Corrosion Resistance of TMT Bars
Saluja Gold TMT: The Ultimate Corrosion-Resistant TMT Bars
Construction projects demand high-quality materials to ensure longevity and safety. One major challenge that builders face is corrosion, which weakens structures over time. Saluja Gold TMT bars are engineered with superior corrosion resistance, making them the ideal choice for long-lasting constructions.
What Makes TMT Bars Corrosion-Resistant?
TMT (Thermo-Mechanically Treated) bars undergo a specialized process that enhances their strength, ductility, and resistance to environmental damage. The key factors that contribute to corrosion resistance include:
- Advanced thermo-mechanical treatment
- Protective coatings
- High-quality raw materials
- Stringent quality control measures
Corrosion in Construction
Why Corrosion is a Major Concern
Corrosion weakens the structural integrity of buildings, leading to costly repairs and safety hazards. Factors that accelerate corrosion include moisture, salt, and environmental pollutants.
Effects of Corrosion on Structures
- Reduced load-bearing capacity
- Cracking and spalling of concrete
- Increased maintenance costs
- Shortened lifespan of buildings
Saluja Gold TMT Features
Unique Anti-Corrosion Properties
These bars are manufactured using:
- Low carbon content – Enhances weldability and corrosion resistance
- Copper, Chromium, and Phosphorus alloying – Prevents rust formation
- Epoxy or zinc coatings – Acts as an additional protective layer
Manufacturing Process
The process involves three key stages:
- Quenching: Rapid cooling to form a hard outer layer
- Self-Tempering: Heat from the core strengthens the outer layer
- Atmospheric Cooling: Achieves the perfect balance of strength and flexibility
Testing and Standards
Saluja Gold TMT bars comply with:
- Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS)
- ISO 9001:2015 certification
How Saluja Gold TMT Bars Are Tested for Corrosion
Each batch undergoes:
- Salt spray tests
