ISA 30×30×5 Weight, Dimensions and IS 808 Properties
ISA 30×30×5 weighs 2.2 kg per metre as per IS 808:1989.
- One 6-metre length weighs 13.2 kg · one 12-metre length weighs 26.4 kg
- Leg 30 mm × thickness 5 mm · root radius 5.0 mm
- Cross-sectional area 2.77 cm² · Iuu = 2.0 cm⁴
ISA 30×30×5 is the heavier 30 mm equal-leg angle in IS 808:1989. At 2.2 kg/m it provides 43% more cross-sectional area than ISA 30×30×3, used for stressed shelf brackets, welded cleats, and light secondary members in industrial equipment frames.

Common Applications of ISA 30×30×5
ISA 30×30×5 is used for welded shelf support cleats, equipment base frame connections, small bracket fabrications, staircase nosing supports, and light secondary members. Stocked by general steel merchants across India in IS 2062 E250 grade.
Worked Example
A workshop fabricator in Rajkot needs 30 equipment base cleats of ISA 30×30×5, each 150 mm long. Total length = 30 × 0.15 = 4.5 m. Weight = 4.5 × 2.2 = 9.9 kg. At ₹65,000 per tonne (Rajkot, May 2026), material cost is approximately ₹644.
