ISA 30×30×3 Weight, Dimensions and IS 808 Properties

ISA 30×30×3 weighs 1.4 kg per metre as per IS 808:1989.

  • One 6-metre length weighs 8.4 kg · one 12-metre length weighs 16.8 kg
  • Leg 30 mm × thickness 3 mm · root radius 5.0 mm
  • Cross-sectional area 1.74 cm² · Iuu = 1.4 cm⁴

ISA 30×30×3 is a light equal-leg angle in IS 808:1989. At 1.4 kg/m with a 30 mm leg, it is commonly used for light secondary bracing, shelf support angles, and minor structural cleats in fabricated assemblies.

Common Applications of ISA 30×30×3

ISA 30×30×3 is used for light shelf angles, thin gusset cleats, door frame stiffeners, cable tray support brackets, and minor bracing in equipment frames and enclosures. It is widely stocked at general steel merchants across India in IS 2062 E250 grade in 6 m lengths.

Worked Example

A contractor in Vadodara needs 50 shelf support angles of ISA 30×30×3, each 300 mm long, for a storage system. Total length = 50 × 0.3 = 15 m. Weight = 15 × 1.4 = 21 kg. At ₹65,000 per tonne (Vadodara, May 2026), material cost is approximately ₹1,365.
