Description
Rebar is used as concrete reinforcement; it consists of generally circular, corrugated steel bars with a diameter greater than 5 millimeters, although the diameter of the bar is commonly specified in inches.
The surface of the rebar is provided with ridges (corrugations) that improve adhesion to the binding materials and inhibit longitudinal relative movement between the rebar and the surrounding concrete. In fact, the role of the rebar is not only to reinforce the reinforced concrete structure, but also to absorb tensile and torsional stresses.
Our rebar meets the highest quality standards, adhering to national and international standards. NMX-B-506-CANACERO-2019, ASTM-A615M, and ASTM-A706M.
Our rebar has the following characteristics
