Steel Rebar – Complete Guide to Specifications, Grades, Applications & Export Supply

Introduction

Steel rebar, also known as reinforcing bar, is a hot-rolled ribbed steel product specially designed for concrete reinforcement. As the most critical building material in civil engineering and infrastructure projects, steel rebar effectively enhances the tensile strength, stability and durability of concrete structures.

With high ductility, strong seismic resistance, excellent bonding force with concrete and stable mechanical performance, steel rebar is widely used in residential buildings, commercial construction, road infrastructure, bridge engineering, dam projects and industrial factory construction.

We supply full-size standard steel rebar compliant with GB, BS, ASTM and ISO international standards, supporting global export, bulk wholesale and customized service.

Main Types of Steel Rebar

1. Ribbed Steel Rebar (Deformed Rebar)

Deformed rebar with continuous spiral ribs on the surface provides strong friction and adhesion with concrete. It prevents structural cracking and improves building safety. This is the mainstream type for modern construction projects.

2. Plain Round Rebar

Smooth surface round steel bar, mainly used for minor reinforcement, mesh welding and secondary structural stabilization.

3. Low Alloy High-Strength Rebar

High-strength rebar with optimized alloy composition, suitable for high-rise buildings, long-span bridges and seismic-grade key projects.

Standard Grades & International Standards

Our export steel rebar strictly follows global mainstream standards to meet different country construction codes:

- Chinese GB Standard: HRB400, HRB500

- British BS Standard: BS4449 B500B

- American ASTM Standard: ASTM A615 Grade 40 / 60

- International ISO Standard: Fe500

HRB400 is the most universal grade for conventional construction.

HRB500 high-strength rebar is widely adopted for high-standard seismic projects and large-scale infrastructure.

Common Specifications

- Diameter: 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm, 20mm, 22mm, 25mm, 28mm, 32mm

- Standard length: 9 meters / 12 meters

- Custom fixed-length cutting available

- Straight bar & coil rebar available

Core Advantages of Steel Rebar

1. Excellent Structural Reinforcement Performance

Ribbed surface design greatly increases binding force with concrete, effectively resisting tension, pressure and structural deformation.

2. Strong Seismic & Crack Resistance

Uniform material texture, good ductility and stable mechanical indexes improve building seismic performance and extend structural service life.

3. Stable Welding & Bending Performance

Steel rebar supports cutting, bending, welding and mesh fabrication, convenient for on-site construction and structural customization.

4. High Cost Performance

Reliable quality, reasonable price and wide applicability make steel rebar the most cost-effective reinforcement material for global infrastructure.

Main Application Fields

- High-rise residential and commercial building construction

- Highway, railway and bridge engineering reinforcement

- Airport, port and municipal infrastructure projects

- Water conservancy dams, tunnels and underground engineering
