BOLTED MBT COUPLERS

 SURYA MBT Rebar Coupler (Mechanical Bolted Tension Coupler) is a high-performance mechanical splice used for joining TMT reinforcement bars without threading or welding. These couplers are designed for quick and reliable connections, especially in congested areas where bar rotation is not possible.

Our MBT couplers are manufactured from high-grade steel and equipped with special lock-shear bolts that ensure proper tightening and consistent performance. The system provides a strong and durable joint with strength equal to or greater than the parent bar.

Widely used in construction projects such as high-rise buildings, bridges, metro rail, and infrastructure works, MBT couplers help reduce lap length, save steel, and improve structural integrity.

key Features:


  • No threading or welding required
  • Easy installation with standard tools
  • Suitable for already fixed reinforcement bars
  • Lock-shear bolts ensure correct torque
  • High tensile strength (up to 100–115% of bar strength)
  • Saves steel by eliminating lap length
  • Ideal for congested reinforcement areas 

sPECIFICATIONS:
  • material: Mild Steel / Alloy Steel
  • Type: Mechanical Bolted Coupler (MBT)
  • Size Range: 12mm to 40mm
  • Finish: Black / Zinc Plated
  • Tensile Strength: As per IS standards
  • Residential & commercial buildings
  • Bridges & flyovers
  • Metro & infrastructure projects
  • Industrial structures
  • Repair & retrofitting work

    Why MBT Couplers are used ?

    Image
    Why MBT Couplers are used ? 1. Strong mechanical and electrical connection MBT couplers use shear-head bolts that tighten onto the conductor. This ensures: Good electrical conductivity Firm grip that doesn’t loosen easily 2. No special tools required Unlike crimping (which needs hydraulic tools),  MBT couplers: Only need a standard wrench/spanner Are easier to install in field conditions 3. Suitable for different conductor sizes Many MBT couplers are designed to accommodate  a range of cable sizes , making them flexible for installation. 4. Reliable in harsh environments They are usually made from high-strength alloys and are: Corrosion-resistant Suitable for outdoor or underground use Types OF MBT Couplers: LOW Spped MBT Coupler  HIGH Speed MBT Coupler LN Key BOLT MBT Coupler Applications: In construction, MBT (Mechanical Bolt-Type) couplers are mainly used for joining TMT bars (rebars) without welding or threading. These are often called bolted ...

    What is a Step-by-Step Guide to MBT Coupler Installation and Inspection?

    What is a Step-by-Step Guide to MBT Coupler Installation and Inspection? Installing an MBT (Mechanical Bolt) coupler is a straightforward process, but its structural integrity depends entirely on following the correct sequence. Because these rely on friction and mechanical bite rather than threads, precision in the "shear-off" stage is critical. Here is the professional guide for site installation and quality control: Part 1: Installation Steps 1. Preparation and Cleaning Before the coupler touches the steel, the rebar ends must be prepared. Clean the Bar: Remove any loose rust, scale, dirt, or concrete slurry from the ends of the rebars. Check the Cut: While MBT couplers don't require a perfectly square saw cut (unlike some threaded systems),the bar end should be relatively straight to ensure it hits the center stop. 2. Marking the Engagement Depth To ensure the rebar is inserted far enough into the coupler to be gripped by all the bolts: Measure half the length of the...

    How do MBT couplers maintain structural continuity in aging infrastructure?

    How do MBT couplers maintain structural continuity in aging infrastructure? In aging infrastructure, maintaining "structural continuity" is the greatest challenge because you are often dealing with steel and concrete that have been subjected to decades of stress, corrosion, or outdated engineering standards. MBT couplers solve this by acting as a mechanical bridge that treats the old and new steel as a single, uninterrupted unit.  Here is how they maintain that continuity: 1. The Problem: "The Lap Splice Limitation" Length Requirement: Traditional overlaps need a lot of "healthy" steel (often 40x the bar’s diameter). Concrete Damage: If the bar is short, you must chip away deep,structural concrete to find enough rebar to overlap. Corrosion: Rusted bar ends lose their "ribs," meaning they can't "grip" the concrete in a traditional splice. 2. The MBT Solution: "Mechanical Bite" Compact Grip: Full tension is achieved in...
