| Product Name | Steel Round Bars for Construction | Hot-rolled or cold-drawn solid circular steel bars used in structural and civil engineering applications |
| Material Grade | ASTM A36 / S235JR / SS400 / Q235B / HRB400 | International equivalent grades: EN 1.0038 (S235JR), JIS G3101 SS400, GB/T 700 Q235B, GB/T 1499 HRB400 |
| Standard Compliance | ASTM A36, EN 10025-2, JIS G3101, GB/T 700, GB/T 1499 | Meets international structural steel and reinforcing bar standards for construction use |
| Chemical Composition (C) | ≤ 0.26% (A36) / ≤ 0.17% (S235JR) | Carbon content controls hardness and weldability of the bar |
| Chemical Composition (Mn) | ≤ 1.60% (A36) / ≤ 1.40% (S235JR) | Manganese enhances tensile strength and hardenability |
| Chemical Composition (P & S) | P ≤ 0.04%, S ≤ 0.05% | Low phosphorus and sulfur content ensures improved toughness and weldability |
| Chemical Composition (Si) | ≤ 0.40% | Silicon acts as a deoxidizer and improves strength |
| Tensile Strength | 400–550 MPa (A36: 400–550 MPa; S235JR: 360–510 MPa) | Per ASTM A36 and EN 10025-2; ensures structural load-bearing capacity |
| Yield Strength | ≥ 235 MPa (S235JR) / ≥ 250 MPa (A36) | Minimum yield point as specified in respective standards for structural integrity |
| Elongation | ≥ 20% (A36) / ≥ 26% (S235JR) | Measured on gauge length of 200 mm (A36) or 80 mm (EN); indicates ductility |
| Diameter Range | 6 mm – 300 mm | Common construction sizes: Ø6, Ø8, Ø10, Ø12, Ø16, Ø20, Ø25, Ø32, Ø40, Ø50 mm and above |
| Length | 3 m – 12 m (standard) / custom cut-to-length available | Standard mill lengths; random or fixed lengths per customer requirement |
| Surface Finish | Hot-rolled (black), pickled & oiled, cold-drawn bright, or galvanized | Surface condition selected based on application environment and corrosion protection needs |
| Application | Structural frameworks, concrete reinforcement, columns, beams, anchor bolts, machinery bases | Widely used in building construction, bridges, infrastructure, and industrial fabrication |
| Certification | ISO 9001, CE Marking, Mill Test Certificate (EN 10204 3.1/3.2), BV, SGS | Third-party inspection and material traceability documentation available upon request |
| Packaging | Bundled in hexagonal or square bundles, 1–3 MT per bundle; wrapped with steel strapping | Seaworthy export packaging available; wooden dunnage and waterproof wrapping for ocean freight |
| MOQ | 5 Metric Tons per grade/size | Mixed grades and sizes accepted for full container load (FCL) orders; sample orders negotiable |
On our first order of 10 tonnes of hot-rolled round bars in 90 mm diameter to ASTM A36, our incoming inspection found that roughly 5% of bars measured 89.3 mm — just outside our acceptable tolerance window. We raised the issue immediately. The supplier's technical team responded within 24 hours, acknowledged the variance, and arranged a partial replacement shipment at no additional freight cost within 12 days. MTC data for the replacement batch was clean. Communication throughout was professional. We have since placed a second, larger order and quality has been fully satisfactory.
