Reidbar
Reidbar is Grade 500 reinforcing bar with deformations rolled into a continuous coarse thread, providing the same structural performance as conventional N-grade bars of the same diameter.
This continuous coarse thread provides the unique advantage of simple on-site connections, where the bar can be cut to any length and retain threaded ends for reinforcement continuity in structural concrete. Without the need for tapping threads, Reidbar retains its steel diameter and structural integrity.
- Guaranteed ductility for all connections in columns, beams, and slabs.
- Increased productivity and versatility on site.
- Reduces bar congestion problems such as laps and cogs in heavily reinforced sections.
Reidbar Couplers
Reidbar Couplers allow simple connections of Reidbar in a structure, providing continuity of reinforcement throughout.
Continuously threaded Reidbar allows versatility on site, where Reidbar can be cut at any point and coupled simply and easily, without need for re-tapping threads, lapping, or splicing.
The coarse thread of Reidbar makes connections quicker and easier, with less concern of foreign matter blocking the thread.
- Develops full yield strength of Reidbar.
- Provides continuity of reinforcement throughout a concrete structure.
- Coarse thread less likely to be damaged or impeded by foreign matter.
- Coarse thread allows increased speed of installation.
- No thread re-tapping, lapping or splicing required to connect reinforcement.
