Splice Sleeve North America
NMB Splice Sleeve is the pioneer of the grouted mechanical coupler for splicing reinforcing bars that uses a cylindrical-shaped sleeve filled with a portland cement-based non-shrink high early strength grout. Reinforcing bars to be spliced are inserted into the sleeve to meet approximately at the center of the sleeve. The interior of the sleeve is then filled with SS Mortar grout. No bar end preparation such as threading is necessary—just slide the bar into the sleeve and grout it to complete the connection. This process, called “Emulation,” makes the reinforcing bars continuous through the connection. NMB Splice Sleeve is ideal for precast and cast-in-place concrete construction. It’s specifically designed to facilitate constructions at the jobsite and greatly reduce construction time.
