Description
Our Basalt Rebar is a form of non-metallic reinforcement, suited to concrete due to its natural resistance to alkaline, acidic and other corrosive environments. Basalt rebar is a high-strength and durable basalt fibre bar with a diameter of 8mm.
This reinforcement is produced in straight lengths at 2.5m in length.
The use of Basalt Rebar composite reinforcement increases the lifetime of concrete structures as it is unaffected by the presence of chlorides and carbonation. In fact, research suggests the carbonation process will improve the strength of the concrete in the long term.
High tensile strength (1200 MPa)
Low density (2.0g / cm3)
Low thermal conductivity (0.46W / m2)
Absolute environmental and fire safety
Basalt Rebar composite reinforcement has undergone physical and mechanical tests at various universities around the world and is certified against ASTM D7957 – currently the only standard for the use of FRP in reinforced concrete.
