Aslan 600 GFRP Dowels

Aslan 600 Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Dowel Bars are designed smooth and round for installations in moving concrete construction joints. Aslan 600 Dowels will not rust or corrode, locking a concrete joint together or causing spalling of the surrounding concrete.

The Aslan 600 GFRP bars are available as round bars in the following diameter sizes: 16mm (5/8"), 19mm (3/4"), 25mm (1"), and 38mm (1-1/2"). An elliptical dowel bar is available in a diameter that would be equivalent to a 1.71" round rod. Many benefits in concrete joint performance are anticipated with greater bearing area under the dowel offered by the elliptical shape. Elliptical dowels are to be used with the wider plane in horizontal position. Typical lengths are 18", and the dowels can be supplied as loose dowels or mounted in basket assemblies. For further details please download the Aslan 600 product literature.
