Plate Dowel Basket
Our plate dowel systems are used in "Strategic Reinforcement" design that helps you achieve superior load transfer while optimizing the amount of steel in concrete slabs-on-ground. Our plate dowel baskets are a smarter, more efficient way to deliver the durable, maintenance-free floors your customers expect. Plate dowel basket assemblies allow you to optimize the amount of steel in a project, limit your liability by using the latest ACI 302.IR-04 guidelines, and deliver a cost-effective slab-on-ground. Reduces man hours for installation. Allows subgrade leveling after installation to prevent rutting. Construction tolerance allow for misalignment without causing restraint in the panels. Eliminates obstacles for the laser screed. Can be installed during pouring. Fully wielded assemblies, offering stable dowel support during installation.
- Increased surface area to reduce bearing stresses on concrete.
- Save Labor.
- Increased joint stability to increase life of joints and joint filler.
- Engineered to provide optimal use of steel.
- Patented sleeve clip eliminates lateral restraint between concrete sections.
- Non-Tapered orientation ensures consistent bearing stresses at joint face and full depth of dowel.
- Fully welded assemblies offer stable dowel support during installation.
- Can be positioned within 6" of a joint intersection.

Dowel Baskets
Wire suspension basket for poured in place Dowel Baskets. Dowels are supplied in basket, and can be supplied epoxy coated, painted, or plain. Use as an installation system for concrete slab dowels. Manufactured for tilt-up, highway, and airport runway slabs. Provides a more accurate method of installing steel expansion and contraction joints. Dowels are more precisely centered in slab, making it easier for the contractor to adhere to stringent engineering specifications. Keeps the dowels from being installed at an angle, which will insure proper movement of the slab. Gives the contractor a huge labor savings, over conventional forming methods. Dramatically cuts slab construction time. Fabricated for 3/4", 1",1-1/4" and 1-1/2" diameter dowels as required. To order specify type (expansion or contraction), dowel diameter centers, paving thickness and basket length. Made to meet federal, state, city and airport specifications.

Speed Plates™
The new and economical choice for Flat Plate Dowel Systems.
Speed Plate™ ensures proper dowel alignment and saves labor. There is no form drilling required, no greasing of dowels, and no spinning, removing or replacing of dowels. It is a one-piece design with alignment marks and pre-drilled nails making installation quick and easy. Speed Plate™ is engineered to provide optimal use of steel and allows the installer to increase the center distance between dowels.

Speed Dowel®
Speed Dowel® all-plastic sleeves are designed for the purpose of assuring proper field positioning and alignment of steel dowels at concrete flatwork construction joints and expansion joints. Speed Dowel® places rigid polypropylene sleeves in perfect position perpendicular to the vertical joint edge and parallel to both the horizontal plane and to each other. The Speed Dowel® sleeve creates a cavity that will accept either smooth or deformed dowels and will prevent bonding to the initial concrete placement. The potential for cracking and spalling are reduced by allowing free shrinking and expansion of adjacent combating differential settlement.
