Scrappys buys and sells second hand reinforced (reo) bars.
Reo mesh (short for reinforcing mesh), known when massed as reinforcing steel or reinforcement steel, is mesh of steel wires used as a tension device in reinforced concrete and reinforced masonry structures to strengthen and aid the concrete under tension. Concrete is strong under compression, but has weak tensile strength. Reo significantly increases the tensile strength of the structure. The reo mesh surface is often “deformed” with ribs, lugs or indentations to promote a better bond with the concrete and reduce the risk of slippage.
The most common type of reo mesh is carbon steel, typically comprising hot-rolled round bars with deformation patterns. Other readily available types include stainless steel, and composite bars made of glass fiber, carbon fiber, or basalt fiber.
