The LENTON® FORM SAVER ANCHOR is Ideal for Applications With Limited Space

The LENTON FORM SAVER ANCHOR is a method of splicing rebar in segmental concrete construction applications that have limited space or rebar congestion.

The LENTON® FORM SAVER ANCHOR is a method of splicing rebar in segmental concrete construction applications that have limited space or rebar congestion, such as walls, stairwells, pre-cast wall panels, floor slab-to-wall connections and beam column connections. The LENTON FORM SAVER ANCHOR eases form placement, speeds construction, reduces congestion and eliminates protruding dowels and the need to drill holes in expensive formwork.

 

The coupler is friction welded to the headed anchor/shear stud and a factory-installed cap protects the internal threads from being filled with concrete and debris. It is available in sizes #4 (12 mm) and #5 (16 mm) in lengths of 6”, 7” and 8” and is manufactured in the US with domestically produced steel.

 

Typically used in wall applications, the LENTON FORM SAVER ANCHOR easily attaches to the front wall form panel and fits into the wall reinforcement mat more easily than hooked rebar. When the form is stripped, the protected threaded end of the coupler is exposed on the wall face. Simply remove the protective cap, insert the LENTON® taper threaded dowel bar and tighten with a standard pipe wrench. For added convenience, installation instructions are included with the product.

 

The LENTON FORM SAVER ANCHOR conforms with ASTM® A29/A29M and the headed anchor/shear stud is C-1010/C-1020 AWSD1.1 and ASTM-A108 compliant. The bar-to-coupler connection is recognized by or meets the standards of ACI® 318; IBC®, UBC®-97; AASHTO® Section 8.32.2.3; Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute; US Army Corp. of Engineers #CW03210; and DOTs including CA, FL, GA, IL, NY, NC and TX.
