From the mid-2000s to the early 2010s, SteelAsia expanded its reinforcing bar production capacity; from producing 279,000 tons of rebar in 2006 to 1.2 million tons in 2013, securing almost half of the rebar market share in the Philippines. [8] In 2014, it began operations of two steel mills in Mindanao, to serve the Mindanao region. [9]
There are four types of materials available: O-1 tool steel, A-2 tool steel, A-6 tool steel, and 1018 steel (low-carbon or low-carb steel). Lengths are either 18 or 36 in (457 or 914 mm) long, various widths up to 16 in (406 mm) are available, and thicknesses range from 1 ⁄ 64 to 2.875 in (0.40 to 73.03 mm).
[1] [2] These types of sections are cold-formed from steel sheet, strip, plate, or flat bar in roll forming machines, by press brake (machine press) or bending operations. The material thicknesses for such thin-walled steel members usually range from 0.0147 in. (0.373 mm) to about ¼ in. (6.35 mm).
