Flanged Dowel & Square Dowel Kits

Flanged Dowel Box Kits are multi-directional metal sleeves supplied with high capacity square dowels. They are can be attached to metal or wooden formwork with ease with their integral nailing flanges and location marks.

They allow for both contraction and expansion at the joint, as well as having a large lateral movement capacity. Flanged Dowel Boxes are ideal for construction joints in slab-on-ground applications and are available in a number of different standard sizes.
