TieLock™ Forming System Data Sheet
TieLock™ Forming System
A self-centering tie and locking bracket, with 3/4”
plywood and 2×4 lumber, for concrete forming
The TieLock self-centering tie and bracket, with 3/4”
plywood as 3/4” plywood as the form face and 2×4
lumber as the waler, creates an economical concrete
forming system.
The self-centering tie sets the wall dimension, fits
snugly against the plywood face, and breaks back
cleanly inside the plastic cone.
The typical tie spacing is 16”x24” for most concrete
walls. The TieLock Bracket hooks the tie loop, while
securely holding the 2×4 lumber walers.
A Strongback Bracket hooks onto the TieLock
Bracket when 2×4 lumber strongbacks are needed.
The safe working load of 2,250 lbs (2:1 safety factor)
is based on the tie capacity. It may be necessary to
adjust the tie pattern and/or concrete rate-of-pour to
stay within this limit.
The self-centering tie sets the wall thickness, fits
snugly to the form face, and breaks cleanly during
stripping. Optional water-resistant washer available at
an additional cost.
The TieLock Bracket, sometimes called a Camlock
bracket, has a pivoting handle that captures the tie
loop and 2×4 lumber waler at the same time.
A Strongback Bracket hooks onto the TieLock
Bracket when 2×4 lumber strongbacks are needed.
