LENTONÂ® FORM SAVER Anchor

The LENTONÂ® FORM SAVER Anchor mechanical rebar splicing system is a method of splicing rebar in segmental concrete construction applications. The coupler is friction welded to a headed anchor/shear stud and a reinforcing bar has LENTONÂ® tapered threads that match the coupler. When the form is stripped, the end of the coupler is exposed. Simply remove the protective cap and screw in the taper threaded male dowel bar. Tightening with a pipe wrench is recommended to help assure a no slip connection or possible loosening during concrete vibration. This system eliminates bent bar anchorages, protruding dowels and the need to drill holes in expensive formwork.
