LENTON® Position couplers are designed to splice two curved, bent, or straight bars, when neither bar can be rotated.
FEATURES
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, 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.
Application
Designed to splice two curved, bent, or straight bars, when neither bar can be rotated.
P8 & P13 - designed to splice bars where the ongoing bar is restricted in its axial movement or can not be rotated and length adjustability of the coupler is required.
P9 & P14 - designed to splice bars which cannot be rotated (such as bent bars or hooks) .
P15 - designed to quickly splice column sections or precision coupling of elements with multiple bars joined over a short span, such as prefabricated elements and the closing of small temporary openings .
May be used for the splicing of prefabricated cages.
