Frequently Asked Questions
What does secondary TMT cost?
Secondary TMT runs ₹45-55 per kg - that's 10-15% below primary. It's made from rerolled steel. Quality varies quite a bit depending on who makes it. Works fine for non-critical stuff like compound walls fencing and temporary structures.
What's the difference between primary and secondary TMT?
Primary TMT comes from iron ore in integrated mills at ₹50-65/kg with consistent quality and BIS certification. Secondary TMT is rerolled from scrap or billets at ₹45-55/kg with variable quality and some are ISI marked. Stick to primary for RCC structures.
Is secondary TMT actually safe to use?
It's fine for non-structural work like compound walls boundary fencing partition walls. Don't use it for load-bearing RCC though - no columns beams or slabs. Even for secondary TMT verify the ISI mark and test certificates.
Where does secondary TMT make sense?
Secondary TMT works for compound walls garden fencing non-load-bearing partitions agricultural structures and temporary construction. Basically anywhere cost matters more than structural strength. Don't use it for main building RCC work.
How can I spot secondary TMT?
