Ancon Eazistrip
Reinforcement Continuity
Eazistrip Non-Standard Range
Eazistrip Reinforcement Continuity Systems are designed to maintain continuity of reinforcement at construction joints in concrete. Formwork design is simplified and there is no need to drill shuttering. Each unit consists of a galvanised steel casing which is dimpled to provide an effective concrete bond. Pre-bent bars are housed within the box and are secured by a protective heavy duty plasticised cardboard cover. When the cover is removed the bars can be straightened ready for lapping onto the main reinforcement.
Re-bending Tool
Bars must be straightened only once, using an Eazistrip re-bending tool.
Quality Assurance
Ancon Eazistrip has UK CARES Technical Approval, TA2-5017.
The system is manufactured using CARES approved bar. The type of reinforcement is selected by Ancon to provide a suitable degree of ductility, ensuring that it complies with the tensile requirements of BS 4449: 2005 Grade B500C after prefabrication and re-bending on site. The bars are bent in accordance with BS 8666: 2005.
Eazistrip Reinforcement Continuity Systems are suitable for use with designs undertaken in accordance ith BS EN 1992-1-1: 2004 (Eurocode 2) and BS 8110-1:1997.
Leviat is able to manufacture according to your specific bar arrangement. The most common shapes are shown below.

CE, UKCA and CE UKNI marking from Leviat
From January 1st 2021, the UK will recognise both the EU CE marking approvals, for a time limited period, and the new UK based approval system, which will be known as the UKCA mark. The EU will only recognise CE marking by EU notified bodies as proof of efficacy moving forwards. Leviat has been working closely with both EU notified and UK approved bodies to ensure compliance is achieved at the earliest possible opportunity and we can confirm that we have obtained all relevant certification.
