Transition splice
When there is a need to splice bars of different sizes, it is
allowable in most cases to reduce the size of the larger
bar and to use a standard coupler.
However the Bartec system also offers special transition

Weldable couplers
For composite construction where concrete reinforcement
bars must be welded to structural steel, use Bartec weldable
couplers, which are specially made from low carbon steel and
which have a large chamfer for bevel welding.

No reduction of the ductility of the reinforcing bar.
Couplers are individually marked to allow full traceability of the material.
