Benefits:
  • Mechanical connections offer greater structural integrity.
  • Mechanical splices offer strength & toughness during man-made, seismic or other natural events.
  • Mechanical splicing systems eliminate projecting rebars, protect the safety of workers, reduce the cost of rebar and reduce bar congestion.

 

ASTM A-615 Grade 60 Rebar

A615 grade 60 reinforcing bars are the most widely used type and grade of reinforcing steel.

A615 rebar is available is available in a wide range of sizes. See chart for available sizes and dimensions.

Standard Coupler

EDC couplers are designed to eliminate protruding rebar and extend rebar without damaging formwork. Standard couplers have an internal positive stop to ensure proper thread engagement. Couplers may be supplied with or without a flange.

See chart for available sizes and dimensions.

Positional Coupler

EDC positional couplers are especially convenient when rebar cannot be rotated to engage threads. Positional couplers are tapped through to allow full positioning on one bar, then rotation back on to the other bar.

See chart for available sizes and dimensions.
