WHAT IT IS

Bar benders and bar cutters are electrically powered machines for preparing reinforcing steel (Y-bar and R-bar) on Malaysian construction sites. The bar bender forms steel bars to the angles and shapes specified on structural drawings; the bar cutter severs bars to the required lengths. Combo bender-cutter units handle both operations. Bending capacity typically Y6–Y32 mm (heavy models to Y40); motor 1.5–3.0 kW (bender) or 3.0–5.5 kW (cutter). Speed: 6–18 bends/min and 30–45 cuts/min. Standard equipment on any structural concrete project requiring on-site rebar fabrication. CIDB plant registration may apply on regulated projects.
