Formwork Accessories

MINGLEI, one of the leading formwork accessories suppliers, recognizes that many clients have existing product inventories or their own designs and may only need specific formwork accessories, such as shoring props, H20 timber beams, formwork plywood, or plastic hollow boards, among others.

What are aluminum formwork accessories?

concrete shuttering accessories are supplementary components used in construction to support and enhance formwork systems. These construction building components play crucial roles in ensuring the stability, alignment, and efficiency of the formwork during concrete casting and curing processes. Common formwork accessories include:

Form Ties: The form plastic concrete form ties panels together, maintaining alignment and stability.

Formwork Clamps: Secure formwork panels to the support structure, preventing movement during concrete placement.

Wedges: Adjust and tighten formwork shuttering accessories to ensure proper alignment and support.

Formwork Braces: Reinforce and stabilize formwork systems, especially in tall or complex structures.

Scaffolding Brackets: concrete formwork brackets support temporary scaffolding & formwork platforms attached to formwork.

Anchor Bolts: Embed into concrete to secure formwork panels and support elements.

Spacers: Maintain the specified distance between formwork panels and reinforcement bars.

Formwork Release Agents: Applied to formwork surfaces to prevent adhesion between formwork and cured concrete, facilitating easy removal.

What Materials are Used to Produce Formwork Accessories?

Shuttering tie bars by MINGLEI are typically manufactured using materials chosen for their strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. Common materials include:

Steel: Used for concrete form ties, clamps, braces, and anchor bolts due to its high strength and load-bearing capacity.

Plastic: Utilized for spacers, wedges, and scaffolding formwork brackets for its lightweight properties and resistance to moisture and chemicals.

Aluminum: Employed for some formwork accessories due to its lightweight nature, corrosion resistance, and ease of handling.

Rubber or silicone: Used in formwork release agents for their non-stick properties and ease of application.
