/ft over 50 feet.
W-beams, or wide flange beams, are heavy-duty structural components featuring broad, horizontal flanges that sit perpendicular to the central web, giving them their distinctive profile and improved structural performance compared to traditional I-beams. Their design allows for superior load distribution, especially across the top flange, reducing stress on vertical supports and improving overall stability. These characteristics make wide flange beams ideal for commercial construction, residential framing, bridge reinforcement, and large-scale industrial projects. Black Steel construction ensures durability, strong resistance to deformation, and suitability for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Wide Flange Beams are uniquely measured by the Depth of Section/Height x Flange Width x Flange Thickness x Web Thickness, allowing buyers to select the exact structural profile required for their build.
This Beam can be custom cut to lengths of your choice, please click "add cuts" to customize the exact measurements you need.
