Rebar is a popular type of long products, which is widely used in the field of construction and production. The fittings are manufactured by hot rolling on specialized equipment of metallurgical plants.
The main characteristics of the material
The material is made of high-quality alloy and carbon steel and can have different modifications and cross-sectional diameters. The main types are:
- smooth rod;
- corrugated rod.
Rebar supplies are made in special packs, sale is carried out by weight or by meter. The price depends on the quantity of the purchased rental. Better buy a ton of rebar right away, it will be released cheaper than purchasing in separate small batches.
Steel reinforcement is indexed into 10 classes and has the following markings, for example: А1000, А400С, А600К, At800.
The first letter of the marking means belonging to a certain type:
- A (rod type);
- К (rope type);
- P (wire type);
- T (thermally hardened).
The numeric index in the middle shows the yield strength, and the last letter indicates the technical properties:
- C (means that the product is weldable);
- K (corrosion resistance);
- B (increased strength by drawing).
The reinforcement can have varying degrees of rigidity and ductility, depending on the direction of use.
Applications
The smooth type of reinforcement is widely used for the production of various metal structures - gratings, fences, fences. It is also used as a reinforcing base for some reinforced concrete products. It can serve as thrust elements for various technical systems and structures.
Corrugated reinforcement is a popular material in the construction of any building or structure. The ribs applied to the surface of the rod significantly increase adhesion - adhesion to cement and concrete mortars. Corrugated products are used for the construction of foundations, floors, walls, and other elements of building structures. The fittings are used in the production of piece-type concrete products - plates, rings, blocks, curbs. Due to the strengthening of the structure with metal reinforcement, concrete acquires additional properties of rigidity, withstands huge dynamic and static loads, does not crack, its service life increases several times.
It is possible to purchase fittings and other types of rolled products in the KievSpetsProkat company. Metallurgical products are supplied directly from the manufacturer and are of high quality workmanship.
