nVent LENTON Speed Sleeve is the ideal mechanical splice for compression-only steel reinforcement applications. The system is designed to allow compressive loads to be transferred by aligning square cut reinforcing steel bar (rebar) ends to bear on one another.
Features
- Can be used on bundled bars
- Positive end bearing maintained - does not depend on weight of bar to keep ends in contact
- Transition splices can be made using simple adaptor inserts
- Fast one-man installation for reduced job cost
- Easy to use
- Easily removed and reused
- Self supporting; no tack welding is needed
- Reinforcing bars can be individually secured - compensates for reinforcing bar size variation and out-of-roundness
