Specifications:

Description:

1. The Tapered Thread couplers is designed to suit the majority of applications which call for the joining of reinforcing bars.

2.  Available to suit bar sizes 16mm to 40mm, the couplers are installed quickly and easily on site without the need for specially trained personnel or specialised, expensive machinery.

3. The Standard Tapered Thread coupler is suitable for connecting two bars of the same diameter, where one bar can be rotated. It comprises an internally threaded sleeve with two right hand threads which are tapered towards the middle of the coupler. The bar ends are square cut and a tapered thread is cut onto the bar. A nominal allowance of +25mm should be allowed per threaded bar end for square cutting the bar end. The couplers are generally torqued onto the reinforcing bar in the bar threading shop, the internal threads protected by plastic end caps.

4.  The threaded ends of the continuation bar are protected by plastic thread protectors. Engagement of the bar within the coupler is simplified by the tapered thread design which aids alignment.

5.  When the bar is fully engaged within the coupler, the continuation bar is tightened using a torque wrench.
