Concrete reinforcing steel, quality Β500C, of high strength and ductility, certified by ELOT 1421-3. The product is
available in coils. The rod diameters range from 8 up to 16mm and in spooled coils at diameters from 8 to 12mm.
The new innovative product ensures both better anchoring of steel to concrete and several additional advantages,
via the addition of two longitudinal ribs to the two mandatory ones [as per reg. ELOT 1421.3 (ELOT EN 10080)
requirements] along with the distinct series of lateral/ transversal ribs (as per reg. B500C requirements regarding
recognition and identification).
The existence of four longitudinal ribs provides geometrical symmetry with respect to the horizontal and vertical axis
and optimises the alignment and bending characteristics during the process of construction and forming of steel cage
stirups with automatic machines.As a result, the shaped fastener remains “flat” and ready for use without any additional
intervention or correction, resulting in a better product.
