THREADLESS COUPLERS

A REAL IMPROVEMENT IN COUPLING GROUND RODS

The Industry is rapidly moving to 
DeMARK "threadless" couplers 
to splice groundrods in applications requiring more than 8' of depth. The old "threaded" and "exothermic" concepts do not provide the best connections and economics that are found in the DeMARK products.

DeMARK COUPLERS
are high strength specially designed units that will work with copper,
galvanized or stainless steel ground rods from .44" through 1.00" diameters.

To use the coupler only requires slipping it over the end of a ground rod after the rod has been
driven into the ground; and then inserting the additional rod in the other end. The impact force of
driving the second rod will force fit the two rods securely into the coupler providing an excellent
connection.
