ReidBar™ Threaded Inserts

ReidBar™ Threaded Inserts are engineered headed anchors designed to provide full‑strength anchorage for ReidBar™ reinforcing in thin concrete elements where conventional embedment or hooked bars are not feasible. Independently tested to deliver bar‑break performance, these inserts offer a reliable structural connection that maximises the capacity of the ReidBar™ system. Their compact geometry ensures efficient use in precast panels, wall elements, beams, and slab‑to‑slab connections, particularly where limited cover or high reinforcement congestion would otherwise restrict detailing.

By eliminating the need for bent or cogged bars, ReidBar™ Threaded Inserts improve constructability, reduce steel congestion as well as labour demands, and minimise on‑site safety risks associated with manual bar bending.

They provide a versatile, cost‑effective connection method for achieving structural anchorage in both in‑situ and precast construction.

  • Full‑strength headed anchorage for thin elements Provides secure anchorage in thin‑walled concrete sections, developing the full strength of the ReidBar™ reinforcement.
  • Enables structural connections with minimal embedment Compact foot geometry allows anchorage without requiring long straight development lengths or hooked bars.
  • “Bar‑break” engineered performance Designed so failure occurs in the ReidBar™ itself rather than the insert, ensuring predictable, ductile structural behaviour.
  • Reduces reinforcement congestion Eliminates the need for hooked or cogged bars, simplifying reinforcement cages in thin walls, panels, and slabs.
  • Faster installation compared to bent bar solutions Avoids manual bar bending, reduces fabrication steps, and accelerates construction cycles—particularly in precast and high‑rise projects.
  • Suitable for a wide range of applications Ideal for beams, columns, slab‑to‑slab connections, core walls, and thin wall panels.
  • Eliminates re‑threading or post‑processing Fully compatible with continuously threaded ReidBar™. No machining, tapping, or thread preparation required.
  • Available in multiple bar sizes and finishes Offered in black or galvanised versions for RB12–RB20 bars, supporting durability and design flexibility.
