Bolted coupler without rebar preparation
Unitec® is a bolted splicing system designed for the connection of two rebars which haven’t been previously prepared (no thread).
Each Unitec coupler features a long hollow body which will bond with rebar. Several screws will lock both bar ends and complete the connection.
Unitec is designed to be operated with a standard impact/pneumatic wrench.
