nVent LENTON LK1110STHD Interlok Position Transition Grout Fill Coupler
Product Information
The NVENT LENTON INTERLOK POSITION TRANSITION GROUT-FILL COUPLER is designed for splicing different diameter bars. It features a positional capability that allows the threaded coupler end to telescope out, closing a gap between forms and enabling alignment of the grout tubes. The coupler has an oversized cavity, providing greater field tolerance. The taper-threaded end helps prevent movement of the reinforcing bars and eliminates misalignment. Additionally, this coupler requires less grout compared to most competitive systems.
