Jahn A Bracket - Snap Tie Clamp - Hot Dipped Galvanized

Holds Snap Ties Securely During Concrete Pours

Sandbaggy Jahn A Brackets (also known as Snap Tie Clamps) securely hold snap ties while supporting a single horizontal wale or vertical stud on nearly any wall form — straight, curved, battered walls, beams, or columns. Designed for stability during concrete placement, they help keep forms aligned and secure under load.

The 5/8” eccentric take-up adjusts tightly against lumber to compensate for minor thickness variations, ensuring a snug fit. Made from heavy-duty steel and hot-dipped galvanized for maximum corrosion resistance, these brackets are built for repeat use on demanding jobsites — without rental yard markup.

Backed by our 1-Year Ironclad Warranty — built tough and protected against manufacturing defects under normal use.

Sandbaggy carries a variety of snap ties & accessories.
