L6x6x9/16 (L6x6x.5625) – L Shapes - Equal Leg Angles

L6x6x9/16 is an equal-leg angle with 6 in (152 mm) legs, 9/16 in (14 mm) thick, weighing 21.9 lb/ft (32.6 kg/m).

Equal leg angles are one of the simplest and most versatile structural sections, with two legs of the same size meeting at a right angle. Their simplicity is their strength: angles are inexpensive, easy to cut, drill, bolt and weld, and useful almost anywhere a structure needs bracing, a connection element or a lightweight framing member. Common applications include diagonal bracing, truss web members, framing clips and connection angles, ladder and frame components, and general-purpose fabrication work where a full I-shaped or channel section would be unnecessary.
