Column formwork PAX
The fastest way of creating rectangular columns
The effort required to create rectangular columns of different types using conventional methods is considerable – in the context of a work site. Our objective in creating a completely new type of formwork for rectangular columns was to minimise the effort and outlay while maintaining flexibility in height and cross-section.
The newly launched PAX column formwork system has in fact exceeded our original intentions. A unique feature is the patented folding mechanism, which allows the formwork to be opened, repositioned and closed again in the shortest possible time.
The system can be used to make rectangular cross-sections of 20/20 cm to 60/60 cm or from 50/50 cm to 120/120 cm based on a 5 cm-grid. The maximum formwork height is virtually unlimited and, up to a filling height of 4.80 m, can be concreted regardless of speed.
The following designs are available:
PAX HD column 320/60* | PAX HD column 320/120 |
* Height/max. cross section
