Yes, it is epoxy coated rebar, Out in the west they also have an epoxy

I have seen fiberglass rebar mentioned. Does it have any disadvantages
over steel rebar?


???? They likely meant glass fiber additive, as a replacement for rebar,
not actual rebar made of fiberglass. Used mainly in light slabs like
patios, garages, and warm-climate driveways. I suppose it reduces prep
labor, but I'm old fashioned and not sure I'd trust it as a replacement
for 4" fabric.

The Stone Slab Floor Setters union thought the same thing when that
new-fangled fake stone - concrete - was introduced.
