“They work really well. I placed some early last week and they’re all still on. We’ve had up to 25mph wind and the regular ones have fallen off while the varicaps have held on!”

It’s patented design makes it safer.

The VariCap doesn’t deform when installed due to its patented design.

When a rebar cap becomes deformed it no longer fits properly and ends up falling onto the ground. Craft use duct tape and tire wire to try and get them to stay on which is inefficient and costly.

Well no more! VariCap’s stay on in vertical and horizontal applications every time you use them. Set it and forget it.

“Appreciate you checking in. Yes the guys love them. Arturo is holding them like gold. One of my foreman’s actually just made a comment on Friday that Arturo doesn’t want to give up those new caps for nothing. He will let you have the old ones but new ones are off limits. We get a few more jobs rolling in the next month or two I will be buying some more. You guys were great at the show and I love to do business with good, honest, made in America folks!!!”

“We love the caps – they have worked great… we like their versatility and especially appreciate how resilient they are to the west Texas winds.”

Put a “cap” on your labor cost.

Up to 3x’s faster to install than traditional rebar caps. Maintenance free and don’t require duct tape, tie wire, or zip ties to stay on.

Oklahoma State University case study

As shown in the chart below, the VariCap’s last longer than traditional caps. At a minimum of 1000 uses on all size bars (as shown), if you used a VariCap once a week it will last you 20 years. Read more on the rebar cap case study.

With an average use rate of 1000 uses you have to replace other caps 10x’s before replacing a VariCap.

Why buy 10 when you can buy 1 VariCap!

“If you want to make sure ‘no one gets hurt’, use VariCap’s.”

We know what it’s like…

To have rebar caps fall off leaving people exposed to impalement hazards. How often have you tried to re-install a cap that has fallen off and can’t because it’s destroyed? You don’t carry the necessary tools to bandaid it back on. That’s why we’ve spent years of research and development to design the perfect rebar cap that won’t deform and fall off. If you can relate to the frustration of constant maintenance, then we can help you create a lean, efficient, safer job site by using the VariCap.

Product Overview

The VariCap is an impalement protection cap that was designed by a construction professional. This impalement protection safety device is intended to protect workers from lacerations and falls from height. Tested to CAL/OSHA standard 344.90.

The yellow end cap that stabilizes the cap on the bar or other hazard is replaceable if it ever becomes damaged for any reason. You simply take the damaged one off and push on a new one. The replacement caps can be purchased separately.

Uses

The Varicap is designed to be used at or above grade. It is designed to protect against impalement from a maximum fall height not to exceed 7 1/2’. It can be used on rebar #4-#11.

Quality Assurance

The VariCap is an impalement protection device. It is designed to be used multiple times on multiple job sites without deformation. The VariCap must be inspected before every use. If the orange base is damaged in any way, please discard immediately. The yellow end cap that stabilizes the cap on the bar or other hazard is replaceable if it ever becomes damaged for any reason. You simply remove the yellow end cap from the orange base and push a new one on. The replacement caps can be purchased separately.

Sustainability

The construction industry has a responsibility to build for the greater good. In our journey to green planet construction we can help lower your total embodied carbon footprint by diverting the total number of rebar caps from landfills. Because the VariCap is reusable many times over our products life cycle is much longer than traditional caps and our replaceable end caps are recyclable. Even the little things can make a difference.

“The VariCaps all go on the same way every time because they don’t deform.  They save on labor which saves money.  They also boost moral on the job because they just don’t fall off like most caps.”
