The crimping tech is the key of the system, instead of using a 3rd party universal-purpose press (mostly crimpers for hose industry), we developed our own crimping machine which makes the crimping much faster and most of all much more accurate. The Precise metering system controls the crimping accuracy to 0.1 mm for the best interlock between the rebar and the coupler, combining the improved coupler material property, our system ensures the high performance as well as reliability.
Performance
The crimping process does not reduce the sectional area of the rebar and even the rebar itself remains intact to ensure the ultimate capacity of the rebar is maintained. The interlock between the rebar and the coupler is permanent so it’s even good for seismic loads.
The sectional area of the thread on BP couplers is greater than that of the rebar, the additional capacity of the coupler strength meets the high performance requirements in areas subject to effects of seismic activity and dynamic situations.
Applications
Thanks to the nature of the permanent interlock from the crimping process, the BP rebar splice system is designed and manufactured in accordance with most of the popular standards such as AS 3600, AS 5100, ISO 15835, Eurocode2, BS 8110, DIN 1045, ACI 318, IBC, AASHTO, ASME Sec III Div 2. etc. and suitable for use in stadiums, bridges, dams, power plants and high-rise buildings for normal and seismic loads.
