Steel Bar

- Versatile High-strength Material

Steel bar offers exceptional strength and machinability for construction and manufacturing, with hot-rolled options providing up to 100-year durability in reinforced concrete, reducing long-term maintenance needs.

Robust Carbon Steel Bar Stock Ideal for Structural Reinforcement and Precision Machining in Construction Projects

Steel bar is a fundamental metal product made from carbon steel, available in various shapes like round, flat, square, and hexagonal profiles. Renowned for its high tensile strength and weldability, it serves as essential reinforcement in concrete structures, fabrication components, and machinery parts. From hot-rolled bars for general construction to cold-rolled variants for precise machining, steel bars provide reliable performance across industries, ensuring structural integrity and cost-effective solutions in demanding environments.

Key Features

  • Superior tensile strength and ductility for load-bearing applications in construction
  • Excellent machinability in grades like 12L14, enabling tight tolerances and smooth finishes
  • Hot-rolled surface with radius corners for easy welding and forming without cracking
  • Non-corrosive properties in reinforcing steel rebar, maintaining integrity for up to 100 years
  • Versatile shapes including round, square, and flat for diverse fabrication needs
  • Affordable and lightweight compared to other metals, simplifying transport and installation
  • Pickled and oiled (P&O) options to prevent rust during storage and handling
  • Custom cut-to-size availability for precise project requirements
