TMT Bars FAQ
KNOW IN DETAILS ABOUT TMT BARS
What is TMT Bars?
TMT Bars are thermo-mechanically-treated through leading world's best
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.
What are the Advantages of using TMT
Bars in construction?
Enhanced strength combined with high ductility
Excellent weld ability without loss of strength at welded joints
Better ductility and malleability
Earthquake resistant
High thermal resistance
Significant savings in cost of steel
What are the types of TMT bars?
There are 11 grades in TMT Bar. However, commonly used grades are Fe-
500, Fe- 550, Fe- 500 D and Fe- 550 D. Fe- 550 is the strongest among
these. Kamdhenu has the credit of manufacturing Fe - 550 grade Bar first
time in India. These grades of Kamdhenu Bar come at 8 mm to 25 mm
range, 28 & 32 mm range also.

What is the difference between primary
and secondary TMT bars?
Using iron ore, primary TMT bars are produced. Steel scrap is the
primary raw material used to make secondary TMT bars.
Although the strength of both steel bars can be the same, primary
steel has less impurities than secondary steel.
Compared to secondary steel, primary steel TMT bars are more
ductile, fire-resistant, and wieldable.
What is the lifespan of TMT steel
?
TMT steel bars are known to have a longer life than regular steel bars.
The quality of the structure, the materials used, the type of structure,
and many other factors affect the actual service life of TMT steel.
Is TMT steel earthquake resistant?
Yes, one of the best things about TMT steel bars is that they
are earthquake resistant, withstand high impacts and
minimize damage from super impacts.
What is the length of a TMT steel bar?
Commercially TMT bars comes in following length:
8 mm
10 mm
12 mm
16 mm
20 mm
25 mm
28 mm
32 mm
