Carbon Steel

B500A grade steel is typically employed for steel mesh products, whereas B500B grade steel is utilized for steel bars. B500C steel is seldom necessary, and it is advisable for structural engineers to verify if B500B grade steel can be substituted for B500C, as B500C often entails a substantial cost overhead.

BS4449 is another standard for deformed steel bars, which is also categorized according to European standards. These steel bars are manufactured through the hot rolling process, indicating their suitability for general purposes, such as common construction projects.

A deformed bar, commonly referred to as rebar (short for reinforcing bar), is a steel bar or mesh of steel wires employed as tension devices in reinforced concrete and reinforced masonry structures. Its primary function is to strengthen and maintain the concrete in tension. The surface of deformed bars is typically patterned to create a stronger bond with the concrete.

Epoxy resin coated steel bars are created by applying an epoxy resin protective coating to the surface of regular steel bars using an electrostatic spraying powder high-temperature sintering process. This coating offers outstanding chemical corrosion resistance and does not react with acids and alkalis. Additionally, it provides anti-permeability.

Galvanized reinforcing steel refers to bare reinforcing steel coated with a protective layer of zinc metal. This zinc coating acts as a barrier against corrosive elements that the rebar is exposed to when embedded in concrete.

B1499.2-2007 is a European standard for steel bars. Typically, GB1499.2-2007 standard deformed steel bars are produced using the hot-rolled method, making them the most prevalent type of deformed steel bars. These bars are offered in various lengths and sizes, ranging from 6 mm to 50 mm in diameter.

TMT, or Thermo Mechanical Treatment, refers to a thermomechanical process used to enhance the properties of steel bars. These TMT steel bars are commonly utilized in construction to provide improved protection against earthquakes and other natural disasters. It is crucial for TMT steel bars to exhibit corrosion resistance in order to ensure the safety and durability of the structure.

Low carbon material from which wire rod and round wire are produced in riots or cut rods. Standart: ASTM A510M. Standard specification for general requirements for carbon steel wire rod and round wire. Classification: Low-carbon steel.

Galvanized steel wire refers to a steel wire that has been coated with zinc to protect it from corrosion, a process known as galvanization. This process involves applying a zinc layer to the surface of the steel wire, creating a barrier that prevents oxygen and water from reaching the steel, thereby preventing rust.

High carbon steel is used to make spring tempered carbon steel wire. Commonly used grades of spring steel wire do not have a specific chemical name. They are instead specified and manufactured according to performance criteria specific to their primary end use, which is the manufacture of coil springs.

Low-carbon bright alkaline steel wire is a good general-purpose grade and is the most common type in daily life, such as hangers, electrical shelves, store displays and paper clips. It has good bending and flattening performance, is easy to form, and is conducive to welding.

PC Strand, also known as prestressed concrete steel strand, is a twisted steel cable comprising high-strength steel wires that are stress-relieved (stabilized) for use in prestressed concrete or similar applications.
