Full details

These high-grade steel bars excel in harsh, corrosive environments due to their superior corrosion resistance, though users should note that they require manual cutting to size on-site to meet specific project dimensions.

FAQs

Are these bars suitable for coastal areas?

Yes, they are designed for external use and environments with moderate salt atmospheres.

Can I use these with standard metric nuts?

Yes, these bars follow the DIN 975 standard, meaning they are compatible with standard metric fixings.

What is the significance of the green ends?

The green ends are for easy grade identification, ensuring you have the correct specification for your application.

Do I need special tools to cut these bars?

A standard hacksaw or a power angle grinder with a metal-cutting disc is sufficient.

Can these be used with chemical resin?

Yes, they are highly effective when installed with chemical resin for secure, heavy-duty anchoring.

Troubleshooting

Nut does not thread onto the bar easily

Check for burrs or damage at the cut end of the bar; file the edge smooth to restore the thread profile.

Bar rotates when tightening hardware

Ensure the anchoring mechanism (drop-in anchor or resin) has fully cured; use a wrench to hold the bar firmly while tightening the nut.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High resistance to corrosion for outdoor use
  • Easy identification with green end marking
  • Compatible with standard metric fixings
  • Suitable for use with chemical resin for high-strength bonding

Cons

  • Requires manual cutting to length
  • Heavier than non-metallic alternatives
  • Requires specific tools for precise shortening

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For installation, ensure you are using compatible metric nuts and washers that match the thread diameter of your specific TIMCO bar. When installing with chemical resin, follow the specific cure time instructions provided by the resin manufacturer before applying a load. To maintain the integrity of the corrosion-resistant coating, avoid using abrasive cleaners that could strip the finish. If the bars are stored in a site workshop, keep them in a dry environment to prevent premature surface oxidation of the cut ends, and consider applying a cold-galvanizing spray to any exposed metal after cutting to preserve the product's lifespan.
