Edge Connector
Edge Connector
Reliable welding location for adjoining precast concrete walls and slabs
The Edge Connector is a rebar-winged embed
designed for tilt-up concrete applications. The “wing”
is tied into the panel reinforcing steel, with the “flat”
positioned at the panel edge for later welding.
The rectangular “flat” on the Edge Connector
provides for a thicker, more reliable, field welding
surface between adjoining panels. The rectangular
shape exhibits greater weld strength, with less
variability, compared to typical round slugs.
The Edge Connector exhibits excellent performance
in Horizontal Shear, Tension and Vertical Shear,
making it suitable for tilt-up concrete applications,
such as panel-to-panel connections, roof slabs and
industrial walls.
Edge Connectors are used to join adjacent precast or
tilt-up concrete elements.
