- Quality tested in-house, using SPECTROMAXx and
UTM, to meet international standards
- All high tensile rebars are made TM FAB 500 ®
TMT
from recycled metal scrap sourced in Ghana- and
prime hot rolled billets and:
a. require less energy than the production of steel
from iron core
b. reduce the demands of landfill disposal facilities
c. prevent the accumulation of abandoned steel
products
- Overall higher yield & tensile strength & enhanced
percentage elongation
- Easy bendability, weldability, & ductility
- Corrosion-resistance properties & increased
seismic resistance
- Increased thermal stability (ideal for elevated
temperatures)
- The TM FAB 500 ®
TMT registered trademark is visible on all rebars produced in Ghana
Rebars pass through a specially-designed, fullyautomatic, and computerized quenching box. Water is sprayed on the rebar surface to maintain a colder exterior temperature while maintaining a hot interior temperature.
Ausienite
Martensite
Thermo Mechanically-Treated technology is used to manufacture high tensile strength rebars through heating and cooling stages that create a combination of micro-structural features in the cross section of the rebars. All rebars are 'hot rolled' before entering these 3 stages:
Rebars are removed from the quenching box and left until the surface hardens, creating an outer layer of tempered martensite.
Tempered Martensite
Rebars enter the cooling beds. In this final stage, the austenitic core turns into ferrite-pearlite or ductile. The combination of a tempered martensite surface and ferrite-pearlite core provides a considerably higher strength and ductility to the finished material, making it ideal for building strong structures.
Ferrite Perlite
A decade of KNOWLEDGE of ever-changing market
demands, extensive industry experience, and a deep
understanding of customer needs drives FM Ghana to
make quality the hallmark of high tensile TM FAB 500 ®
TMT rebars.
Features that make FAB 500 TMT Superior... and your first choice
Fabrimetal have precise, uniform and parallel rib pattern engraved through computer controlled notch making machines, which results in excellent gripping with concrete
Fabrimetal have microstructure with a soft core which gives excellent bendability without compromising high strength.
Fabrimetal have Low Carbon content that ensure easier and faster welding without preheating. Thus leading to stronger and safer weld joints.
Parallel rib pattern and low carbon content gives superior corrosion resistance property to Kamal Rebars.
Fabrimetal have higher ductility to withstand cyclic loading and are thus suitable in earthquake prone areas.
The Consistent and Thick layer of tempered martensiticrim on the outer surface of Fabrimetal gives higher capacity to retain strength at increased temperatures.
Hardened Outer Layer
Soft Inner Core
Technology Advantage
The technology forms Hardened outer layer and Soft Inner core making the bars Tough and yet Flexible to withstand critical loads.
As it delivers higher values of strength & ductility it reduces quantity of required steel which further reduces the own weight load of structure. And eventually less steel means more economical.
It leads to excellent bonding with Concrete making RCC structure stronger. It also eliminates the torsion residual stress resulting Corrosion Resistance and thus increasing life of structure.
Developing People, Growing Our Business
We have understood the purpose of CSR, it is to give back to the community and provide positive social values.We started "FAB GOODNESS" campaign , years back as our CSR arm to maximize our purpose in uplifting the living conditions of the Ghanaian people. We created support through Infrastructure development and financial assistance, making our primary focus on Healthcare, Education and Sports.
