Reinforcement connections
The HALFEN HSC Stud Connector has been specially developed as an economical, tension reinforcement solution for corbels and frame nodes. The special shape of the anchor head with its innovative anchorage capability allows full exploitation of the reinforcement with extremely short anchorage lengths.
The MBT Reinforcement coupler is a mechanical sleeve connection for reinforcement steel. A tension- and compression-resistant connection of the reinforcement bars is achieved by clamping; no pre-treatment of the bars is required; no thread cutting, no crimping, no swaging, no welding.

Reinforcement Couplers
Replacing damaged rebar using MBT
HSC Stud Connector
- 12-25 mm diameters
- Standard lengths in-stock
- Freely selectable custom lengths
- Can be used in combination with the HBS-05 Screw connector
MBT Standard socket
Damaged or corroded reinforcement bars are easily replaced. Connecting old reinforcement to the reinforcement of a new build is just as easy.
MBT Reducing socket
Reducing socket to connect bar ends with different diameters.
MBT End anchoring
End anchors are especially suitable for the following applications: End anchoring of reinforcing steel, end anchoring in pile cages, rock anchors, pressure distribution plates and as weld-on sockets.
HSC Stud Connector
- 100% anchorage with forged anchor heads
- Extremely short anchorage lengths thanks to forged anchor heads
- Reduction of costly reinforcement stirrups by using straight rebar anchors
- Effective anchoring reduces the amount of steel required
- Quick installation and increased reliability with simple reinforcement layout
- Reliable planning with building authority approval in accordance with EC 2
- Easy planning with free calculation software
- Can be used in combination with HBS-05 Screw connectors – simplifies the formwork required for walls and columns. Corbels can be screw-connected after removing the formwork
- No special tools required for the screw connections, high application reliability and faster build time – a visual check is enough to verify correct installation
- Anchor heads can be oriented horizontally and vertically for optimum use of space
- Versatile with an extensive product range
MBT Reinforcement coupler
- No preparation of the rebar ends required
- Bolts with a predetermined torque shear off head provide reliable confirmation of correct installation
- Efficient and economical installation using standard tools and with low predetermined shear-off bolts
- The wide range of standard sockets, reducing and end anchors allow for reliable planning and versatile application
- Especially suitable for renovation and extension projects
MBT Reinforcement coupler
- Friction-locked compression and tension connections
- 12-40 mm diameters
- DIBt* Building authority approved
- Approved for different diameters and types of reinforcing steel
- Also approved for predominantly non static loads
- Numerous country-specific approvals and survey reports assure use according to international standards
