CENTRALISER    SYSTEM

Accurate positioning
begins inside the cone.

The Centraliser   System is designed to help centre and stabilise holding-down bolts within waxed cardboard cone bolt boxes used in concrete foundations for structural steel frames.

How it works?

STEP-BY-STEP PROCESS

Installation Process
Step 1: Fit the Centraliser®

The Centraliser® is securely fixed onto the holding-down bolt, ensuring it is held in the correct central position.

 
Step 2: Position Within the Cone

The bolt and Centraliser® assembly is placed within the waxed cardboard cone, maintaining consistent spacing and alignment.

 
Step 3: Concrete Pour

During the pour, the Centraliser® prevents bolt movement, keeping alignment accurate and within tolerance.

 
Step 4: Remove Cone

Once the concrete has cured, the cone is removed, leaving a clean void and perfectly aligned bolt ready for steel installation.

What is it?

A simple, reliable system designed to maintain precise bolt alignment throughout the concrete pour.

The Centraliser® system works by securing holding-down bolts in a fixed, central position within the bolt box during the concrete pour — preventing movement and ensuring accurate alignment for steel installation.

Built for site conditions. Proven in practice.

THE PROBLEM

Misaligned bolts create problems long after the concrete has been poured.

Traditional bolt-box assemblies can allow waxed cones to move, distort or become damaged during installation and concreting. When bolts move away from their intended position, valuable baseplate tolerances may be consumed before steel erection begins
