ISA 200×150×12 Weight, Dimensions and IS 808 Properties

ISA 200×150×12 weighs 31.9 kg per metre as per IS 808:1989.

  • One 6-metre length weighs 191.4 kg · one 12-metre length weighs 382.8 kg
  • Long leg 200 mm · short leg 150 mm · thickness 12 mm · area 40.57 cm²
  • Maximum principal moment of inertia Iuu = 1909.0 cm⁴

ISA 200×150×12 is a standard unequal-leg angle in IS 808:1989. At 31.9 kg/m with a 200 mm long leg and 150 mm short leg, it is used for very heavy structural members requiring high biaxial stiffness, primary truss chord and diagonal members, heavy crane-gantry column brackets, and column splice angles in multi-storey heavy industrial frames.

Common Applications of ISA 200×150×12

ISA 200×150×12 is used for very heavy structural members requiring high biaxial stiffness, primary truss chord and diagonal members, heavy crane-gantry column brackets, and column splice angles in multi-storey heavy industrial frames. General steel merchants and angle stockists carry this size in IS 2062 E250 grade in 6 m and 12 m lengths. JSPL, SAIL, and RINL (Vizag Steel) all roll this designation to IS 808:1989 as standard stock.

Worked Example

A fabricator in Chennai needs 2 primary truss diagonal members on a 60 m × 120 m heavy industrial building using ISA 200×150×12, each 6000 mm long. Total length = 2 × 6.0 = 12.0 m. Weight = 12.0 × 31.9 = 382.8 kg. At ₹63,000 per tonne (Chennai, May 2026), material cost is approximately ₹24,116 before cutting charges.
