Specials - cut to your requirements, length to suit, in Stainless Steel or Zinc Plated, with or without threads to M12, M16, M20 and M25 20mm diameter Steel Re-bar in a complicated reinforced repair, before resin pour | ![]() |
| Example - Timber-Resin Splices - beam end repair kits | |
| Beams can be repaired using Timber-Resin Splices (TRS) which are new, laminated to size matching timber repair pieces with Zinc Plated Steel threaded bar, pre-bonded into the connection ends (Types C and D). | ![]() |
| Epoxy-Glass Bars - glassfibre composite | |
|
Epoxy-Glass Bars - as extensively tested and proven over the last 20 years, these bars feature in the long term evaluation carried out in the UK and Europe, which has resulted in the development of EUROCODE 5, a design and specification handbook for the use of resins in composite repairs in buildings (price, £15). The Epoxy-Glass bars are available in the following diameters;
They can be ordered cut to length. They can be use to tie and link timbers and masonry.
