{"id":988,"count":1,"description":"Joluka Diagonal Dowels offer a modern solution for transferring loads across concrete construction joints. These dowels outperform traditional round dowels, which often cause cracking when misaligned. Joluka\u2019s angled design eliminates that risk completely.\r\n\r\nThe diagonal shape allows slabs to move freely in all horizontal directions. This movement reduces stress and prevents cracking caused by shrinkage, temperature changes, or ground shifts. The dowel holds maximum bearing area near the joint, where shear and flexural forces are highest. This ensures strong, stable connections between slabs.\r\n\r\nContractors trust Joluka Diagonal Dowels for reliable performance. Since 1997, engineers have used this system in over a billion square feet of concrete slabs worldwide. It delivers durable, maintenance-free flatwork in industrial floors, warehouses, and commercial buildings.\r\n\r\nInstallation is simple and efficient. The base plate attaches to the formwork using screws, rivets, or wire. A sleeve clips over the base and embeds into the first slab. After stripping the form, the steel plate slides into the sleeve. The second slab is then cast, completing the joint. This method ensures clean edges and easy form removal. The base plate can be reused, saving time and materials.\r\n\r\nJoluka Diagonal Dowels come in a standard size of\u00a0<strong>114mm x 114mm x 6mm<\/strong>\u00a0and weigh\u00a0<strong>1.1 kg<\/strong>. They fall under\u00a0<strong>Steel Reinforcing Connections &amp; Channels<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Formwork Accessories<\/strong>.\r\n\r\nUse Joluka Diagonal Dowels to improve slab performance, reduce cracking, and simplify joint construction. They\u2019re a smart choice for any concrete project that demands strength, flexibility, and long-term durability.","link":"https:\/\/www.joluka.co.za\/construction\/product-category\/construction-joint-solution\/diagonal-dowels\/","name":"Diagonal Dowels","slug":"diagonal-dowels","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":987,"meta":[],"menu_order":0,"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.9 -
