Carnie Cap Rebar Protection

Carnie Cap is the most effective way to cap exposed rebar and reduce the danger of worker impalement. Our unique approach only requires two units for every eight feet of coverage, and can withstand the impact of a 250lb weight dropped from a height of 7 1/2ft! By eliminating job-site injuries, installation time and inventory overhead, Carnie Cap will protect your bottom line.

The CARNIE CAP™ system allows builders to comply with OSHA standards which includes the requirement of withstanding a 250-pound weight dropped from 7.5 feet without the rebar breaking through. In fact, CARNIE CAP™ was successfully tested with a 10-foot drop. The system works using only two CARNIE CAPs™ for every eight linear feet of rebar. If you’re in California, CAL-OSHA requires spacing every four linear feet and doubling the thickness of the lumber.

The CARNIE CAP™ system comes in two sizes – the standard size (#C-100) for #4 - #9 rebar using nominal 2”x4”s or 4”x4”s and the large size (#CC-200) for #5 - #16 rebar using nominal 2”x6”s.

Mr. Carnicle sold all rights to the Carnie Cap System™ in 2004 but the tradition of excellence carries on. The new owners feel fortunate to carry forward this innovative, life saving device to the construction trade.
