Rebar couplers, also named mechanical rebar connections, also known as mechanical splices, are used to join lengths of rebar together.

Reinforcing bar coupling has all of the features desirable in a rebar joining system combined with unequaled simplicity of installation. Couplers are designed to splice the same diameter bars where one bar is free to move and can be rotated. Mechanical connections between two pieces of rebar that enable the bars to behave in a manner similar to continuous lengths of rebar.

Why do we choose to use rebar couplers in the construction project?

#1 Reduce the congestion of rebars with lapped joints, which could affect the integrity of the structure.

#2 Rebar coupler is not dependent on the concrete and behaves as continuous length rebar.

#3 Using rebar couplers to connect starter bars will avoid damaging formwork.

#4 More cost savings as steel will be used, eliminating wastage and unnecessary rebar cost up to 40%.

#5 Building a greener and a 'lighter' building, by significantly reducing the amount of embodied Carbon Dioxide in the splice connections compared to lapping.

#6 Spliced bars behave as continuous lengths of reinforcing steel bars by providing full strength in tension and compression and stress reversal applications.

#7 Quick and easy to install

#8 A self-aligning taper-threaded design provides continuity and structural integrity

#9 Develops higher tensile strength than lap splicing in reinforced concrete.
