High tensile Steel bars for reinforced concrete armatures used in the production of electricity pylons and lamp posts. The high tensile Steel bars are manufactured by hot rolling of steel. Produced as straight bars, the steel is crenellated to guarantee perfect adhesion to concrete. The chemical characteristics of these steel bars offers mechanical properties superior to those produced in conventional rolling mills.

Example of high tensile deformed steel bar is Y10, Y12, Y14 Y16, Y18, Y20, Y25, and Y32.the number of behind Y more bigger mean the diameter of the HTD Steel bar thickness.
Y10 and Y12 is the most common HTD steel bar is use to build general furniture small or medium size building.
Up to Y16, Y18 Y20 and Y 25 is suitable for apartment, Huge building office, and Factory.
