1.Steel Formwork Shuttering Clamps consist of a hook head steel rod and a loose but captive clip.
2.The design of Steel Formwork Shuttering Clamps is very simple,no bolt or nut required,highly selflock.
3.Steel Formwork Shuttering Clamps is used to clamp formwork timber batten from two contrary sides.
4.Steel Formwork Shuttering Clamps can prevents breakage of formwork,thus keep concrete structure in good shape without discoloration.
5.Beside ease of assembly and removal,Steel Formwork Shuttering Clamps can save lots of constructoin cost.
A Shuttering Clamp (also called a formwork clamp or concrete form clamp) is a fastening device used in concrete construction to securely hold wooden or metal formwork panels (shuttering) in place during concrete pouring. It prevents the formwork from bulging, shifting, or separating under the pressure of wet concrete, ensuring a smooth, accurate, and defect-free concrete surface.
Shuttering clamps are widely used in slab, column, beam, wall, and foundation construction, replacing traditional methods like nailing or tying with wire for faster, reusable, and more reliable formwork assembly.

Shuttering clamps are essential in the following concrete construction scenarios:
Column Formwork - Holding vertical formwork panels together around reinforcing bars.
Beam Formwork - Securing side and bottom panels for beam casting.
Wall Formwork - Preventing bulging in large-area wall pours.
Slab Formwork - Supporting perimeter shuttering to contain concrete edges.
Foundation & Footing - Maintaining shape during below-ground pours.
Retaining Walls & Bridge Piers - Heavy-duty applications requiring high clamping force.
1. Quality: Strictly control the quality through three levels. First level, quality test on the producing line. Second level, quality test during warehousing. Third level, quality test before loading.
2. Timeliness: 24 hours online.Provide consulting and quotation services for customers all the time.
3. Veracity: Strictly follow the customer standard to ensure the tolerance range and meet customer's requirement.
4. Integrity: If The customer complains about the quality of the products, our company will actively cooperate with them to solve the problem. If it is the responsibility of our company, we will bear the corresponding responsibility and compensation.
5. Longevity: Establish good long-term relationship with customers.
OUR PRODUCING PROCESS:
Q1: What is the difference between a shuttering clamp and a formwork clamp?
A: They are the same product. "Shuttering" and "formwork" are interchangeable terms in construction. The clamp is the device that holds the formwork panels together.
Q2: What materials are shuttering clamps made from?
A: Most are made from mild steel (bent or welded) or malleable cast iron. Steel clamps are stronger but heavier; cast iron clamps are lighter and more corrosion-resistant. Both are typically galvanized or powder-coated for rust protection.
Q3: How do I choose the right size clamp?
A: Measure the total thickness of your formwork panels (e.g., two 18mm plywood panels = 36mm). The clamp size should be slightly larger than this thickness. Standard sizes range from 300mm to 1000mm. For example, a 500mm clamp fits panels up to ~50-60mm combined thickness.
Q4: Can shuttering clamps be used with aluminum formwork?
A: Yes, but ensure the clamp is specifically designed for aluminum panels. Aluminum-friendly clamps have softer gripping surfaces or padding to prevent denting the softer aluminum.
Q5: How many clamps do I need per column or wall?
A: General rule: Space clamps every 500mm to 750mm vertically and every 300mm to 500mm horizontally. A typical 3m high column may need 4-6 clamps. For walls, increase density near the bottom where concrete pressure is highest.
Q6: Are shuttering clamps reusable?
A: Yes. High-quality steel clamps can be reused 200-500 times or more if properly cleaned and stored. After each use, remove concrete residue and apply light oil to moving parts.
Q7: Do I need special tools to install them?
A: No. Most shuttering clamps have a wedge or cam-lock mechanism that tightens by hand or with light hammer taps. No wrenches or power tools are required.
Q8: What is the maximum concrete pressure they can withstand?
A: Standard steel shuttering clamps can withstand 15-25 kN/m² (approx. 1.5-2.5 tons per square meter). For high-pressure applications (e.g., deep foundations or tall walls), heavy-duty clamps rated for 40+ kN/m² are available.
Q9: Can I use shuttering clamps alone without bolts or ties?
A: For small formwork (e.g., a 600mm column), clamps alone are sufficient. For large walls or heavy pours, clamps should be used together with formwork ties and walers for full structural support.
Q10: How do I maintain shuttering clamps?
A: After each use:
Remove all wet/dry concrete with a hammer or scraper.
Wash with water and dry thoroughly.
Apply light machine oil to threads, wedges, and pivot points.
Store in a dry, off-ground location to prevent rust.
