Description
Tapered Thread Couplers are widely suitable for most applications that require joining reinforcing bars (rebars). These couplers provide a simple and effective solution for creating strong, reliable connections in reinforced concrete structures.
Key Features:
-
Easy Installation: Tapered Thread Couplers are typically supplied pre-fitted to the end of a threaded bar. To complete the connection, simply engage and tighten the adjoining bar on-site using a calibrated torque wrench. This straightforward process ensures a secure and effective splice without the need for any special equipment or training.
-
Reliable and Robust Connections: Designed for use in concrete structures, these couplers provide a mechanical splice that meets the requirements of industry standards such as BS EN 1992-1-1: 2004 (Eurocode 2) and BS 8110. This ensures that the connections achieve the necessary structural integrity and performance needed in construction applications.
-
Ancon Range of Couplers: The Ancon range of Tapered Thread Couplers offers a variety of options to cater to different rebar sizes and project needs. They provide high-strength connections that are capable of withstanding the demands of modern construction practices.
Benefits:
-
Wide Application: Suitable for a variety of structural applications, including beams, columns, slabs, and other reinforced concrete elements where strong and reliable rebar connections are essential.
-
Compliance with Standards: By meeting the stringent requirements of Eurocode 2 and BS 8110, Tapered Thread Couplers ensure high-quality and safe construction practices, providing peace of mind to engineers, contractors, and clients.
-
Quick and Efficient: The ease of installation and the use of standard tools for tightening make these couplers a time-efficient and cost-effective choice for construction sites.
Tapered Thread Couplers are an excellent choice for construction professionals seeking reliable, easy-to-install solutions for joining rebars in reinforced concrete structures, ensuring both efficiency and compliance with key construction standards.
