Real TMT

REAL TMT

Real TMT bars are widely used in everyday use concrete reinforcement structures, skyscrapers, bridges and flyovers, dams, thermal and hydel power plants, industrial structures, underground platforms in metro railway and rapid transport system. TMT Bars are thermo-mechanically-treated through leading world tempcore based technology for high yield strength. The process involves rapid quenching of the hot bars through a series of water jets after they roll out of the last mill stand. The bars are cooled, allowing the core and surface temperatures to equalize. The bar core cools down slowly to turn into a ferrite-pearlite aggregate.

Size

6mm

It is generally used in slabs and stairs which serve as load-bearing members in slab homes.

8mm

It is generally used in slabs and stairs which serve as load-bearing members in slab homes.

10mm

It is generally used in slabs and stairs which serve as load-bearing members in slab homes

12mm

It is used in beams and columns to make them withstand external loads.

TMT Iron Rod in Lagos

20mm

It is as well used in beams and columns to make them withstand external loads

25mm

It is mostly used in beams and columns. This makes them stand under the weight of external loads.

32mm

It is mostly used in construction of very complex projects such as dams, bridges, tunnels, airports, etc.

40mm

It is mostly used in construction of very complex projects such as dams, bridges, tunnels, airports, etc.
