Ecofix Mechanical Splicing: A union reliability
Technically Superior: Spliced rebar performs like continuous
reinforcement. Splicing develops strength mechanically,
independent of concrete. Therefore provides ductility in
RCC structures independent of condition of concrete. Proven
cyclic performence of spliced rebar offers strength during
man-made, seismic or other natural events. The continuity
of spliced rebar offers excellent provision for grounding
electrical current.
Designer friendly:
Ecofix coupler reduces rebar congestion and improves concrete
flow & consolidation. It offers greater flexibility
in design options. The simplicity in detailing of reinforcement,
particularly in reinforcement congestion zones minimizes
the reinforcement fixing errors, detailing and fixing of
seismic reinforcement becomes effortless. Workability with
higher steel-to-concrete ratio allows optimum sizing of
RCC structural members.
Contractor's preference:
Ecofix coupler offers quality, cost and time saving. Fixing
couplers requires no special skills or equipments. Simple
mechanical ways in adopting mechanical splicing compared
to lapping, accelerates construction schedules for optimum
cost and efficiency.
Handling the rebar in convenient sizes saves on valuable
crane time. It is economical to use couplers for higher
diameter rebar as it saves on considerable weight and rebar
wastage. Special application for micro-piling, piling, slope
protection, pre-cast concrete, slip-forming, formwork protection,
top-down construction makes Ecofix coupler as a part of
any major project.
