Wiking® Super B Rebar
BASALT REBARS• Made of 100% crushed Basalt, a type of volcanic rock
• The rock is melted at 1600°C, spun, and then extruded
• The Basalt rebars are sanded and profiled for better adhesion in concrete, reaching a 16MPa bond stress
• Naturally resistant to external influences
• Produced in a variety of diameters to meet customer requirements
ADVANTAGES
• Resistant to extreme temperatures
• Four times the strength of steel at a quarter of the weight
• Non-corrosive
• Does not need to be removed before recycling or disposal since it is completely natural
• Reduce concrete cost: the Basalt rebar has a thermal expansion coefficient similar to concrete which means the thickness of the concrete can be reduced
• Light weight: 10 times less mass per longitudinal meter of rebar allows for a reduction in the use of vehicles and cranes
