The Connolly Biscuit Dowel system is a superior plate and sleeve system for construction joints in concrete slabs. Ideal for rapid set-up, they come complete with a heavy-duty rectangular steel plate dowel, a plastic sleeve to suit and nails to fix the sleeve to the formwork.

The biscuit dowel provides fantastic load transfer across joints, minimising deflection between the two adjacent slabs. This is critical for environments like warehouse & factory floors, where forklifts and other heavy machinery drive regularly over slab joints. If these joints have not been properly constructed with a load transfer dowel like the Connolly system, they will very quickly begin to crack and break down at the edges of the slab.

Here at Safari Group we stock the full range of Connolly biscuit dowels in 6mm and 10mm thickness options, in both standard black steel and the premium galvanised steel finish. They are also available in stainless steel for highly corrosive applications.

• Able to withstand greater loads with less deflection when compared to similar products (under NATA testing)

• Designed to ensure greater coverage over the maximum stress area

• Easily attached to formboards and steel formwork

• Design ensures the dowel area is constant regardless of joint contraction
