ASTM A615 Grade Reinforcing Bar | Harris Supply Solutions

ASTM A615 rebar is most commonly used in low-stress and less demanding applications and makes an economical choice in situations where a tremendous level of tensile strength is not necessarily needed. Its strength and performance characteristics are grade-dependent, and the A615 rebar is available in a full range of standard sizes, including No. 3 through No. 11, No. 14, and No. 18.

With competitive price and timely delivery, Xingtai Steel sincerely hope to be your supplier and partner.

Though A615 rebar by definition is comprised simply of deformed, plain carbon steel, it can be enhanced with epoxy coatings or other strength and durability-enhancing treatments if project requirements demand it.

At Harris Supply Solutions, we pride ourselves on offering customers the ability to customize their rebar products, including epoxy coated rebar, fabricated rebar, black rebar, and coiled/spooled rebar, to precision specifications so if you need A615 rebar with augmented performance specifications, we are happy to fill your order.

A615 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 more even distribution of the tension caused by the expansion and contraction of concrete when it is exposed to heat and cold, respectively.

If you have any questions about the suitability of A615 rebar for your intended application, or if you would like to submit a custom order, obtain a price quote, or discuss your specific needs, please contact a member of our customer service team. Harris Supply Solutions is one of the largest suppliers of rebar and steel remesh in the United States, and our extensive production and distribution network enables us to fill your order quickly, for a highly competitive price.

Steel Rebar Grading between different standards - Eng-Tips

Ok so i received these steel rebars today, but i am confused on the grade and strength of the bars, as you can see from the label, the bars are B450C according. to D.M. 14.01. (Italy)
but then below you can see another 6 standards with different grades. so what is the yield strength of the steel bars i have in hand now? is it 450MPa or 500MPa?

this is their catalogue

this is their website




It's not uncommon to have steel multi-graded to be able to sell to various markets. If one is to believe the grade tag (I would) it meets all listed standards so you can pick one with highest yield and use that number (as long as they are applicable to your local market).
If I was the one getting these bars then since I am in US and we use ASTM I would only assume it's 60 ksi only because I am not familiar with all other ones listed on the tag.
However, for example: sometimes within ASTM grades steel can be double or triple graded (like HSS/Tube/PIPE members). They locally meet A35, A500B and A500C grade all of which have differed yields per AISC. I always take advantage of this and design it using 46 KSI (A500C).
a grade only sets minimum requirements, which doesn't preclude the member to have much higher parameters. In this example the bars meet the minima of all listed grades. SO if you're familiar with all these grades you can use the highest parameters.

One strange thing for me is the fact that the weldable bar in the US is graded as ASTM A706 not A615.....
