Dowel Bar Sleeves

Product Specification

At Mitro Industries, we bring you high-quality dowel bar sleeves engineered to facilitate precise load transfer in concrete joints. Dowel bar sleeves are an essential addition to any road and pavement project, allowing for efficient debonding of dowel bars to prevent structural cracking and enhance joint durability. Whether for highways, industrial flooring, or airfields, our dowel bar sleeves are designed to deliver superior performance and convenience on-site.

Dowel bar sleeves are cylindrical components used as debonding covers for dowel bars in concrete structures, allowing for horizontal joint movement while transferring loads across concrete slabs. This flexibility is essential in preventing cracks and maintaining structural integrity, making dowel bar sleeves an ideal solution for demanding projects requiring long-lasting performance and low maintenance.

Key Features and Benefits

Quick, Clean, and Easy to Fit - Unlike debonding paints, our dowel bar sleeves are easily fitted and clean to handle, saving both time and labor on site.

Made from High-Grade, Flexible Virgin Plastic - Manufactured from durable, flexible materials to withstand heavy loads and varying environmental conditions.

Compressible Filler End - Allows movement during concrete expansion, further enhancing joint flexibility and preventing structural stress.

Efficient Air Release Design - The sleeve's design enables trapped air to escape, allowing for quick installation by hand or with specialized fitting tools for large projects.

Why Choose Mitro Industries?

With a commitment to quality, our dowel bar sleeves undergo rigorous quality control to ensure each sleeve meets the highest industry standards. Our goal is to provide construction teams with effective, reliable solutions to enhance the durability and performance of concrete structures.

Applications of Dowel Bar Sleeves

Contraction Joints and Expansion Joints - Essential in motorways, highways, and other high-stress structures to accommodate joint movement.

Airport Runways - Provide reliable load transfer and debonding in highly trafficked environments.

Industrial Flooring - Used to ensure durable, smooth expansion joints in heavy-use areas.

Bridges and Structures - Protect concrete joints in large infrastructure projects requiring flexible joint movements.

Advantages of Using Dowel Bar Sleeves

Enhanced Joint Functionality - Allows slabs to bear additional weight by improving joint flexibility.

Reduced Tension and Deflection - Dowel bar sleeves prevent excessive stress on concrete joints.

Longer Pavement Life - Increases initial durability and minimizes life cycle costs.

Ease of Installation - Simplifies the fitting process, saving contractors time and reducing labor costs.

Standard Size of Dowel Bar Sleeve is 32mm x 300mm

Fitting Process

The standard fitting method is by hand - simply insert the dowel bar into the sleeve, and the trapped air escapes along the bar, ensuring a smooth and rapid fit. For large-scale projects, we offer a special Bench Fitting Tool to streamline the installation process further.
