National Mfg N346-965 Steel Rebar 0.5x48 Inches Grade 40

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N346-965 is a steel rebar rod measuring 0.5 inches in diameter and 48 inches in length, designed for concrete and masonry reinforcement applications. Manufactured to ASTM A615-14 Grade 40 standards, this rebar provides tensile reinforcement in poured concrete assemblies including foundations, footings, and structural forms. The steel construction delivers the durability required for load-bearing and exterior exposure conditions. It is typically installed by concrete contractors, general contractors, and experienced DIYers working on structural projects where code-compliant reinforcement is required.

This rebar is suited for residential and light commercial exterior applications including foundation construction, concrete form reinforcement, and post stabilization. Its 48-inch length makes it practical for standard footing depths and short vertical post embedment. ASTM A615-14 Grade 40 certification confirms it meets established structural steel standards for deformed and plain carbon-steel bars used in concrete reinforcement.

Installation Notes

Rebar placement and tying is typically performed by concrete contractors in accordance with applicable building codes and engineered structural drawings. Power down or isolate any adjacent utilities before excavating or forming. Use appropriate tie wire and rebar chairs to maintain correct cover depth within forms before pouring concrete. Do not modify or cut rebar without verifying that the resulting length still meets the project structural specification.
