Default trailer frame steel

If you don't want it, you can cut it up and stack it up in my iron
pile. G It should be a better grade of steel than re-bar due to the
loading requirements on the frame. Shouldn't be problem for anything
you want to build. Just remember that it's going to lose its cold
rolled temper when you heat it up with a welding torch. Just design for
non-structural applications. Same reason it's not kosher to weld on car
frames. It can lead to joint failure.
