High-capacity, reusable, gangform tie that spreads the tie spacing and reduces the number of ties
Taper Ties are used in forming situations where the ties are completely removed from the concrete after the pour has cured. Commonly used with gangform systems, Taper Ties enable contractors to efficiently assemble and strip formwork.
Taper Ties are squared-off at each end, allowing the tie to be turned with a wrench during the removal process. The tie can also be struck on the squared-off end of the smaller side with a hammer for removal from the gangform and wall.
