FE 550D TMT Bars

Major Features and Benefits

1. High Yield Strength: FE 550D TMT bars provide a minimum yield strength of 550 megapascals, making them capable of supporting heavy loads and stresses. This makes them ideal for structures requiring robust reinforcement.
2. Enhanced Ductility: The ‘D’ in 550D stands for ductility. These bars can withstand high levels of bending and re-bending without cracking, which is crucial for high-stress applications and seismic resistance.
3. Corrosion Resistance: FE 550D bars typically undergo a controlled water-cooling process after heating, which not only imparts strength but also helps in resisting rust and corrosion more effectively than non-TMT bars.
4. Thermal Resistance: These bars are capable of withstanding high temperatures, making them suitable for structures exposed to intense heat, such as industrial furnaces or fire-prone areas.
5. Safety and Stability: The combination of high strength and ductility enhances the safety and stability of structures, particularly in earthquake-prone areas where flexibility and strength are paramount.
6. Longevity: Structures built with FE 550D TMT bars benefit from their increased lifespan due to the bars’ inherent resistance to environmental factors that typically degrade steel, such as moisture and corrosive chemicals.
7. Cost Efficiency: While the initial cost might be higher than less durable materials, the long-term savings on maintenance and replacement make FE 550D TMA bars a cost-effective solution.
8. Reduced Construction Time: The excellent weldability and bendability reduce construction time and labor costs, as they are easier to handle and install compared to traditional bars.
9. Sustainability: FE 550D TMT bars are often made from recycled materials and are themselves fully recyclable, contributing to environmental sustainability in construction practices.
