Mechanical Anchors, often called headed bars, are secured to the end of a length of reinforcing steel bar (rebar), creating anchorage within the concrete. This approach greatly simplifies reinforcing bar placement and reduces congestion. Headed bars are often used as a replacement for hooked bars. nVent provides a variety of headed bar solutions including the nVent LENTON Taper-Threaded Terminator. The nVent LENTON Taper-Threaded Terminator incorporates the time-tested and field-proven nVent LENTON tapered thread to attach the “head” to the reinforcing bar.

Typical applications for nVent LENTON Taper-Threaded Terminator include beam to column, roof to column, piles to caisson, and future extensions. nVent LENTON Terminator is ideal for all forms of construction including dams, subways, bridges, high-rise buildings, water treatment plants and stadiums.
