16mm Diameter Mild Steel Reinforcing Bar Rebar Mill Finish - Linear Metre

The Mild Steel Reinforcing Bar (ReBar) described is a specific construction material designed to provide reinforcement in concrete structures.

Material: Constructed from Mild Steel, a type of carbon steel known for its strength, durability, and malleability. Mild steel is commonly chosen for reinforcing applications due to its favourable mechanical properties.

Formability: The formability is described as poor, indicating that the material may have limited malleability during shaping processes. This characteristic may impact the ease with which the bar can be bent or manipulated.

Weldability: Features excellent weldability, allowing for effective joining processes. This is crucial for construction applications where the bars need to be securely connected to form a reinforced structure.

Shape: Configured as a Reinforcing Bar, commonly known as ReBar. Reinforcing bars are used in construction to provide tensile strength to concrete, helping resist forces that may cause cracking.

Corrosion Resistance: Corrosion resistance is described as poor. Mild steel is susceptible to corrosion, especially in harsh environmental conditions. Protective measures, such as coatings or treatments, may be necessary to mitigate corrosion risks.

Diameter: The diameter of the reinforcing bar is 16mm. This dimension is critical in determining the load-bearing capacity and overall strength of the ReBar.

Finish: Features a Mill Finish, indicating that the surface of the bar is in its natural, untreated state. Mill finish may have a somewhat rough texture and is often chosen when additional finishes are not required.

Grade: Manufactured from Grade B500B steel. This grade signifies that the ReBar meets specific mechanical and chemical properties, making it suitable for reinforcing concrete structures.

Weight/Metre: Weighs 1.58 kilograms per meter. This weight is essential for calculating the overall weight of the bars in a construction project, influencing handling, transportation, and overall structural considerations.

Applications: This 16mm Mild Steel Reinforcing Bar is suitable for a variety of construction applications, including foundations, slabs, and structural elements where substantial tensile strength is required in concrete.
