Benefits of using Corrosion resistant TMT Bars over Ordinary bars

 

Thermo Mechanically Treated or TMT bars are high-strength reinforcement bars that feature a tough outer core and a soft inner core. Corrosion-resistant TMT Bars are in high demand for a variety of reasons.

The benefits of using Corrosion-resistant TMT Bars are as follows:

1.    Longer life compared to ordinary bars:

Corrosion Resistant TMT Bars have a much longer shelf life than ordinary bars. The epoxy coating helps to contain the erosion of the bars. Hence builders have been preferring these bars vis-a-vis construction-related purposes. 

2.    Useful in a tough environment:

Constructions of any kind built with the help of corrosion-resistant TMT Bars are ideal for humid conditions. The coastal states of India like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala & Andhra Pradesh may serve as examples.

These TMT Bars can also withstand acidic soil, saline groundwater & high moisture content in the air very well. Earthquake-prone sensitive seismic zones have also seen increasing use of Corrosion resistant rebars because of their tough & sturdy nature. 

3.    Weldable & Flexible

These rebars are highly weldable & flexible. The usage of copper filling in the pores is the main cause behind this.

      4.    High Ductility 

The bendability of these rebars is another important facet. Corrosion-resistant TMT Bars can be bent & rebent around small mandrels. This will reduce the rate of corrosion in the formative stages of building construction. This makes the building stronger. 

5.    High Yield Strength

The high Yield strength of corrosion-resistant TMT Bars is highly helpful for construction (especially in seismic activity zones). 

6.    Sewage construction & Treatment Plants

Corrosion-resistant TMT Bars help in the construction of sewage drains & treatment plants. Ordinary bars are vulnerable to corrosion from salts, acids & bases in sewage water. 

        Conclusion:

Corrosion-resistant TMT Bars have grown in importance over time. Their sturdiness & adaptability to a variety of conditions have made them indispensable.

JBG Hexa TMT bar has carved out a niche for itself by manufacturing such rebars. Our Corrosion-resistant TMT Bars undergo a thorough compliance test before being sold in the market.
