Rebar Locators

Rebar Locators
Non-Destructive Rebar Location Equipment
Rebar locators (or rebar detectors) and cover meters are instruments that are used to find positioning of steel reinforcement bars in concrete and other non-metallic materials. The ability to pinpoint rebars and other subsurface metal location is critical to avoid damage when cutting, drilling or coring. more »

Rebar Locators, continued
Different types of rebar locators may be chosen depending on the use in a particular project. These instruments can quickly and accurately locate, orient and measure the depth of cover over rebars.
Humboldt offers a large selection of rebar locators and concrete cover meters, from basic models to the latest in digital technology. We provide rebar locators and cover meters to fit almost any application and budget, from Proceq and Zircon.
The HC-2983A Proceq Profoscope+ is a versatile, integrated rebar detector and cover meter that features real-time rebar visualization with the added ability to estimate diameter within the specified testing range. This meter provides the unique ability to provide the center point between two bars, indicating the place to drill. The compact, lightweight device can record measurement data manually or automatically.
The HC-2981A Profometer 600 is perfect for contractors and also for inspection engineers to locate rebars and assess concrete cover values and rebar sizes for spot checking. Graphical displays of measured values and minimum cover set appear directly on the screen.
The more sophisticated HC-2982A Series Profometer Rebar Locators (PM-630 and PM-650) are enhanced with single-line, multi-line and area scan modes, with an extensive choice of statistical views for quality check and resistance assessments, or corrosion analysis on large elements.
The HC-2986 Zircon MT 6 Rebar Locator is an economical choice for less demanding rebar location operations with the ability to locate both ferrous and non-ferrous metal up to six inches (152mm) deep in concrete and other non-metallic surfaces.
The budget-friendly HC-2969 Zircon MetalliScanner® MT 7 Rebar Locator is used to find and avoid rebar in concrete before drilling, for finding pipes and junction boxes behind tile, and even detect nails in studs behind plaster walls. The unit features a bright, backlit display and standard and DeepScan modes.
