Halfen DEHA Cast In Channels |
| HTA cast-in channels are available in a wide range of sizes with load capacities up to 32 kN pull out or shear, whilst a new generation of HZA hot rolled toothed channels give unrivalled longitudinal capacity. A full range of matching T-bolts and locking plates is also available. |
| Halfen channels are a range of rolled steel profiles designed to provide secure fixings into concrete. The channels are rectangular in section and bonded to the concrete by anchors. Each channel is complemented by matching T-head bolts. |
Use of Halfen Cast In Channels |
| The channels are fixed to the formwork prior to the casting of the concrete. When the formwork is struck, each channel provides a slot, into which Halfen T-head bolts can be fixed in any position along the length. |
Applications of Halfen Cast In Channels |
| Halfen channels are suitable for all types of construction fixing applications, such as the flexible positioning of mechanical services, lift guides or structural fixings for major components such as pre-cast panels and curtain walling. |
Advantages of Halfen Cast In Channels |
| easy to use – simple nailing to formwork makes errors unlikely |
| safe near edges of concrete and close together |
| suitable for bolt pairs on a single channel |
| adjustable to take up building tolerances |
| shank of bolt clearly visible through nut |
| free of noise and vibration of power tools |
| free of expansion forces when torquing, therefore no damage to concrete edge |
| correct engagement of T-head bolt indicated by cross mark on end of shank |
