Rebar reinforcement is important to the structure and integrity of concrete edifices. The strength and durability of steel rebar, while desirable for a structure’s longevity, makes working with rebar very energy intensive work. Various rebar tools are needed for cutting, bending and tying rebar reinforcement. Benner-Nawman Rebar Tools have come up with various implements to reduce the strain on the worker and increase the efficiency and quality of rebar work. From hand-truck to hand-held rebar tools, Brenner-Nawman aims to make rebar work faster and more convenient.
The Benner-Nawman DBC-16H rebar cutter and bender is a hand-held unit designed for on site rebar cutting and bending. This unit is a combination tool that uses electricity and hydraulics to bend and cut rebar. The design was specifically made in order to the user to be able to bend and cut rebar stationary or in-place rebar, as the need arises. This increases the range on which the DBC-16H can work with and manipulate rebar. This allows you to bend and cut rebar, even those protruding from pillars and walls. The added convenience will help in installing new rebar reinforcement as well as rebar maintenance.
The hydraulic system is powerful enough to handle the heavy duty #5 rebar measuring at 16mm with grade 60 rebar. The specifications of the DBC-16H model allow that it can achieve rebar cutting in 3 seconds with a clearance 44.5mm from the surface and can bend rebar up tp180 degrees in 7 seconds with a clearance of 115mm from the surface. For the bending work, the DBC-16H uses a center roller 62 mm in diameter. It is also very durable with a recommended cutting block set replacement at 8000 cuts, as opposed to other leading manufacturers’ 5000 cut recommendation.
The DBC-16H combination rebar cutter and bender’s dimensions measure at 25 1/8 inches in length, 6 3/8 inches in width and 8 5/8 inches in height, including the lifting handles. The tool weighs a total of 40 lbs, allowing for easier handling and manipulation. Its power supply is a 115v electric motor 50/60 Hz – 10 amps, 1050 Watts.
