SUPER BRAND WITH SUPER PROTECTION AGAINST CORROSION - TATA TISCON CRSD ‘CORROSION -THE DEVIL within Corosion ithe most deadly enemy of concrete structures, Wherever there Ishumity,corosion sets in steadlly and destroys slowly, attacking houses, bridges, dams, industrial plants and just about any fonstriction that has used concrete reinforced with steel The peril of coresion {sdetrimental to the inner strength of any concrete ‘TATATISCON cRSO -THE CORROSION FIGHTER TATATiscon CRSO keeps cotrsion a bay and protects the lie of your Structures TATA Tiscon’s Corrosion Resistant Super Ductile Rebars(CRSD) are best suited to resist both ‘corrosion ane damages ‘caused by earthquakes The TATATiscon CRSD with Fe 00D properties fights salinity in the ai, sea-water, groundwater moisture and acid particles inthe ait. Ordinary rebars on the other hand have a shorter Me span. TATATISCON cRSD~ AVAILABILITY he unique protective chemist of CRSD rebars rot only ress corrosion butalso prolong thelife of concrete structures. “TATATison CRSD FeS00D (grade ofS 1786:2000) rebars ae available in the following sizes: mn, 10mm, TZ, mm, 20mm, 22mm, 25mm, 28mm, 32mm, 55mm, omen TATA TISCON CRSD odededed TATA TISCON JOY OF BUILDING TATATISCON cRSD- ADVANTAGES Longerlfe High yeld strength coupled with superior ductility and bendablity No extra operations required during fabrication Easy to weld Can be bent and rezent Using a very small mancrelBENEFITS OF CRSD OVER EPOXY & CPCC The various differences between TATA TISCON CRSD, CPCC and Epoxy Coated Rebar are listed below. Corrosion Resistance Enhanced inherent External coating that External coating that Technology Immunity with spectal behaves more lke ablanket behaves more lke a alloying addition cover blanket cover/plant Surface preparation Not required Surface cleaning efficiency Not required isa critical factor Coating holiday effect No coating holiday effect Detection andelimination Pits and discontinuities in due to inherent corrosion ofall coating holidays under _ the epoxy film can lead to resistance suspicion. Pts and accelarated corrosion at the discontinuities can lead to uncoated ste severe pitting and corrosion atthe uncoated site Bond strength with Betterbond strength with Bond strength may not be Lesser bond strength concrete concrete high due to external coating compared to CRS due to external coating No special cares required Coating gets damaged Notadvisable for welding Welding during welding as coating gets damaged during welding Normal practice as Chances ofcrackingilaking Chances ofcackingy/Mlaking conventional rebar ‘of cating while cutting. of coating while cutting Special tools needed for cutting to avoid damage in the vicinity of cut end Fabrication (cutting) No protection required at Exposed cutend doesnot Exposed cut end do not bear cut end due to have any coating from have any coating Inherent immunity where corrosion can initiate from where corrosion can Bending Normal practice just asfor Therearechances ofthe __Thereisa chance that the conventional rebar coating getting removed coating may get disbonded during bending.
