Products: Tielock FRP Zbar and Zbar fittings

A typical usage of Z bar is to act as a restraint in wall forms to stop them blowing out. Tielock is a Zbar made from FRP – Fibre Reinforced Polymer – that has equivalent physical and mechanical properties to metal Zbar but does not have any corrosion characteristics.

Tielock FRP is used predominantly in applications where waterproofing or corrosion is an issue or where access to go back and patch conduit is an issue because such as at height.

TIELOCK FRP (Fibre Reinforced Polymer) Zbar was specially developed for formwork applications. Its high corrosion resistance, high strength, cuttability and other features offer lots of benefits for all formwork applications.

TIELOCK FRP rebars have the same thread as Z bars and can be applied with all related standard accessories. After use, FRP formwork ties can remain in concrete as one-way rebars. Special parts like cones, conduit and water stops are not necessary. Being a Fibre Reinforced Polymer It has inherent corrosion resistance and avoids rusty bleeding on concrete surfaces.
