Our Solutions
Bolted coupler without rebar preparation
Unitec® is a bolted splicing system designed for the connection of two rebars that have not been previously prepared (no thread). Each Unitec coupler features a long hollow body that will bond with rebar. Several screws will lock both bar ends and complete the connection. Unitec is designed to be operated with a standard impact/pneumatic wrench.
RepairGrip system is a portable system designed to splice bars in situ. It is a simple and proven method to splice bars that did not have their end shop prepared. The RepairGrip sleeve is swaged onto the bar ends by a hydraulic tool powered by a separate power unit. The resulting connection guarantees at least 100% of nominal tensile strength on reinforcing bars grade 500 MPa. RepairGrip splices are butt-to-butt splices that are suitable for both tension and compression applications.
