Dowel Cradles

Product description: Dowel Cradles are prefabricated load transfer systems designed to facilitate accurate dowel placement in concrete joints, ensuring superior structural integrity. Engineered to meet AU/NZ standards, these dowel cradles come in various sizes to accommodate different dowel diameters and lengths, typically available in 3m lengths.

The cradles are constructed from durable materials, offering robust performance even under rigorous conditions. Each dowel cradle is equipped with positioning wires and load transfer apparatus, ensuring precise alignment and spacing, which significantly reduces vertical displacement and prevents cracking in concrete slabs.

Dowel Cradle are ideal for use in contraction joints, where they allow for slab movement while maintaining load transfer. They are self-supporting and can be adjusted to the required height using a stake system. These cradles can also be used with both temporary and permanent capping profiles, providing versatility for various construction applications.
