ASTM A615 Reinforcing Bar Grade 60

Steel Rebar：

Steel bars are steel used for reinforced concrete and prestressed reinforced concrete,

with a circular cross-section and sometimes a square shape with rounded corners.

ASTM A615 Reinforcing Bar Grade 60

ASTM A615 is a deformed steel standard categorized under American standards. These are generally available in diameter between 9.5 mm and 43 mm, and length between 6 m and 12 m. Generally, the steel bars that fall under this standard are under deformed or plain carbon steel. 

ASTM A615 Reinforcing Bar Grade 60 Description

ASTM A615 steel rebar increases the tensile strength of concrete and can be used for both primary and secondary reinforcement. It helps absorb stress and weight and facilitates the even distribution of the tension caused by the expansion and contraction of concrete when it is exposed to heat and cold, respectively. ASTM A615 steel rebar has a rough, blue-grey finish with raised ribs throughout the bar. ASTM A615 grade 60 steel rebar offers enhanced yield strength of at least 60 thousand pounds per square inch, or 420 megapascals on the metric grading scale. It also features a continuous line system, with one line running along the length of the bar which is offset a minimum of five spaces from the center. These characteristics make Grade 60 Steel rebar particularly well-suited for medium to heavy-duty concrete reinforcement applications.
