ReidBar™ Grout Sleeve System

The ReidBar™ Grout Sleeve system provides a reliable, full-strength splice for reinforcing bars, enabling fast and consistent reinforcement continuity in precast concrete construction.

Engineered specifically for the task, it eliminates the modification and congestion issues associated with drossbach ducts, reducing installation effort, material use, and onsite labour.

Supported by CodeMark certification (BRANZ-CM-1024) and comprehensive technical guidance, the system delivers assured compliance and efficient construction joints between precast elements.

  • Full-strength reinforcing splice. Provides a full-strength mechanical splice that maintains reinforcement continuity between load-bearing precast elements.
  • Engineered system. no modification required Purpose-designed components eliminate the need for modifying drossbach ducts or grout tubes, reducing production effort and installation errors.
  • Minimises reinforcement congestion Compact geometry reduces congestion and panel thickness compared with drossbach ducts, enabling more efficient precast designs.
  • Safer onsite handling with shorter embedment. Short embedment lengths remove long protruding starter bars, significantly improving onsite safety and handling.
  • Reduces overall construction costs. Lowers material, grout, labour, and installation costs by removing confinement, reducing grout volume, and simplifying assembly.
  • Independently certified for compliance Holds CodeMark certification (BRANZ-CM-1024) and BRANZ Appraisal 1084, providing verified compliance with NZBC when used within scope.
  • Verified ductile performance System is engineered so failure occurs in the ReidBar clear of the connection, giving designers confidence in predictable, ductile structural behaviour.
  • Supported by comprehensive installation guidance Backed by available checklists, procedures, and detailed installation documentation that remove guesswork and improves quality assurance.
