Standard A12 Mechanical Rebar Splice Standard A12
Mechanical Rebar Splice
Description
LENTON
®
standard A12 couplers are typically specified to provide continuity and
structural integrity in either columns or beams in reinforced concrete construction. The
coupler is machined to have a taper thread at both ends, creating a mechanical butt
splice of two sections of reinforcing steel. LENTON A12 couplers are designed to be
used where at least one bar is free to rotate (approximately four revolutions). The
reinforcing bars can be easily threaded directly on the job site with small and portable
threading equipment. The system installs using a typical pipe wrench. Contact ERICO
®
for your nearest supplier.
Splice Performance
The assembled connection meets ACI
®
-318, BS 8110 and DIN 1045 full-tension splice
requirements and many other international standards. The splices also exceed Type 1
and Type 2 splice requirements.
Typical Applications
New Reinforced Concrete Construction: Column Bar Splicing creates a continuous length of bar (shearwalls, corewalls). Beam Bar Splicing creates a continuous length of bar. Future Extension embedded within the concrete to structurally join the bar
at a future date. Segmental Pours positioned within the form of the first pour to allow
fastening prior to the second pour.

The LENTON
®
system is available in several styles to meet virtually any design need. Applications include standard bar-to-bar
connections, precaging applications, hooked bar applications, closure pours, precast connections, rebar terminations and anchorages,
transition splices, segmental construction and connections to structural steel.
LENTON Splices: Provide structural integrity and continuity Develop splice strength independent of concrete quality Provide ductility independent of concrete condition Offer strength during man-made, seismic or other natural events Offer superior cyclic performance

TERMINATOR
LENTON TERMINATOR provides an alternative to hooked rebar or an anchor or stop nut for rebar passing through a pile plank or
structural steel element. The front face of the coupler is generously designed to carry the full tension load of the rebar when the
anchor is bearing against concrete or structural steel.
Please contact ERICO for available coupler sizes.
LENTON Weldable Couplers
LENTON weldable couplers provide a quick and easy solution for connecting reinforcing bar to structural steel sections or plates.
Similar to the standard coupler, the weldable coupler is internally taper threaded on one end with the other end prepared for
welding. These couplers are machined from weldable grades of materials such as A.I.S.I. 1018, 1030, 1035 or St 52.5, depending
on rebar size. The couplers are usually arc welded to the structural steel in a fabricating shop. The design of the weld, the selection
of electrode and other relevant choices depend on the chemical and physical properties of the structural steel to which the couplers
are welded.
LENTON Position Couplers
LENTON P14 position couplers splice two curved, bent or straight bars when neither bar can be rotated and where the on-going bar
is free to move in its axial direction. A typical application for position couplers is splicing pile cages. The P14 position couplers can be
supplied in two pieces for application against form work. The female parallel thread is corrosion protected and is provided with a
plastic screw-in protection cap.
