For many years, the traditional method of connecting reinforcingbars has been with lap splicing. But as many structural engineers,architects and specifiers have discovered, lap splicing has very fewadvantages and quite a few disadvantages when compared tomechanical splicing. Read through the following pages andexplore the reasons why you should consider mechanical couplers.

Take A Look Into The Future Which system do you want to rely

Lap Splicing vs.

Lap SplicingIs It Reliable?• Lap splices develop their strength from

interaction with concrete• The higher the yield stress, the greater

the lap length required• Lap splices have poor cyclic performance• To prevent concrete splitting, additional

rebar may be required for confinement

Deterioration of concrete due to improperlydesigned rebar splices and lack of reinforce-ment, often leads to premature splice failure.

Design-Constrictive• Lap length required for bars in tension

is normally longer than same size bars in compression

• Lap splices double the number of bars leading to rebar congestion which can restrict the flow of aggregates

Hidden Costs• The bigger the bar diameter,

the longer the lap• The lower the concrete strength,

the longer the lap length required• Corrosion-resistant coated bars

are expensive and longer lengths may be used

• Lap splicing involves time consuming calculations, possible calculation mistakes, and overestimating

Taper Threaded Splices

LENTON Mechanical Splices from ERICO, are a taper-threaded splicing system thatassures a positive locking connection, providing continuity and structural integrityto reinforced concrete construction. LENTON spliced bars behave as continuouslengths of reinforcing steel bars by providing “full strength” in tension, compres-sion and stress reversal applications.

The Unique Taper-Threaded DesignThe LENTON self-aligning, taper-threaded design provides ease of installation, consistent performance and durability. It also develops higher tensilestrength than lap splicing and provides full load transfer with the slimmest andshortest coupler possible.

Design Benefits• Allows maximum bar cross-section to be used• Smallest diameter in the industry reduces need for concrete cover and eliminates

rebar congestion• Short length and slim design ensure the least disturbance to uniform stiffness• Splice strength is independent of rebar deformation • Unique tapered thread requires no lock nuts and provides

a positive locking, no-slip connection• Any length, shape, diameter or combination

of bar sizes can be mechanically spliced

method of mechanical splicing

Provides Continuity in Economy of DesignLENTON improves steel-to-concrete ratio by eliminating half of thebars necessary in the “lap zone” of a column. Use of lap splicingmay exceed the concrete to steel ratio of many international standards.

With LENTON splices, you can design smaller columns and createmaximum floor space, while reducing your form costs. Form sizescan also be established for more cost savings, and LENTON couplersare excellent for future extension applications.

*Visit www.erico.com for a copy of ICC-ES ER-3967.

Test Conducted to ICC AC 133 Performed on Typical U.S. Rebar

LENTON splices provide you with the ability to design and build concrete struc-tures that meet or exceed today’s stringent construction codes and federal reg-ulations regarding seismic frame construction. LENTON couplers are superior toother current methods of splicing in withstanding seismic, man-made blastsand other natural events by providing reinforcing splices for rebar.

tand the Test of Time

Corrosion ConsiderationsCorrosion increases the size of the rebar causing the concrete cover to spalland crack. As lap splices depend on the “bond” between concrete and steelfor strength, concrete degradation caused by corrosion results in lap splicefailure. With LENTON couplers, structural integrity is maintained even withthe loss of the concrete cover because mechanical couplers perform similarto a continuous piece of rebar.

Lap splices transfertheir load throughthe concrete and willfail as concrete coverdegrades.

LENTON mechanical couplers perform similar to a continuouslength of rebar regardless of concrete condition.

Provides Continuity in Project EconomicsLENTON reduces the amount of additional rebar that is required in a lap system.The system can be installed in a matter of seconds, with no special skills orbulky equipment required. Construction schedules can be accelerated toachieve optimum costs. The benefit-to-cost ratio using the LENTON system is often superior to lap splicing.

LENTON® Taper ThreadedMechanical RebarSplicing System Provides:

• A better way to design and build

• Continuity and structural integrity

• Compliance with international design codes

• Ease of installation

• Economy of design

• Many economic advantages

• Reduced shippingcosts over othermethods of splicing or anchoring

LENTON bolt couplers providea full strength joint betweena reinforcing bar and a stan-dard metric bolt. The couplermay be used for load-carryingsteel structures bolted to con-crete foundations, columns orwalls, such as pylon bases,fixing crane rails, and fixingsfor heavy pipe work andwalkways.

These couplers are machinedfrom non-weldable grades of material, but can be tackwelded. S13 can make a convenient transition fromreinforcing bar to metricthreaded stud, maintainingthe full strength of the bar.Transition is useful whenforming long tie-bars, such asin formwork or pile-planks,against internal pressure andto form a restraint anchor forground anchors.

LENTON weldable couplersprovide a quick and easysolution for connecting rein-forcing bar to structural steelsections or plates. Similar tothe standard coupler, theweldable coupler is internallytaper threaded on one end,with the other end preparedfor welding.

These couplers are machinedfrom weldable grades ofmaterial such as A.I.S.I. 1018,1030, 1035 or St 52.5,depending on rebar size.The couplers are usually arcwelded to the structuralsteel in a fabricating shop.The design of the weld, theselection of electrode, andother relevant choicesdepend on the chemical andphysical properties of thestructural steel to which thecouplers are welded.

Engineers who designassemblies should adhere toall appropriate regulations.

The LENTON® TERMINATORprovides an alternative tohooked rebar, or an anchoror stop nut for rebar passingthrough a pile plank orstructural steel element. Thefront face of the coupler isgenerously designed to carrythe full tension load of therebar when the anchor isbearing against concrete orstructural steel.

The A2D6 LENTONTERMINATOR (not shown) is threaded on both sides forfuture extension work andprovides the same anchor-age benefits as the D6, D16and D14. This coupler is avail-able in North America only.Contact ERICO® for moreinformation.

LENTON® Equipment & Accessories

Internal Coupler Protectors*• Protects threads from contamination, such as in future extension applications

• Can be easily removed in seconds• Enables continuous connections with existing reinforcing bar already placed

in concrete

• Convenient and cost effective

Bar End Protectors*• Protects bar end from contamination and damage

• Placed over bar end immediately after threading

• Inhibits the formation of rust when the bar is exposed to the elements

Form Fixers (Standard in Europe, the Middle East and Africa)

Form fixers are nailing plates that are coupler dependent. These plates come in avariety of sizes and styles for connecting standard and position couplers to woodforms. The form fixer can be attached to the formwork before the anchor bar andcoupler are fixed to it. All form fixers are easy to install and remove.

It’s recommended that couplers cast into slurry wall construction have the protec-tive steel cap installed. The steel cap protects the coupler when the concrete coveris removed to expose the coupler. A set of rubber “O”-rings are included for posi-tive hydraulic seal.

Epoxy-Coated and Galvanized LENTON Mechanical Splices• All LENTON standard and transition couplers, as well as LENTON® TERMINATOR

are available in epoxy-coated, stainless and galvanized (special order only).• LENTON galvanized mechanical splices meet either ASTM A767, B695 or B633

requirements, as applicable.

• LENTON epoxy-coating complies with ASTM A775 and AASHTO M284.

• Position couplers are also available in epoxy-coated (special order only).

NOTE: Coupler dimensions listed in this catalog may vary based on raw material supply.*Refer to instruction sheets for additional information.

Standard Bar ThreaderLENTON bar threaders can be conveniently set up in a fabricator’s shop or on site,allowing greater production control. Machines are available for rent from ERICO®

worldwide. Training is provided by ERICO instructors. Thread cutting chaser setsand cutting oil are consumables and must be purchased by the user.

ERICO has been a pioneer in the concrete construction industry for over 45 years. We changed rebar splicing, first with CADWELD® mechanical connections, then with the LENTON® mechanical splicing system – the #1 mechanical connector in the world. ERICO now offers a wide range of mechanical splices for almost any construction need:

• CADWELD® – Premiere mechanical splicing system• LENTON® FORM SAVER – Ideal for segmental pour • LENTON® INTERLOK – Ideal for precast structures• LENTON® QUICK WEDGE – Ideal for quick retrofit• LENTON® SPEED SLEEVE – Ideal for compression situations• LENTON® TERMINATOR – Ideal alternative to hooked rebar anchorage

The entire ERICO line of mechanical rebar splices has replaced many conventionalsplicing systems, such as welding and lap splicing. Unlike butt welding, ERICOproducts require no special training or external power source, are quicker to installand inspect, reduce crane time, improve the tensile strength of the splice and canbe installed in any weather.

As your rebar splicing specialist, ERICO offers you the expertise you need for all your rebar splicing projects.
