TPU Recess Former are used for fastening of the anchors from the Transport Anchor System,2Hole Anchor, Erection Anchor, Sandwich Panel Anchor and so on to the form work.
Product Features
The key benefits and features for TPU Recess Former are as per below:
• Hard oil resistant, yet flexible, rubber
• For attachment to steel and timber forms or floats
• Durable plastic case allows easy and clean removal
Functionality:
TPU Recess Former are used to accurately create the correct recess to accommodate the Locking claws during casting, the TPU Recess Former is moulded from a plastic compound exclusively developed to ensure longevity when in contact with concrete. Solid metal formers have a thread fitted in the back to fix to the mould. The outer curved surface of the plastic compound has a hole at its apex to allow the anchor to extend out of the TPU Recess Former. It is made of highly durable plastic encasing a high tensile steel bolt, complying with many international standards.
To fix the spherical head lifting anchors or erection/spread anchors to the formwork, a TPU Recess Former must be used. This ensures simple and secure locating of the anchor and leaves the anchors ready for the correct universal head lifting link.
The TPU Recess Formers are used for easy attachment to the formwork. The TPU Recess Former in the open position will be put over the anchor head. Closing the TPU Recess Former will fix the anchor tightly. Afterward, the TPU Recess Former can be fixed to the formwork together with the anchor.
Applications:
TPU Recess Former is used to accurately and reliably set the anchor into its recess in the concrete panel. The TPU Recess Former can receive all our anchors in load groups of 2.5 t,5.0t, 7.5T and 10.0 t.
The recess former serves as a mold or a formwork that is placed within the concrete or other material before it sets. It defines and creates voids or recesses in the final structure.These recesses can be used for embedding electrical conduits, plumbing pipes, or any other utilities that need to be concealed within the building’s structure.
Common applications include residential and commercial buildings, where they are used in walls, floors, and ceilings to create spaces for electrical wiring, HVAC ducts, and plumbing installations.
It is applied to buildings and matched with appropriate lifting clutch and TPU Recess Former according to the model.
Advantages:
Material: TPU is the abbreviation of Thermoplastic Polyurethane （thermoplastic）, which is an elastomer material with the characteristics of wear resistance, shear resistance, oil resistance, chemical resistance, and good elasticity. Compared with traditional plastic and plastic materials, TPU has better elasticity and durability, so it is widely used in various fields. TPU material has high wear resistance and cutting resistance, but also has a good elasticity, not easy to deformation, high and low temperature resistance. In addition, TPU materials also have the advantages of good chemical stability and easy processing. Due to these characteristics, TPU materials are widely used in insoles, sports shoes, imitation leather, automotive interior, medical devices, packaging materials, electronic products and other fields.
Ease of Installation: They are lightweight and easy to handle, making installation quicker and more efficient.
Consistency: Using prefabricated formers ensures uniformity in the size and shape of recesses throughout the construction project.
Cost-Effective: Compared to traditional methods of creating recesses on-site, TPU Recess Formers can reduce labor costs and minimize material wastage.
