FAQS

Certainly. We provide direct delivery of rebar fabrication materials to job sites using flatbed trailers. Customers should arrange for offloading the materials upon arrival.

Each rebar bundle is shipped with bar tags that provide crucial information. These tags include details such as the number of pieces, order number, size, length, grade, and company name. This system ensures easy identification and organization on the job site.

Generally, surface rust on rebar is acceptable for installation. However, if the rust causes the bar to flake easily, reduces its weight, or diminishes the height of its deformations below ASTM standards, it's considered harmful. In such cases, new rebar should be used.

Indeed, rebar comes in various types. The most common are black steel and epoxy coated. For specific conditions requiring high corrosion resistance, specialty types like stainless steel, fiberglass, and galvanized steel are available.

Bolsinger Rebar Inc stocks grades 40, 60, and 100 rebar. We can also source other grades upon request to meet specific project requirements.

Fabricated rebar refers to rebar that's pre-cut or bent to precise specifications. Our team at Bolsinger Rebar Inc can deliver custom-fabricated rebar to suit your specific job site needs. We also offer on-site fabrication services for added convenience.

Welding epoxy coated steel is not recommended. The epoxy coating is designed to enhance corrosion resistance, and any cutting, grinding, or welding would damage this protective layer, leaving the rebar vulnerable to corrosion.

Epoxy coated rebar offers significant corrosion resistance advantages. Based on our experience, it's approximately 40 to 50 times more resistant to corrosion compared to standard black steel rebar.

Stainless steel rebar provides superior corrosion resistance due to its chemical properties. Our experience indicates it's 800 to 1,500 times more corrosion resistant than standard black steel. However, this enhanced protection comes at a significantly higher cost, limiting its use to extreme corrosive environments such as marine or chemical settings.

Fiberglass rebar's main advantage is its non-metallic composition, which makes it immune to corrosion. However, it can't be modified on-site and must be ordered from the factory in the required configuration. Our experts can assist you in placing the correct order for your project needs.
