Mateenbar Fiberglass Rebar

Mateenbar Fiberglass Rebar, also known as glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebar has a range of features and benefits.

• Mateenbar Fiberglass Rebar is made with E-glass fiber, the strongest and stiffest type of glass fiber available.
• Glass fibers are pulled through a resin bath where they are fully saturated with resin of Vinyl-ester resin, one of the strongest and most durable.
• After saturated with resin, the fibers are pulled through a die to mold them into the rebar’s final shape and size.

Product & Design Standards

ASTM D7957: Greenbar2X Fiberglass Rebar meet physical and mechanical requirements of ASTM D7957 material standards.
ICC-ES 5548; ICC-EER 5548: Greenbar2X Fiberglass Rebar meets or exceeds ICC-ES AC454 acceptance criteria, including bond strength, tensile strength and modulus of elasticity.
TMS 402/602: Greenbar2X Fiberglass Rebar can be used with TMS 402/602-22 Appendix D as reinforcing for masonry walls.

As Compared to Steel

Yield Strength: Delivers superior tensile strength, offering enhanced durability and lasting support beyond traditional steel rebar.
Downsizing & Benefits: Approved for downsizing from #4 steel to #3 Greenbar2X for applications such as single/multi-family foundations & basement walls. Customers can save money by downsizing to Greenbar2X.
Corrosion Resistant: Does not rust when exposed to moisture, chemicals or harsh environments, lacquer coating protects from sun and snow.
Longer Lifespan: Rustproof nature ensures structures remain durable over time, reducing the need for maintenance
and repairs.
Moisture Prone Area Application: Ideal for projects in coastal, marine or humid environments where steel typically corrodes.
Maintenance Cost Savings: Minimizes long-term repair and replacement.
Reduced Crew & Savings: Greenbar2X #3 bars weigh 2.2lbs per 20’, while the equivalent size steel weighs 7.5lbs. Cost savings by reducing jobsite crew sizes and using less fuel while transporting.
Handling & Installation: Lighter material reduces the risk of injury while handling and installing, promoting a safer work site.
Transportation: 500 bars of #3 Greenbar2X, 20’ can be loaded on a standard ladder rack of a truck.
Building Codes: Fully compliant with applicable industry standards and building codes; ensuring confident use.
Streamlined Approval Process: Simplifies project planning and permits, reducing delays related to compliance checks.
Trust and Reliability: Builders, contractors, and engineers can rely on adherence to regulations, knowing it meets stringent safety and performance standards.
