Advantages

• For fast accurate simultaneous positioning of inner and outer mesh or spi l reinforcement cages in double cage pipe.
• Stirrup spacers hook onto the inner cage and snap lock firmly onto the outer cage to form a rigid integral unit of reinforcement while spacing against the form surface to achieve the specified concrete cover.
• Stirrup action between cages resists pipe shear and tensile stresses at critical locations increasing pipe strength.
• Stirrup spacers can be used in packerhead, vibration, and wet cast production of circular and elliptical pipe.
• Stock sizes are available for B-wall and C-wall thicknesses from 3'' to 10'' at ¼” increments. Larger sizes can be manufactured quickly upon request.
• For tightness across cages, stock sizes A=2" (36B) and larger are manufactured 1/8” less than the "A" size listed.
• Stirrup spacers are manufactured from #3 GA. (0.243" DIA.) Bright basic wire to A.S.T.M. A-82 specifications.
