HLDL Explanation: I think LDL unit of measurement for hardness, not dimensions. The "Instrucciones de uso Medidor de dureza para metales PCE-2500" talk about "dureza Leeb usado con dispositivo de impacto DL" The Leeb Rebound Hardness Test (LRHT) is on Wikipedia and according to the info there, the term would translate as HLDL. |

Unequal Angle Explanation: Unequal Angle or Unequal Leg Angle - some suppliers call it one and some call it the other. See the discussion box above for more details. I found another reference that refers to LDL 250x150x10 in a diagram and then has a bit of an explanation where it says that these are 'perfiles LD' - which in Spanish are 'Lados Desiguales' profile bar and in English are called Unequal Angle or Unequal Leg Angle. The reference is found here and the drawing is top left of page E10 which is page 12 of 13 of the PDF. https://ruc.udc.es/dspace/bitstream/handle/2183/16582/GomezG... This is a link to a Spanish supplier of Ángulos Lados Desiguales (LD) with diagrams http://www.hierrosbam.net/gestor/recursos/archivos/angulares... Unequal angle - https://www.metalsupplies.com/products/stainless-steel-angle... Unequal leg angle https://www.millstockstainless.com/images/product_pdfs/stain... (the dimensions of T bar are also written AxBxC so the 'extra' L in LDL may be to distinguish the LD profile with L and LD with profile T.
