Dayton 3/8in Superior Plate Yellow Dowel Sleeve (100/Ct)

Dayton 3/8in Superior Plate Yellow Dowel Sleeve (Case of 100)

3/8” Yellow Sleeve Only

Superior Plate Dowel is a 2 piece product consisting of a plastic sleeve and a 4.5” x 4.5” steel plate to transfer loads at the joints of concrete floor slabs. The plastic sleeve, also known as a dowel sleeve, creates cavities for dowels while preventing bonding in concrete placements. Speed dowel sleeves eliminate the need for pre-drilling and are compatible with all types of dowels to increase productivity on the jobsite. These concrete accessories enhance installation efficiency by providing a no-pre-drilling design and color-coded sleeves for easy identification.

The Superior Plate Dowel system provides load transfer at the concrete joint for a smooth slab to slab transition. This product significantly reduces installation time compared to traditional methods.

APPLICATION

Used when a slab to slab transition occurs and concrete joint stability is required. The plastic sleeve is nailed to lumber edge forms and the steel plate slides into the sleeve.

PRODUCT SPECIFICATION

• Superior Plate Dowel for joints up to 1/4” and for concrete slabs such as jointed floors and flatwork.

• Meets ACI 302.1R and ACI 360 when installed properly

• Steel plates meet ASTM A36 requirements for 36 KSI minimum yield strength material.

FEATURES

• Nails are integrated into the sleeve for faster installation to the formwork

• Faster constructability allows for quicker stripping of the formwork

• Slab to slab trip hazards are minimized

• 3 different plate thicknesses with color coded sleeves for ease of use

• All plate dowels are 4.5” x 4.5” square, saving time by eliminating the need for pre-drilling

Product Description: Concrete Accessories

The Speed Dowel Installation System is a game changing solution for proper dowel alignment in concrete construction projects. Compared to the conventional doweling method, the Speed Dowel system reduces installation time and eliminates the need for greasing dowels. This system provides a practical dowel alignment method for load transfer and stress management in concrete slab on ground joints. Made from 100% polypropylene, the Speed Dowel system is a durable and efficient solution for concrete construction. Its rugged design will last for years to come, making it perfect for any construction need. Additionally, the system ensures reliable performance, enhancing durability and efficiency in construction projects.

Key Features

Ensures Proper Dowel Alignment

The Speed Dowel system ensures proper dowel alignment with a patented 2 piece system consisting of a round or square dowel sleeve and base, effectively managing stresses within concrete slab-on-ground joints. The base and sleeve are attached to the edge form before concrete placement and the concrete is placed and consolidated around the Speed Dowel using standard practices. This system ensures positive load transfer, enhancing the structural integrity of the joints. The dowel is now aligned and ready to accept dowel rods or bars for transferring loads across the joint. This method not only ensures proper dowel alignment but also saves time and labor.

Applications

The Speed Dowel system is used for:

• Warehouse/Distribution Centers

• Big Box Stores

• Manufacturing Facilities

• Commercial/Industrial Complexes

• Entertainment Centers

• Recreational Complexes

• Parking Facilities

• Airports

• Vertical wall joints

• Vertical wall construction joints

• Slab on grade

Whether it’s a large industrial project or a small commercial build, the Speed Dowel system is the solution for proper dowel alignment and load transfer. The advanced slip dowel and slip dowel installation ensure efficiency and cost-effectiveness by eliminating the need for pre-drilling and enhancing load transfer across construction joints. It’s a must-have in today’s concrete construction.
