Rebar Shape Codes
A key resource we offer is our Shape Codes catalogue, based on the BS 8666 standard. These codes—ranging from Shape Code 00 to 29—define specific bar-bending geometries and provide formulas for calculating cut lengths accurately. For example, Codes 00 and 01 represent straight bars, while others like Code 23 detail complex double-radius bends. Each shape includes clear diagrams and calculation formulas that account for dimensions, radii, and bar diameters, ensuring precision in fabrication.
Our Shape Codes help streamline the design and ordering process, reduce onsite cutting and welding, and minimise material waste. To support our clients, we’ve made the entire catalogue available online, complete with downloadable PDFs and detailed instructions. This makes it easy for engineers, contractors, and project managers to match their requirements with the correct codes before placing an order.
Stand-Offs - Concrete Spacers
Stand-off’s refers to spacers which are used to create a void between the surrounding earth and the rebar and mesh being installed.
Concrete Spacers
Blubay’s range of spacers made of fibre reinforced concrete insure that the concrete cover specified for structures and structural elements made of reinforced concrete is adhered to, both before and during conreting. Our fibre reinforced concrete products provide high compressive strength, water impemeability and first resistance as well as appilication stablity guaranteening the durability of the concrete surface
HyChairs Spacers
These wire spacers ensure accurate positioning of reinforcement, maintaining uniform concrete cover and structural integrity. Designed for efficient installation, our HyChairs simplify on-site use while reducing manual adjustment. This product complements our broader portfolio of reinforcement accessories—including rebar shapes, standoffs, mesh, and plastic or concrete spacers—to offer whole-site support solutions for construction projects.
Plastic Spacer SD
We at H.W. Andrews (trading via 24r.co.uk) supply Plastic Spacer SD as part of our reinforcement accessory range. These durable plastic spacers are designed to ensure consistent concrete cover and precise positioning of rebar in foundations and slabs, helping to uphold structural integrity across a variety of applications 24r+1. Integrated into our comprehensive accessory offering—alongside HyChairs, Standoffs, and Shape Codes—our Plastic Spacer SD supports smooth, efficient placement and quality control on site.
