Hi-Lite's Tie Rod Features and Benefits:

Hi-Lite's tie Rods are available in three sizes:

  • 1/2" which is rated at 6.8 kips SWL (2.2 to 1)
  • 3/4" which is rated at 18.0 kips SWL (2.2 to 1)
  • 1" which is rated at 37.8 kips SWL (2.2 to 1)

Hi-Lite's Tie Rods are split ties with the cone acting as a joiner. This enables one side of the tie rod with the plastic tube spacer and wide mouth cone to be attached to the face of the form before the rebar is placed. This makes a convenient holder for placement of the rebar instead of nailing to the plywood.

Hi-Lite's Tie Rod systems eliminates the need to push a tie rod through the rebart and then attempt to find the hole in the plywood on the other side of the form. With Hi-Lite's system the Tie Rod Bolt only needs to go through the strongback/wailer into an oversized hole in the plywood and into the cone.

Hi-Lite's Tie Rod Cone with its wide mouth allows larger holes to be drilled in the plywood on the second side of the form,. This makes it easier to line up the forms.

Hi-Lite's Tie Rod System is reusable, only the inexpensive section of plastic tube is consumed. The cones are easily removed after the concrete is set by loosening the nut of the adjustable tie rod and then using a hammer to push the cone through the other end of the wall. There are no consumed spacers, She-Bolts, snap ties, coil rods, etc.

Hi-Lite's Tie Rods are spacers, thus they eliminate the need to nail additional spacers to the wall form. As well, the plastic tube is recessed therefore no spacer will be exposed on the finished wall or column.
