Frequently Asked Questions
The numbers in the different grades of TMT Bars (Fe-415, Fe-500, etc.) imply the amount of stress that the bars can withstand before they start to deform. For instance, TMT Bar Fe-500 would deform at a pressure of 550 Newton/mm2.
Billets are a semi-finished product that is extensively used in rolling mills to produce bars, wire rods, and structural steel. They are also used in machine and forge shops where engineering goods are produced.
- Comparatively best earthquake resistant because of its high tensile strength and flexibility.
- It is less affected by rust, corrosion resistant
- Exact weight and chemical composition
- It has more strength to sustain fire.
- It bonds strongly with cement than other reinforcement bars.
- Better ductility and bendability
Apex TMT bars are manufactured in a world class state-of-the-art rolling mill, ensuring excellent yield strength exceeding the values mentioned in the standard BIS. The Steel consumption depends on the strength of the bar. Higher the strength, lower will be the consumption.
Because it is very strong, ductile and economical.
An advanced laboratory equipped with Spectrometer, Universal Tensile Strength Machine and Microscope etc functions at Apex to ensure high grade of products.
Higher strength and more ductility.
Thermo Mechanical Processing, also known as Thermo-Mechanical Treatment (TMT), is a metallurgical process that integrates work hardening and heat treatment into a single process.
| TMT Size | TMT Rods per bundle | TMT Weight per bundle |
|---|---|---|
8mm | 10 | 47 Kg |
10mm | 7 | 53 Kg |
12mm | 5 | 53.4 Kg |
16mm | 3 | 56.88 Kg |
20mm | 2 | 59.2 Kg |
25mm | 1 | 46.2 Kg |
32mm | 1 | 75.72 Kg |
The weight of the steel can be checked using the weighbridge and at Apex we issue the weighbridge certificate at dispatch of each load
