Overview
Product Description
CONAC Ausfix HD are manufactured with galvanised wires for tying the reinforcement to the spacers. The Ausfix HD are also known as aspros.
The primary advantage of the CONAC concrete spacer is that they have a high load capacity and are corrosion resistant. These concrete spacers provide support for both reinforcing mesh and reinforcement bars, always ensuring that the correct cover is achieved.
Ausfix HD spacers are available in sizes from 25 mm to 100 mm cover. Their high load capacity means they are ideal for the construction of roads, bridges and external balconies. Furthermore, if your project requires concrete spacers to have longer tie wires, CONAC provides you this option.
Why are Concrete Spacers popular?
Concrete spacers and bar supports are made of the same material as the poured concrete, so thermal expansion and contraction are equal. And because they are the same material, the concrete and spacers will bond. No gaps!
Concrete spacers and bar supports help maintain the material integrity and uniformity of the concrete and provide a cover over the reinforcement that protects against corrosion.
Compliance Standards
CONAC Ausfix Bone Concrete Spacers comply with the AS:NZS 2425:2015 Standard with a 300kg rating.
The spacers fulfill the requirements of all exposure classes. Our concrete mix is tested by a NATA laboratory on a regular basis to check for:
- Strength
- Sorptivity
- Chloride Permeability (RCPT)
- Volume of Permeable Voids (VPV)
As such, CONAC Ausfix Bone Concrete Spacers comply with all required state government road and bridge requirements across Australia. Certificates of compliance of the concrete mix and product are available on request.
