SuperTie™ Patented Coil Rod Series
SuperTie™ patented fiberglass form-tie systems are used to secure concrete formwork during concrete placement and initial hydration, without the inherent limitations of previously popular steel form-tie systems. SuperTie™ systems eliminate the possibility of rust stains, as well as the structural deterioration often caused by failure of patching for steel form-tie holes.
SuperTie™ CRFF 0500 (1/2”)
SuperTie™ Coil Rod Form Fixture 1/2” offers an ultimate tensile strength of 15,000 pounds (7,500 pounds safe working load at 2:1 safety factor) and is most commonly used with job-built (plywood and 2×4) forms and handset modular forms. The fiberglass rod diameter is 1/2” making the system compatible with most commercial forming systems.
SuperTie™ Bearing Plate BP615
The Bearing Plate is a required component with the SuperTie Coil Rod Form Fixture. The BP615 is a 4”x4” steel plate with a 5/8”-diameter hole and fits the 1/2″ Coil Rod.
Non-Corrosive Fiberglass Coil Rod
RJD Fiberglass Coil Rod (1/2”) utilizes a specially blended and formulated custom-engineered resin, made in the USA, combining ultimate tensile strength and the RJD Form Fixture (CRFF) strength. )Do not use any non-RJD engineered rod with RJD grippers; this could result in form failure and/or injury.) RJD Fiberglass Coil Rod will never rust, eliminating the need for breakback, plugging, and patching and allowing for superior architectural finishes.
