ROUND DOWELS


The Round Dowel System has an extensive history throughout Australasia and consists of two parts. The first being a high quality, high density plastic round dowel sleeve. The second being a high quality plastic reusable nail on base plate.

The Round Dowel System enables round dowels to be cast into new slabs without having to penetrate formwork, thus eliminating damage to the forms. This design also increases the accuracy of the dowel alignment, a critical detail when using round dowel bars.

The sleeve eliminates the need to grease or tape round dowel bars and limits compression. The built in internal end cap will stop any ingress of grout while allowing for any slab expansion so additional expansion caps are not required.

This is achieved by the sleeve gnerating a precise void in the concrete into which the round dowel can be inserted at the optimum time of construction. The round sleeve can also be used in Dowel Ladders, Dowel Baskets or anywhere a round dowel is specified.

 

Round Dowels are quick and easy to install with the reusable nail on base plate and can also be used on existing dowels if required

NOTE: Round dowels do not allow lateral movement. If in doubt, contact your local Representative for confirmation on the appropriate system for use.
