The original, the Classic, Armour AlphaJoint.

Well known as the 'industry standard' armoured joint, this remains a popular choice for many projects due to its strength and versatility.

Used For - Supplied for slab depths up to 140mm, and for 220mm to 240mm.

Advantages of Alpha Armour Joint

• Heavy duty joint arris protection.
• Shear studs securely anchor the joint into the slab along its length.
• Resistant to twisting caused by the impact of wheeled traffic.
• Efficient load transfer between adjacent concrete slabs with plate dowels.
• Allows controlled horizontal slab movement, preventing random cracking.
• Eliminate vertical movement between slabs during concrete contraction, for a level floor surface.
• Supplied as one unit for easy handling and installation – the two sides are connected with frangible rivets which separate naturally after installation.

Usage

• Suitable for a wide range of internal applications, but particularly heavy duty ones – such as industrial buildings and waste transfer stations.
• Ideal for free movement areas, but also suitable for most other areas.
• Suitable for larger joint openings, up to 30mm.
