Products For Rebar

No. 374 STEELWICHTM CMU Telecoping Rebar PositionerTM. (Patent Pending)
"The Original Telescoping Rebar Positioner"TM:
This new unique device holds and precisely centers rebar in a block core. The unique STEEL-WICH CMU Telescoping Rebar PositionerTM allows for unlimited vertical movement of the rebar during block wall installation!
The "STEEL-WICH Method"TM:(Patent Pending) Using the CMU Adjustable Rebar Holder, the mason acquires a new capability to "Telescope" rebar during placement. This allows reinforcing steel to be installed with ease, in area of a masonry wall, which was difficult, if not impossible to do before.
Advantages of the "STEEL-WICH Method"TM:

  • Increases a Mason's Productivity and  Reduces Labor costs, with NO overrun costs whatsoever!
  • No Overhead lifting of heavy block over Rebar, "No Rebar in your face"!
  • Ability to install reinforcing steel with limited overhead clearance through the use of "Telescoping Rod Action".
  • Eliminates Rebar Waste, by accurate and secure placement method.
  • Provides superior structural strength in masonry wall construction by precise location of vertical reinforcing steel.
  • Full tensile strength of rebar may be realized, thus meeting specified building codes and designs.
  • Eliminates the need to grout block wall cores in sections and allows for a monolithic pour of grout.
  • Block integrity preserved, no waste of grout, controls the flow of grout, and provides containment within the vertical core.
  • Selective vertical and horizontal positioning of rebar possible, ensuring natural and mechanical bonds with grout.
  • Allows vertical Rebar to "cross" horizontal bond beam rebar at the top of masonry walls.
  • No problems with mechanical systems interfering with reinforcing steel.
  • Customize Rebar reinforcement on every job, without the extra cost.
Two sizes available: 374-S for 1/2" (13 mm) and 5/8" (16 mm) reinforcement rods and 374-L for 3/4" (19 mm), 7/8" 22 mm), and 1" (25 mm) reinforcement rods. Available Plain Steel or Electro Plated.
No. 375 BarLoc® Rebar Connector (U.S. Patent No. 4968176)

The BarLoc® Rebar Connector is a coupling device which joins overlapping rebar inside concrete block. It is a one-piece unit 7" (178mm) long made from 24 gage mill galvanized steel. BarLoc® is designed to accommodate any length of rebar overlap. Available in two sizes, 1/2" for 1/2" rebar and 3/4" for 5/8" and 3/4" rebar.
 
 
Key Features: Helps to assure that both rebar joining and proper required overlap of rebar are accomplished. BarLoc® rotates to facilitate the centering of the rebar inside the block. The BarLoc® increases productivity by saving time and money. It reduces worker fatigue by eliminating the need to lift each block up and over the rebar.
No. 376 Rebar Positioner

Available in Mill galvanized and Hotdip Galvanized for 8" (203 mm), 10" (254 mm), and 12" (305 mm) blocks.
Assists in centering rebar. Eye is 1" (25.4 mm) in diameter.
