Introduction: Parallel Thread Rebar couplers are devices used to join lengths of rebar together, allowing to quickly and safely create a high performance splice on the construction site. Usually, the rebar ends need to be prepared to connect two bars. This is done by specific equipment which GLUS has engineered and manufactured.

Introduction: GLUS upsetting forged rebar couplers offer a full strength connection together with enhanced fatigue resistance. They are suitable for projects of any size, including those requiring a high volume of couplers, such as road and rail bridges. Each end of the rebar to be joined is cut square and enlarged using a cold forge process. A thread is then formed on the enlarged bar end using a thread rolling machine. The thread is such that the cross-sectional area of the bar ends are not reduced ensuring the strength of the connection matches or exceeds that of the parent bars.

Introduction: GLUS weldable rebar couplers provide a convenient means of connecting reinforcing bars to structural steel plates or sections. Shorter than the standard coupler, it has a parallel thread at one end. The other end is welded directly to the steel. The load conditions at the connection must be determined by the designer along with the type and size of weld required. It adopts high performance low carbon alloy steel (20Cr) as material to ensure the welding quality. Another important consideration is the type of electrode to be used, which must be matched to the properties of the plate and tube, and to the site conditions under which the welding will be undertaken. Welders should be qualified for the type of weld required.
