Robust, high quality ties
RMD offer a comprehensive
range of tie systems to suit your job requirements
either for use with RMD construction equipment or
for your own equipment.
Our stocking policy and extensive
global distribution network ensure ready availability
for your most urgent requirements.
1. She-Bolt System
This system is ideally suited for large areas of
crane handled forms, timber or steel, as the whole
assembly of the she-bolt, tie rod and she-bolt,
can be passed through both faces of the form from
one side.
Manufactured from high tensile steel with rolled
BSW thread, crimped to prevent rotation of the tie
when the she-bolt is removed. Length from 50mm in
increments of 25mm up to 600mm.
2. Rapid Tie System
The RMD Rapid Tie System is a "through" tie system
in which the bar passes entirely through the formwork,
waler plates, cone and tube assembly, locked in
position with the knock-on wing nut threaded on
to each end of the tie bar.
The expendable tube not only acts as a spacer ensuring
the correct width of wall required, but also allows
easy removal of the tie bar after pouring. Only
one knock-on wing nut has to be removed to allow
quick stripping of the tie assembly.
3. RMD Rapid Anchor
The RMD Rapid Anchor allows a cast-in fixing into
concrete to connect directly to the Rapid Tie System.
It comprises a special nut tapped to suit 15mm Rapid
Tie which is encased in plastic. A circular steel
washer increases the bearing area in the concrete.
This cast-in anchor is designed to transmit axial
forces into previously cast work.
Rapid Tie She Bolt
The RMD Rapid Tie She Bolt allows
the Rapid Tie System to be used as a non-recoverable
(embedded) tie. The advantages of the 'lost' Tie
and She Bolt system are known to users of The RMD
High Tensile System. A particular advantage on double-faced
formwork is the ability to pass the assembled tie
system through both formwork faces from one side
after the forms have been erected.
The She Bolt System can also be used on single face
formwork, e.g. in connections into rock faces etc.,
and for second fix connections into existing walls.
The Rapid Tie She Bolt is designed to give 50mm
cover to the 'lost' Rapid Tie. |
