Spring clamps (chiroza) for formwork
Spring clamps (chiroses) for formwork
Modern monolithic construction is constantly being improved, and one of the most effective solutions in recent years has been spring formwork clamps , which are well known in the construction market as chiros . Their use significantly simplifies the process of erecting formwork structures and saves time, materials and the budget of the construction site.
Unlike traditional kits consisting of a tightening screw, nuts, cones and PVC pipes, the clamps work on the principle of mechanical clamping on the fittings. This significantly speeds up installation and reduces the cost of consumables.
Where are spring clamps (chiroses) used?
Chiroz is optimally suited for the installation of formwork during construction:
-
foundation strips and slabs
-
monolithic walls
-
columns and vertical elements
-
concrete stairs
-
reinforcement belts and jumpers
The ease of installation makes this clamp a versatile tool for both small private projects and large-scale construction.
Advantages of chiros compared to traditional screeds
1. No PVC pipes and cones
Installation using the "tie + nuts + pipe" kit leaves through holes in the concrete that need to be filled and waterproofed.
Chiroz completely eliminates this problem, as the reinforcement remains in the body of the concrete , and holes are not formed.
2. Simple operation technology
To fix the clamp, it is enough:
-
put on a chintz for the release of the armature;
-
install a key for the clamp;
-
Lower the key lever by pulling the spring.
The process takes a matter of seconds and does not require any special skills.
3. Quick dismantling
To remove the chiroz, it is enough to lightly hit the clamp tongue with a hammer - the spring weakens, and the element can be easily removed by hand.
4. Cost-effectiveness
The cost of the screws is significantly lower than a set of tension screws, and it does not require additional materials or complex tools.
5. Availability of materials
All you need for the job is the reinforcement that is always available on the construction site. There is no need to look for non-standard tie bolts or special nuts.
Why are spring clamps the best choice?
-
minimizing costs for formwork materials
-
reduction of formwork installation times
-
increasing team productivity
-
simplicity and reliability of the design
-
reuse of clamps
The use of chiroz is a modern approach to organizing monolithic works, which has already proven its effectiveness on thousands of construction sites.
