Advantages
of the "STEEL-WICH® METHOD":
- Increases a Mason's Productivity and Reduces Labor costs,
with NO overrun costs whatsoever!
- No Overhead lifting of heavy block over Rebar, "No
Rebar in your face"!
- Ability to install reinforcing steel with limited overhead
clearance through the use of "Telescoping Rod Action".
- Eliminates Rebar Waste, by accurate and secure placement
method.
- Provides superior structural strength in masonry wall
construction by precise location of vertical reinforcing
steel.
- Full tensile strength of rebar may be realized, thus
meeting specified building codes and designs.
- Eliminates the need to grout block wall cores in sections
and allows for a monolithic pour of grout.
- Block integrity preserved, no waste of grout, controls
the flow of grout, and provides containment within the
vertical core.
- Selective vertical and horizontal positioning of rebar
possible, ensuring natural and mechanical bonds with grout.
- Allows vertical Rebar to "cross" horizontal
bond beam rebar at the top of masonry walls.
- No problems with mechanical systems interfering with
reinforcing steel.
- Customize Rebar reinforcement on every job, without
the extra cost.
Three sizes available - electro plated finish:
374-S
for #3 and #4 bar
374-L for #5 and #6 bar
374-XL for #7 and #8 bar
