HRC 500 Series Splicing System is designed to exceed the capacity, stress and strain, tension, compression and full plastic, cyclic loading of A706 and A615 reinforcing steel. Specified as 175% fy, Xtender Splice will ensure available ductility from the rebar whenever it will be needed. It can be used as a standard coupler, splicing new reinforcement to existing bars in a retrofit project, or as a position/transition coupler splicing multiple bars in pre-tied reinforcing cages. The reliable performance and simple quality control of the splice makes it less sensitive to field conditions.
Exceeds all specifications including Caltrans Ultimate Splice Criteria and 1997 Uniform Building Code™ (UBC) criteria for Type 2 splice for seismic areas 2, 3, and 4.
Transition coupler available. For information on HRC 500 Series for #18, CLICK HERE.
HRC 500 XL / 510 XL Series is a special lengthened version of the HRC 500/510 couplers used in situations where the gap between butt splice ends varies up to 1". For more information CLICK HERE.
