ASTM-A-706

(American Standards Testing & Materials)

With unique characteristics ASTM A 706 is a Steel Bar being used in numerous high rise structures in the country. The greater amount of Elongation than ASTM 615-A and Wieldable option give it a competitive advantage over normal Steel Bars.

 

DEFORMED STEEL BARS – GRADE 60                                3/8" – 1.5" OR 9mm – 40mm

DEFORMED STEEL BARS – GRADE 80                                3/8" – 1.5" OR 9mm – 40mm
