V-Rod 50 Fiberglass Rebar
Features and Benefits
Compared to conventional steel rebar, composite rebar is perfectly suited for concrete structures, that are:
- Subjected to corrosive agents as de-icing salts
- In need for electrical and/or magnetic neutrality
- Used as marine structures in salt water or in coastal areas
In contrast to traditional steel reinforcing, V-ROD glass fiber rebar has other benefits including:
- Corrosion proof even in the harshest environments
- Lightweight and easier to handle and transport
- High tensile strength that outperforms traditional black steel
- Superior crack control
- Reduction of concrete cover
- Will not stain the concrete
- Increased life span of structure
V-ROD ensures that you receive products free of imperfections, defects, and significant variations through a strict and consistent monitoring of measurable and verifiable standards to achieve consistency in the products supplied while meeting each customer’s specific requirements on every shipment.
Through routine sampling, our quality control process ensures that our products meet customer specifications and are within the prescribed limits of dimensional variation markers.
In addition, V-ROD has put in place the required tools for Statistical Process Control (SPC). SPC aims to improve product quality through the use of statistical tools to ensure that production is centred and as less dispersed as possible. This quality control is “dynamic”; unlike routine tests, it is not interested in isolated and instantaneous results but rather in a follow-up over time.
This is more than just a part meeting the specifications. We make sure to monitor the chronological distribution of parts within the range of tolerance, determine the causes, and make the necessary corrections when we detect a trend.
