With the Right Rebar Detector, Reinforced Concrete is Virtually See-Through

By using a top-of-the-line electromagnetic or radar-using rebar detector, reinforced concrete can be probed to uncover the location of the metalwork housed inside. This is an essential first-step when performing maintenance on any reinforced concrete structure.

Rebar Detector, Reinforced Concrete

Also known as rebar locators, these devices offer the most effective and efficient method of finding steel reinforcing bars and metal pipes in concrete structures. This type of detection should be performed before the beginning of any maintenance, to ensure the safety and security of both the concrete structure and those performing the work.

Anyone who's ever mistakenly drilled into metal piping knows how messy and costly the result can be. Drilling into reinforcing bar is even more serious, as it can lead to significant structural damage.

Rebar detectors can perform a rapid and reliable determination of location, concrete cover and measurements of rebar in reinforced structures.

A nationwide supplier like White Cap is perfectly positioned to help you choose from the wide variety of rebar locators available on the market today.

Whether you're looking for a detector that uses an electromagnetic field or ground-penetrating radar to locate steel and other objects within a structure, White Cap can help you find a product that will yield accurate results.
