How Do AMBA Shakti SD TMT Bars Strengthen Modern Retail Structures?

Retail spaces are not just about the visual appeal; they need to be built to withstand various stresses, including natural calamities like earthquakes. This is where AMBA Shakti SD TMT Bars come into play.

  • These super ductile bars are manufactured using controlled raw materials, ensuring earthquake resistance—a critical feature for any retail establishment.

  • Their no twist straight mill rolling process ensures distortion-free bars, maintaining aesthetics while delivering strength.

  • The master bundle of 3 MT prevents pilferage, safeguarding structural integrity.

  • CNC notching ensures uniformity for superior cement bonding.

  • Use of HSS rolls provides a higher pass life, good finish, and better durability.

  • Hot charging technology reduces energy costs by approx. 20% compared to local quality steel.

  • Produced with Thermax® Patented Technology, ensuring top quality under expert supervision.


Why Choose AMBA Shakti Flexion TMT Bars for Complex Structures?

For more complex and critical structures such as high-rise buildings, dams, airports, and megastructures, AMBA Shakti Flexion TMT Bars are the go-to solution.

  • They share the core features of the SD bars but are designed to compete with primary steel manufacturers.

  • Manufactured through the Ladle Refining Furnace (LRF) route, which refines steel and removes tramp elements—enhancing tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation.

  • Provide even better earthquake resistance, making them ideal for demanding projects.

  • Offer economic benefits by passing on cost savings due to lower overheads, without compromising quality.
