A fully threaded, high-strength steel rod, primarily used in the contracting and construction sector for tying and tensioning concrete formwork (wooden or metal formwork for walls, columns, and tanks) to ensure they do not open or move during the pressure of concrete pouring. Common Specifications for Tie Rod: Most Used Diameter: 16 mm (standard size for concrete formwork). Available Lengths: Full rods of 6 meters length. Cut rods ready for direct use in lengths such as 1 meter or 1.20 meters. Material: Made of high-quality hardened steel to withstand high tensile strength. Essential Accessories Used With It: Tie Rod Nut: A wide nut designed for quick and strong fastening. Tie Rod Plate: A square steel plate placed behind the nut to distribute pressure onto the wood. PVC Sleeve: The rod passes through it to protect it from sticking to the concrete, allowing it to be pulled out and reused in other projects after the concrete has set. Waterstopper: A piece added to the tie rod in water structures and tanks to prevent water leakage through the rod holes.
