The Reinforcements Are Here!
Building Code Requirements for Masonry Construction now require longer lap lengths for some bar sizes. These changes mean more congestion in masonry cells and more difficult construction. To alleviate this problem, builders can either use open-cell blocks, which are quite expensive, or use mechanical rebar couplers to eliminate the lap.
Space Saving - Time Saving - Money Saving

The Lenton reinforcing bar coupling has all of the features desireable in a rebar joining system combined with unequalled simplicity of installation
LENTON Standard Couplers are designed to splice the same diameter bars where one bar is free to move and can be rotated.

Features of the standard Lenton Rebar Coupler
|
|
- Unique self-aligning taper-threaded design provides continuity and structural integrity
- Spliced bars behave as continuous lengths of reinforcing steel bars by providing full strength in tension and compression and stress reversal applications
- Designed to withstand man-made blasts, and other seismic events
- Quick and easy to install
- Develops higher tensile strength than lap splicing
- Provides full load transfer with the slimmest and shortest coupler possible
