National Mfg N316-497 Plain Steel Rebar Grade 4 72 Inches

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG N316-497 is a plain steel rebar measuring 0.5 inches in diameter by 72 inches in length, manufactured to ASTM A615-14 standards at Grade 4. It is used to reinforce concrete structures by providing tensile strength where concrete alone would be insufficient. Concrete contractors, foundation specialists, and structural tradespeople install this rebar in poured footings, slabs, foundation walls, and post bases. Each package contains 3 bars and ships at 11.64 pounds total. The plain surface finish is standard for applications where deformed rebar is not required by design specification.

This rebar is designed for use in foundation construction, concrete forms, and post reinforcement. It is suited to residential and light commercial concrete work where a Grade 4 plain bar meeting ASTM A615-14 meets the structural specification. Typical installations include poured concrete footings, pier forms, retaining wall bases, and fence or sign post reinforcement in concrete. At 72 inches per bar, it fits standard footing depths and post embedment requirements without field cutting in many common applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by concrete contractors or structural tradespeople in accordance with applicable building codes and project engineering drawings. Verify minimum concrete cover requirements per local code before placing rebar in forms. Secure bars with tie wire at intersections to prevent shifting during pour. Do not substitute bar grade or size without confirming the change against the structural design specification.
