Learn about the weight of rods. At Serviacero Comercial we have a wide range of diameters of corrugated rods. This material is mainly used in the construction industry to provide support to concrete structures for the construction of castles, masonry walls, vaults, slabs, beams, posts, joists, stirrups, among others.
We have two types of rods, the R-42 and the R-6000, which differ in thickness, since one is thinner than the other.
Below is a table in which we give you the numbers, diameters, area, perimeter, weight and pieces per ton:
Now that you know about the characteristics of the rods, you can choose the most suitable one for your projects, knowing the Weight of the Rods.
