Fiberglass Rebar For A Concrete Pad

In this video we’re pouring a concrete pad and staircase. We’re using Pinkbar fibreglass rebar to reinforce the pad. It’s got a stronger shear strength than steel while being smaller lighter and corrosion proof!

The spit was a nice touch at the end 😂. Stay safe everyone!

These are also good for embedding into shower pan dry pack.

have you ever finished professionally? the finish looked great was wondering if you were self taught or how long youve been doing it for

[@woodbullyltd]

We’re not the best. We usually do a tile wet lay or bring in a solid finisher if needed.

Always thought it was more expensive, if its cheaper I would love to use it next time I do some concrete work

[@brandonlawrence1940]

It is more expensive. The cost savings comes from the ability to size down. If you use a #4 steel, you can use a #3 fiberglass, that's where the savings start. It is lighter so you need less equipment and man power for bending and all of that stuff.

How long have you been using it? I don’t have any experience with it, and was reading the reviews on Lowe’s website. A lot of folks said you had better wear gloves or you’d have splinters, etc. Did you experience any of that and would you continue using it?

[@brandonlawrence1940]

@@mikeingeorgia1 I'm a sales rep for pink bar, pink + could catch a splinter or two, nothing compared to other brands. Pink bar (sand coated- can't find this at Lowe's or home Depot, try a local concrete supply co.) had no splintering at all.
