Available to suit bar sizes 12mm to 50mm, the couplers are installed quickly and easily on site without the need for specially trained personnel or specialised, expensive machinery.<br \/>\nThe compact design of each coupler ensures suitability for use in confined situations where space is restricted or where the loss of cover must be minimised. The couplers are normally supplied fitted to the end of threaded bar, requiring only the engagement and tightening of the adjoining bar on site. In order to ensure correct installation, the use of a torque wrench specified.<br \/>\nStandard Coupler <strong>The Standard Tapered Thread oupler<\/strong> 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.<br \/>\nThe couplers are generally torqued onto the reinforcing bar in the bar threading shop, the internal threads protected by plastic end caps. The threaded ends of the continuation bar are protected by plastic thread protectors.<br \/>\nEngagement of the bar within the coupler is simplified by the tapered thread design which aids alignment. When the bar is fully engaged within the coupler, the continuation bar is tightened using a torque wrench.<br \/>\nThe Standard Tapered Thread coupler is designed for use in concrete structures utilising Grade 500 rebar. The connection is capable of achieving failure loads in excess of most national code requirements.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1202\" src=\"http:\/\/test2.hashtagwebsite.design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/coupler1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"710\" height=\"124\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joluka.co.za\/construction\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/coupler1.png 710w, https:\/\/www.joluka.co.za\/construction\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/coupler1-500x87.png 500w, https:\/\/www.joluka.co.za\/construction\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/coupler1-180x31.png 180w, https:\/\/www.joluka.co.za\/construction\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/coupler1-300x52.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>The Tapered Thread Coupler<\/strong> is designed to suit the majority of applications which call for the joining of reinforcing bars.<\/p>\n<p>The couplers are normally supplied fitted to the end of threaded bar, requiring only the engagement and tightening of the adjoining bar on site.
