Description

Rebar A1 (Smooth without Ribs) – Ductile Reinforcing Steel Supplier from Iran

Rebar A1, also known as smooth reinforcing steel or Class S240, represents the most fundamental and ductile grade of reinforcing steel used in construction. Unlike ribbed rebars such as A2, A3, or A4, A1 Rebar features a completely smooth surface without any tread or ribs. This design makes it the best option for bending, welding, and forging applications where flexibility and ease of manipulation are critical.

With a yield strength of 240 MPa and a tensile strength of 360 MPa, Rebar A1 offers a dependable balance between ductility and mechanical performance. The relatively low carbon content allows this steel to be easily shaped and joined without compromising strength, making it ideal for applications that require custom forming and fabrication.

At Call2Supply, we proudly supply and export A1 Rebar from Iran, partnering with top domestic producers such as Amir Kabir Khazar Steel, Khorasan Steel Complex, Esfahan Steel Company, Mianeh Steel, and Bafgh Yazd Steel. Through a reliable logistics network and strict quality control, we deliver reinforcing bars that meet international S240 standards and are trusted in projects across the Middle East, Asia, and Europe.

Detailed Characteristics and Structural Advantages

Rebar A1 is defined by its smooth surface and high ductility. The absence of ribs allows for superior formability, meaning the steel can be bent or reshaped multiple times without cracking. Its metallurgical composition — featuring low carbon and manganese content — ensures high weldability, making it compatible with gas or electric arc welding methods.

This grade is commonly used in lightweight structural components, tie elements, and decorative reinforcement, where strength is important but not the primary factor. Because it can be welded and forged easily, Rebar A1 is also widely utilized in custom reinforcement meshes, stirrups, and anchor hooks in reinforced concrete structures.

From a structural perspective, A1 Rebar serves as an essential element in improving the ductility of reinforced concrete systems. When combined with higher grades like A2 or A3, it allows for flexible yet strong reinforcement, optimizing both cost and mechanical stability.

Key Characteristics and Benefits

• Smooth Surface and Easy Fabrication: Simplifies bending, cutting, and welding operations without surface cracking.

• Excellent Ductility: Low carbon steel composition ensures elasticity and resilience under load.

• High Weldability: Suitable for spot and arc welding applications, ideal for fabricating reinforcement assemblies.

• Moderate Strength Profile: Yield strength of 240 MPa and tensile strength of 360 MPa make it suitable for light-to-medium reinforcement.

• Versatile Use Cases: Perfect for stirrups, ties, hooks, and secondary structural reinforcement.

• Reliable Performance: Consistent metallurgical quality ensures long-term stability in concrete structures.

• Ease of Handling and Storage: Smooth surface prevents damage during transport and simplifies onsite handling.

Optimal Application Methods

Cutting and Bending:
Rebar A1 can be easily bent manually or by machine due to its soft and ductile texture. It is ideal for creating custom reinforcement shapes.

Welding Operations:
Thanks to its low carbon content, welding A1 Rebar does not require preheating and results in strong, clean joints.

Forging and Shaping:
This rebar type is particularly well-suited for forging, deformation, and mechanical shaping under heat, maintaining its ductility.

Storage Recommendations:
Store rebars in a dry, covered area to prevent oxidation before concrete casting or welding.
