Danley® Dowel
Save time – Does not require the drilling or processing time associated with round dowels and allows fast stripping of timber shutters
Easy to install – Pre-packaged with all components and simple installation to shutters
Superior Joints – Minimised restraint and high load transfer across slabs (>90%) with exceptional long-term joint stability (<0.25 mm deflection possible)
To reduce restraint for construction joint applications in concrete industrial floors and pavements, Danley has created the Danley® Dowel. This tapered plate dowel and sleeve system promotes load transfer across the joint and minimises differential deflection between adjacent slab panels.
Engineered as a fast fix to timber form system, Danley® Dowels deliver impressive cost and time savings onsite, by removing the need for drilling or processing of formwork.
Pre-packaged with all the components required for installation, Danley® Dowels are available in 6mm and 10mm thicknesses.
Features
- Secure attachment to forms: Thanks to nailing flange with double-headed nails
- Easier form stripping: Double headed nails help the sleeve to stay in place
- Install dowel after forms are stripped: Plastic sleeve allows dowels to be installed afterwards
- Choice of thicknesses: Available in 6mm and 10mm thicknesses
