​

The Facility in Lagos produces TMT rebars with the latest on-line high yield quenching and self
tempering (HYQST) technology. The modern mill equipped with Morgan enhanced temperature
control system (METS) produces TMT rebars in 8mm to 32mm diameter, suitable for high-strength applications.

The production of TMT rebars involves a combination of plastic deformation of steel in
austenitic stage, followed by quenching and further tempering. The process controls at each critical
operation ensures uniform properties in each rebar and provides the TMT rebars with a soft ferrite and
pearlite fine-grained core, a strong and tough tempered martensite layer imparting it with high ductility
as well as strength, thus making it ideal for high rises, dams, bridges, individual houses and any
critical structures where high yield strength is required without compromising on the elongation
properties.
