10mm High Tensile Steel Reinforcement Bar (Rebar) for Concrete 3000mm

What Is 10mm Rebar? 

With a heritage of unparalleled strength and durability, the 10mm High Tensile Steel Rebar stands as a titan in the realm of construction materials. 

The 10mm Rebar is constructed primarily from carbon steel, a material recognised for its exceptional strength and durability. This makes the rebar resilient to adverse weather conditions, rust, and other environmental factors, promising longevity in its structural support.

This high tensile rebar (reinforcing bar) is used predominantly as a tensioning device in reinforced concrete and reinforced masonry structures, holding them firmly in compression. 

The 10mm diameter ensures superior tensile strength, allowing it to withstand substantial pressure without deformation or breakage.

Adding to its uniqueness, the 10mm Rebar features ridges, a feature which denotes the bar with its commonly used alter-name: deformed bar. These ridges increase the rebar's grip within the concrete, enhancing the mechanical anchoring and reducing the risk of displacement or movement, thus ensuring a more secure and stable construction.

10mm Rebar Key Features & Benefits

• Utilised as a tension device to strengthen concrete structures
• Offers high tensile reinforcement
• Concrete adheres to the bar to create a stable and bonded structure
• Can be welded before concrete is poured
  
  

10mm Reinforcing Bar Applications

10mm rebar is commonly utilised in various construction projects where moderate reinforcement is required. It finds extensive use in smaller-scale domestic tasks such as patio or driveway construction, providing the necessary support and stability for these structures. 

That being said, 10mm rebar (provided it is high tensile strength) can be employed in projects involving the construction of walls or columns where higher load-bearing capacity and tensile strength are essential.

Predominantly, 10mm rebar is used in reinforced concrete and reinforced masonry structures such as:

• Beams
• Slabs
• Floors 
• Bridges 
  
  

How 10mm Rebar Works

While concrete exhibits high compressive strength, it can be prone to weakness under tension and is overall, quite a brittle material. By incorporating a reinforcing bar during the concrete pouring process, the tensile strength of the overall building project will be significantly enhanced.

The reinforcement process of concrete slabs sees rebars applied across the length and width of the slab at regular intervals.

Cutting 10mm Steel Bar

10mm rebar can be cut to the desired size with reciprocating saws with either a bi-metal or diamond grit blade. 

Due to rebar's tough composition, cutting should only be attempted with the appropriate cutting tools, equipment and PPE. 

Which Applications Require Reinforcement? 

To put it simply, any structural concrete application that demands a high degree of load-bearing should be reinforced. Let's outline a few examples below: 

• Footings
• Foundations 
• Slabs 
• Columns
