FORM TUBES

Description

 

Concrete Form Tubes

 

Concrete forms are made from many layers of high-quality fiber, spirally wound and laminated with a special adhesive. The inside coatings vary according to various uses. Because our tube forms are lightweight, they can be erected and braced easily. Standard sizes can be erected manually.  Form tubes are one-piece units; therefore, there are no fabrication or assembly costs. They can be cut or sawed right on the job to fit beams and allow for utility outlets.

  • Columns – Sections of a form can be used in forming plaster, half-round, quarter-round and ob-round columns. In forming such columns, the form se
    ction is used in connection with a plywood or wooden form. Jigs or form clamps are utilized.
  • Stub piers – forms are also used as stub piers for elevated ramps, outdoor signs, pole and fence-pole bases, flagstones and round steps.
