Chaglla Dam is a hydroelectric dam built on the Huallaga River in the Huánuco region of Peru. The dam stands 203 meters high and has a maximum installed capacity of 456 MW.

For this major dam project, Dextra consistently supplied its Rolltec rebar coupler solution to Brazilian contractor Odebrecht from 2012 to 2015.

Rolltec is the most popular rebar splicing solution in Latin America, offering a competitive alternative to lap splices.

Rebar preparation is supported by a unique lightweight machine, which can be operated by a single person. The Rolltec machine is relatively easy to transport and convenient to install, even in remote locations such as dam construction sites.

Beyond just couplers and equipment, Dextra also took charge of machine commissioning and operator training, ensuring the contractor’s team made the most of their rebar coupler solution.
