Parallel thread: No risk of thread mis-match. No risk of cross-threading.<br \/>\nSPLICING METHODS<br \/>\nPOSITION SPLICE<br \/>\nEven when both bars cannot be turned, the BARTEC system uses a standard BARTEC COUPLER (exactly the same as used for type A): The coupler is fully engaged onto the extended thread of the connection bar. The assembly is simply completed by butting the bars end to end and screwing back the coupler onto the first bar until it is fully engaged.<br \/>\nThis assembly method is similar to Type B, with the addition of a lock-nut to maintain the second bar in position.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MECHANICAL ANCHORAGES:<\/strong><br \/>\nA convenient alternative to hooked bars to provide end anchorages in congested areas.<br \/>\nBARTEC standard anchorage heads are circular and have a net bearing area of 4 times or 9 times the cross-section of the bar, but can be specified in other shapes or dimensions to f i t t h e a p p l i c a t i o n requirement.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-435 size-full\"
