Cold Rolled Steel Bar
Cold rolled steel is produced by a rolling metal forming process where the metal stock passes through one or more pairs of rolls to provide uniformity and reduce the thickness of the metal. If the temperature of the metal being rolled is below its recrystallization temperature, the process is called cold rolling.
WHAT IS STEEL WIRE ROD USED FOR
Wire rod is a rolled steel product (alloy or non-alloy) made from semi-finished steel in rectangular, round, hexagonal or square shapes. Fine cross-sections are obtained in particular by continuous cold drawing. The wire rod is wound on a coil and delivered in this form.
Wire rod Uses
Steel wire can be used in a variety of products, depending on its shape and treatment. The main uses are in the manufacture of:
Wire mesh,
Nails
Springs
Reinforcement wire
Barbed wire
Wire rope
Welded wire mesh.
Wire Rod Shapes and Sizes
Steel wire is a finished product that is cold formed before processing. Although shapes vary, most are produced in coils. Diameters are typically between 5 and 15 mm, and most conform to ISO standards, so sizes can easily be increased in increments of 1 mm to 20 mm.
Welded Wire Mesh For Concrete Slabs
Welded wire mesh for concrete slabs is a heavy duty welded wire mesh product widely used in concrete, construction and buildings. Cracks or soft ground in concrete reinforcement products are used to reinforce foundations. Arrays of resistance-welded mesh sheets bonded in a manner perpendicular to the intersections form horizontal and vertical lines.
Advantages
Wide range of diameters (from 3 mm to 5 mm).
More economical in terms of reinforcement due to the high strength of cold-drawn steel wires.
Saves time and money.
Robust welded joints.
Uniform spacing of wires.
Equal possibilities to conventional reinforcement
Applications
Panels for structural flat or girder construction.
Large floor slabs on floors, sidewalks, airport runways, and station aprons to achieve a seamless, jointless surface.
Concrete elements with curved or complex shapes such as arches, domes and lotus petals.
Thinner or difficult to reinforce precast elements such as curved arch flat elements, hyperbolic parabolic shells, folded plate roof beams, fins.
Welded Wire Concrete Reinforcement
Welded wire concrete reinforcement is made of steel bars arranged in two mutually perpendicular directions and connected by resistance spot welding. Reinforcing mesh is used to add structural strength to reinforced concrete structures and asphalt. Creating internal frame reinforcement for concrete structures can provide a high level of performance.
Applications
Construction. Welded reinforcing mesh is widely used for the reinforcement of concrete structures. In this case, welded reinforcing mesh is laid inside the poured concrete formwork (under the slab, poured frame foundation slab) and is used to increase the strength of the formed concrete structure.
Fabrication of frames.
Reinforcement of road surfaces or parking lots, so welded reinforcing mesh is called road reinforcing mesh (5-6 mm).
Manufacture of various fences.
Used as masonry mesh (3-4 mm wire).
Used as coal mine support mesh for coal mine tunnel support.
Reinforced Mesh Sheets
Reinforcing mesh sheets, also known as reinforcing mesh or welded wire mesh, is a precast panel made of steel wires arranged in a grid pattern. It acts as an internal skeleton for concrete, designed to increase its strength and prevent cracking.
Reinforcing mesh sheets help distribute stresses evenly throughout the concrete, reducing the risk of cracking, deformation and structural damage. It also helps to control shrinkage and cracking during the curing process, improving the overall quality and service life of the concrete structure.
Reinforcing mesh sheets are mainly used in the construction industry to reinforce concrete structures and improve their durability, stability and load-bearing capacity. Reinforcing bars are embedded in concrete elements such as slabs, walls, columns and foundations to provide additional support and resistance to tensile forces such as bending, shear and temperature changes.
Main features of steel wire mesh
Strength Enhancement - The primary use of steel wire mesh is to reinforce concrete structures, increasing their tensile strength and preventing cracking and structural damage. By distributing the load more evenly throughout the concrete, steel mesh enhances the overall strength and durability of the structure.
Versatile - can be used in construction, industrial, commercial and even residential applications.
Crack Control: reinforcing mesh helps control concrete cracking by providing support and reinforcement in areas susceptible to pressure and tension. This helps maintain structural integrity over time and reduces the need for costly repairs.
Structural Stability: By reinforcing concrete slabs, walls and foundations, wire mesh improves the structural stability of buildings and infrastructure. It helps prevent sagging, sinking and shifting, ensuring that structures remain stable and safe.
Flexibility: Reinforcing wire mesh is available in a wide range of sizes, shapes and configurations to meet different construction requirements.
Cost-effective: Although the initial cost of reinforcing mesh is high, long-term cost savings can be realized by reducing maintenance and repair needs.
Concrete Mesh Panels
Concrete Mesh Panels is a versatile reinforcement product used in a wide range of applications. It is primarily used as a reinforcing fabric in concrete slabs; it is immersed in concrete to greatly increase the structural stiffness of a building. The coefficient of thermal expansion of steel mesh fabric is similar to that of concrete, which means that as temperatures fluctuate, both the concrete and the reinforcement embedded in it expand and contract at similar rates. This makes it an ideal material to help reinforce concrete structures.

Foundation Reinforcement Mesh
Masonry Reinforcement Mesh
Floor Reinforcement Mesh
Reinforcing Mesh for Road Works
Trench Mesh
Brick Wall Reinforcing Mesh
