Connolly 16mm x 230mm Universal Dowel Sleeve – Round – Bag of 25

Dowel sleeves enhance the longevity of concrete structures by ensuring precise alignment of dowel bars at joints, reducing stress and preventing uncontrolled cracking. By allowing lateral movement for concrete expansion and contraction, they minimise structural wear and tear. Their corrosion-resistant design protects dowels from moisture, ensuring the durability of the reinforcement over time.

Dowel sleeves reduce labour time and costs by eliminating the need for post-pour drilling and enabling quick and precise installation of dowel bars. Their reusability and durability also minimise material waste, making them an economical choice for both small-scale and large infrastructure projects.

Yes, dowel sleeves are versatile and can be used across a wide variety of concrete applications, including roads, bridges, commercial buildings, and industrial floors. They integrate seamlessly with formwork systems, ensuring proper dowel alignment and movement. By accommodating diverse project requirements, dowel sleeves contribute to efficient and durable concrete construction.

Installing dowel sleeves is straightforward and requires minimal tools. They are securely attached to the formwork before the concrete pour, ensuring precise placement of dowel bars once the concrete hardens. This method reduces labour time and eliminates the need for costly post-pour drilling.
