Products Specification

Austenitic Stainless Steel Rebar

Austenitic steel is very high on nickel (around 7%). Due to this reason, the alloy is extremely weldable and malleable and has excellent corrosion resistance. It also has a high amount of chromium and 2% to 3% of molybdenum addition. This further strengthens its corrosion resistibility in harsh environments, especially against chlorides. The Nitrogen content provides tensile strength and a higher yield.Austenitic steel is mostly used for industrial pipings and architectural projects as reinforcement bars due to their high ductility, nonmagnetic nature, and large scale of service temperature. It is classified into various grades in different countries according to the proportion of elements present in it.

Duplex Stainless Or Austenitic-Ferritic Stainless Steel Rebar

An amazing combination of ferritic and austenitic steels, duplex stainless steels are stronger than both the types and is extensively used in the underwater oil industry. This is due to its high corrosion resistance capabilities that allow it to withstand extremely corrosive saltwater for extended periods.Rebar is a primary application for this steel. The blend of Austenitic and Ferritic stainless steels has provided an exceptional element of strength and corrosion resistance which has made it suitable for various rebar applications like bridge decks, barrier and retaining walls, anchoring systems and dowels, chemical plant infrastructure, coastal piers and wharves, bridge parapets, sidewalks and bridge pilings.Duplex Stainless Steel has lower nickel content as compared to Austenitic steels which makes them less expensive. This steel is also classified into different grades.

How does stainless work?

Essentially, stainless steel rebar provides a significant increase in concrete structure durability. This has the effect of extending the service life of structures to 100+ years without major repair due to the unique chemistry containing a mix of over 30% of alloys formulated to resist chloride corrosion.

Because it is “stainless”, the corrosion resistance is proven to be “orders of magnitude” better than the next best rebar product, such as coated bars or uncoated facsimiles.

There are benefits. Given its exceptional corrosion resistance, there are significant benefits that flow back to the Owner by specifying stainless steel:

• Lowest Life Cycle Cost – Due to a longer service life without major concrete repairs
• Cost Reduction – Due to a dramatic reduction in maintenance costs, elimination of redundant protection mechanisms such as excess concrete cover, membranes, and concrete additives, higher strength steel and shorter splice lengths than coated bars means less steel usage
• Lighter & Cheaper Structures – Less concrete cover can lighten the support structures reducing initial cost
• Less Earthquake Impact – Reduced cover means lighter structures are more earthquake resistant, less costly
