FAQ
What is the difference between Fe 500 and Fe 500D TMT?
Both have 500 MPa minimum yield strength. The 'D' (Ductile) variant has tighter limits on sulphur and phosphorus and higher elongation — required for earthquake-resistant construction (IS 13920) and preferred for all critical RCC work.
Which TMT brand should I choose for house construction?
For a typical residential project in Mumbai, Fe 500D from any IS-certified primary mill (SAIL, JSW, Tata, Jindal) is the right specification. Use our slab steel calculator to estimate quantity, and contact us for current rates and stock.
Do you supply TMT with mill test certificates?
Yes — every dispatch is accompanied by the original mill test certificate from the producing plant, with heat number traceability.
How do I get a price for TMT Bars (Fe 500 / Fe 550)?
Send the exact size, grade, approved make, quantity and delivery location. Request a dated quotation with validity, taxes, freight and processing charges clearly stated; chart weights are not a price or stock commitment.
Are all listed TMT Bars (Fe 500 / Fe 550) sizes available immediately?
The size chart is a reference, not a live inventory feed. Confirm the requested size, grade, make, available lengths, minimum order quantity and dispatch schedule with SIIPL before placing an order.
What should I confirm about mill certificates and billed weight?
Include your mill test certificate, material marking and heat-number traceability requirements in the enquiry. Agree whether billing uses actual weighed weight or another stated basis, and request the relevant weight records before order confirmation.
Can I enquire about exporting TMT Bars (Fe 500 / Fe 550) from India?
Yes. Share the destination country and port, exact product standard and grade, quantity, delivery schedule, packing and inspection requirements. SIIPL reviews export requirements individually; destination compliance and commercial terms must be agreed for the order.
