Advantages using Billets vis a vis Ingots

Billets	Ingots
Billets have Uniform Cross Section	Ingots are tapered
Batch Size-20 Mt per Heat	Only 3-4 Mt in case of Ingots
Internal micro structure is sound without porosity and piping	Secondary Piping cannot be avoided
Billets are of homogenous composition due to through mixing and subsequent purging	Non-Homogenous composition

Tulsyan TMT & Non Standard CTD/TMT Rebars

Non-Standard CTD bars/TMT bars	Tulsyan TMT Bars
Do not conform to ISI standard	Conform to IS: 1786 standard
Length of bar is not uniform	Length of bar is uniform
Bar not marked for identification and quality	Each bar is marked Tulsyan ISI
No colour coding	Green color coding for Fe-415, Blue for Fe-500, Yellow for CRS
Made from rerollable scrap/ingots	Made from Billets
Not made from fully killed steel	Made from killed steel
Low in yield strength, tensile strength and elongation	High in yield strength, tensile strength and elongation because of superior TMT process used
Not anti-corrosive	Anti-corrosive due to cleaner steel, presence of marten site layer on outer surface and formation of protective scale film due to water quenching
No test certificate issued	Test Certificate issued with respect to each supply
Low bond strength	High bond strength due to designed deformation
High loss due to wastage because of use of non-standard material	Minimum wastage as product is standardized
Non earthquake resistant	Earthquake resistant due to high ductility
Non resistant to high temperature	Fire resistant up to 500°C without loss of strength
No after-sales service	Excellent after-sales service
