    Pag-asa Steel produces various sizes and grades of reinforcing steel bars. Their bars are identifiable by hot-rolled logos and size markings. They produce bars according to Philippine and ASTM standards, with nominal diameters ranging from 10mm to 36mm. Bars come in commercial lengths between 6-12 meters, with allowable variations in weight and length according to standards. Pag-asa Steel bars are available in grades for low, intermediate, and high tensile strength applications.

    THE PAG-ASA REBAR [Top]

    Pag-asa Steel rebar products are identifiable through the Company Logo ("PSW", short for Pag-
    asa Steel Works), which is hot-rolled and embossed onto each bar at specified intervals. The Rebar
    Size Mark, which specifies the nominal diameter of the bar, is also hot-rolled adjacent to the
    company logo.

    Pag-asa Steel pioneered the practice of placing its logo on its bars in 1975, before it was mandated
    by law. The Bureau of Product Standards of the Department of Trade and Industry of the Philippines
    now requires all rebar manufacturers to put identifying marks on their bars.

    STANDARDS [Top]

    Pag-asa Steel produces superior reinforcing steel bars in an array of sizes, lengths, and grades in
    adherence to Philippine National Standard (PNS 49:2002), as well as the global ASTM Standard
    (ASTM A615/A706) established by the American Society for Testing and Materials (now known as
    ASTM International).
    BAR SIZES [Top]

    Pag-asa Steel manufactures and sells the following standard sizes (in nominal diameters): 10mm,
    12mm, 16mm, 20mm, 25mm, 28mm, 32mm, and 36mm. Larger sizes such as 40mm and 50mm
    bars may be produced via special order.

    For steel bars, the terms "size" and "nominal diameter" are used interchangeably.

    WEIGHT TOLERANCE [Top]

    Because variation in cross sectional area occurs during hot rolling, a corresponding variation in
    linear weight is to be expected. For this reason, PNS 49 provides for an allowable 'variation in
    mass' (VIM) of 6%, measured using one meter of rebar.

    COMMERCIAL LENGTHS [Top]

    Pag-asa Steel rebars come in the following commercial lengths: 6.0m, 7.5m, 9.0m, 10.5m, and
    12.0 m. Special lengths of 13.5 and 15.0 meters may be produced via special order.
    Just like weight, the cut length of a rebar may also vary because of shrinkage as it cools down.
    The minimum acceptable lengths of the finished rebar according to the Philippine Standard are as
    follows:

    Std. Length (m) Min. Acceptable Length (m)


    6.0 5.960
    7.5 7.453
    9.0 8.935
    10.5 10.440
    12.0 11.940

    GRADES [Top]

    Pag-asa Steel rebars comes in the following grades to meet high, intermediate, and low-tensile
    building requirements.

    ASTM vs PNS Popular


    Typical Application
    Codes Nomenclature

    Grade 33 / PNS Low-rise Buildings and Low Loading


    Structural Grade
    230 Conditions

    Grade 40 / PNS Medium-rise Structures /


    Intermediate Grade
    275 Infrastructure Work

    Grade 60 / PNS Medium & High-rise Structures /


    High-Tensile Grade
    415 Infrastructure

    Higher tensile grades designated as Grade 75 / 500 and Grade 80 / 550 are also available subject
    to agreement and availability.

    The three grades are distinguished by different color markings painted at the ends of each bar, as
    shown in the following table:
