GatorBar® Grip™ – The New Name in Sliver-free Composite Rebar!

Jan 2, 2024

AHMEEK, Michigan -- GatorBar, the industry leading composite rebar manufacturer for concrete reinforcement, is excited to announce the release of GatorBar with Grip technology. GatorBar Grip is the latest generation of composite rebar offering zero slivers and increased bond strength. GatorBar Grip is immediately available through its wholesale, distribution and installation partners. 

GatorBar CEO Erik Kiilunen said, “We heard you…sliverless is very important and we delivered.  Frankly, this took longer to bring to the market than we anticipated, so we sincerely appreciate our customers’ patience, but GatorBar Grip is now available. It’s the same reliable bar but with vastly improved handling and tying characteristics as well as better bond strength. Grip represents GatorBar’s continued investment in concrete reinforcement technology while remaining the most economical, highest quality composite available meeting ICC structural requirements.”

  • The most economical non-polyester composite rebar on the market.

  • Significantly increased installation, labor and transportation advantages.
  • 2x stronger in tensile strength than steel.
  • 4x lighter in weight than steel. 
  • Zero slivers and increased bond strength.
