Strucsol Ultrabar: An engineered solution for masonry repairs & reinforcement
Helical bars play a vital role in masonry repair and reinforcement. Crafted from 304 or 316 grade stainless steel, each bar undergoes cold rolling & cold twisting to further harden the steel and enhance its tensile strength three fold.
1. Purpose and Benefits:
From crack stitching to lintel reinforcement, Ultrabar Helical Bars offer a proven engineered solution for restoring and strengthening masonry structures. These bars are not only affordable but canbe installed without prior experience needed.
By increasing tensile strength and structural stability to brick, block, and stone walls, they increase the structure's ability to absorb changing loads without failure.
2. Versatility:
Helical bars are extremely versatile. They can be cut to any desired length and bent to fit the required shape. Whether reinforcing lintels around windows and doors or providing extra strength in brickwork over footings, parapets, arches, and retaining walls, helical bars increase the only weak element in masonry by adding tensile strength.
3. Installation Recommendations:
For optimal performance, we recommend fitting helical bars with either Strucsol HS Grout or polyester/EASF resin. This ensures an effective bond and enhances the tensile and flexural structure of masonry walls.
4. Available Sizes:
Strucsol Ultrabar Helical Bars comes in the following sizes:
5. Additional Uses:
Beyond crack stitching and lintel repair, helical bars have multiple applications:
At Strucsol, we manufacture a wide range of stainless steel helical bars. in our constant quest for development we have created Ultrabar Composite, a helical bar with 4 times the performance of stainless steel product and a lower carbon footprint. We offer kits tailored to meet your specific requirements such as our Crack Stitch Kits or bulk products for professional repair contractors.
