Adjustable Kicker

Description

The adjustable Kicker is the only steel brace that attaches to wood or steel forms and can be used on dirt, wood, or concrete surfaces. It eliminates the inefficiency of wood bracing resulting in higher profits. The quick adjustability allows for a faster, straighter wall line with zero waste, increasing production between 30-60%. With three standard and custom sizes available, it can withstand up to a 2 ft of 60mm pour. When the job is complete, it detaches and folds down for the next application.

Price P.O.A. depends on number of units required plus freight content.

Benefits:

Greater Time Efficiencies
Increased Production
More Flexible Applications
Save Money
No Timber Waste
Reusable
Anchor to: Ply Wood, Timber Decking, Soil Concrete
Clean & Safe Work Environment

Adjustment Positions
The adjustable Kicker will adjust to various surface angels and establish required height elevations.

Straighter Edges
The precision of the Adjustable kicker allows for straighter edges with less work than wood bracing.

Anchors to all surfaces

Efficiency

To increase production in repetitive forming, simply leave the Adjustable Kicker attached to the forms and move and pour.

Angled and better forms

The Adjustable Kicker can adjust to specific degrees of angle

Bridge Decks

Bridge decks and beam edges can be quickly set by anchoring the Adjustable Kicker into the ply wood or concrete and aligning the form to its position. Long radius or straight forms can be established faster by simply moving the form to its location and locking into place. By using no lumber/timber bracing, the Adjustable Kicker allows for a safer, cleaner work environment.

Proper support placed at the bottom with one unit anchored on plywood or concrete.

Radius Edge Forms

Steel Forms

With an available bracket, the Adjustable Kicker quickly attaches to steel-plyand curb forms. The capability allows contractors to brace and align the forms properly to the specific heights and locations on any surface making a difficult job easy.

Available Bracket for Curb and gutter form.

Slabs on Grade

The Adjustable Kicker’s versatility allows contractors to increase performance in a wide variety of applications. From paving to residential developments, large projects demand high production. Angled or plumb walls on earth or concrete surfaces can be achieved with zero waste.

Monolithic Pours

Contractors can suspend their forms over open footing by using the middle and rear stake pockets to anchor the Adjustable Kicker to the ground. This process allows for quick set up for one of the most time consuming jobs.

Stadiums

When forming step risers, simply attach the Adjustable Kickers to the forms, connect long sections of forms together and move them from step to step with the Kickers still attached. By using this highly productive system, thousands of feet/metres can be set by hand in one work day eliminating the cost of crane and bulky gang-forms. The height and form alignment achieves precise edges.

Deck Fliers

With an available sliding base plate, contractors can now leave the kickers and forms attached to the plywood deck while moving from one floor to the next. After the deck is poured, the forms and Adjustable Kickers slide away from the concrete edge allowing the deck to be moved. Once the deck has been moved and repositioned, the kickers and forms simply slide forward to the new wall line.

What the concrete professionals say

“The Adjustable Kicker played a major role in the project exceeding its goals for the savings, schedule and quality. We’ve enjoyed significant savings in both labour and materials by using the Adjustable Kicker instead of another form system. The ability of the kicker to attach to either earth or concrete was critical to our success, and the Kicker’s durability and ability to withstand the forces we placed against it was exceptional. We were able to complete the project one month ahead of an already aggressive schedule”
Jason Schulte, Assistant Superintendent for Mortenson

‘I will never to form work above 12” (300mm) with out the adjustable Kicker behind my forms”.
Vito Braccia, President of Vito Braccia Concrete Building Construction, Inc.

‘The quality control that the Adjustable Kicker allows for with its precise forming and bracing is unbelievable. I will require all contractors to use them on my projects.”
Jim Hawson, Project Manager for Triangle Investment Co.

The Adjustable Kicker saved me around $70,000 because it saved me 2,200 man hours”.
