FAQ
What is the purpose of a dowel sleeve?
A dowel sleeve provides a secure and efficient way to align round dowels in concrete expansion joints. This ensures that the dowels can transfer loads effectively between concrete slabs, preventing differential settlement and maintaining the structural integrity of the pavement.
How long should dowels be in concrete?
Dowels in concrete are typically 18 inches long, though the length can vary depending on the specific application and load requirements. For our concrete dowel sleeves, a 3/4 in x 18 in smooth dowel is recommended for optimal performance.
