Magnetic Recess Former for Foot Anchor

Magnetic Recess Former for Foot Anchor is a magnetic recess former for the production of precast concrete elements, which is used in conjunction with anchors of different tonnages to locate and fix anchors on metal moulds without drilling holes. It utilizes a strong magnetic force to attract the anchors, protecting the mould from damage and prolonging its service life. After the concrete hardens, the formers can be easily removed and the anchors remain in the member for lifting and handling. Product features include high magnetic attraction force, rubber coating protection, reusable, structurally stable, and available in different colour coatings. When using the product, it is necessary to ensure that the mould is clean and to pay attention to the fixing and demolding method of the magnetic formers. The specially designed "Pro Version" provides higher magnetic force. The product complies with EU safety standards and carries the CE mark and traceability number.

product details

Magnetic Recess Former for Foot Anchor is a magnetic recess former for use in the production of precast concrete elements, which is used in conjunction with anchors of varying tonnage (Loads from 1.3 to 10 tons) in order to locate and secure the anchors on the metal mold.

It is designed to hold the anchors firmly to the mold without drilling holes using strong magnetic attraction force, which prevents damage to the mold and extends its service life. After the concrete has been poured and hardened, the magnetic recess formers can be easily removed from the molds, while the anchors remain in the precast concrete pieces for subsequent lifting and handling.


Item No.	D(mm)	Force(kg)	Anchor
QCM-1.3t	60	50	1.3t
QCM-2.5t	74	100	2.5t
QCM-5.0t	94	120	5.0t
QCM-10t	118	190	10t

Features and benefits of the Magnetic Recess Former for Foot Anchor include:

- Made of Q235 Low Carbon Steel and neodymium magnets, it produces a strong magnetic attraction force to ensure that the anchors are stable and securely held during the casting process.

- Features an optimized magnetic circuit design that provides a strong magnetic attraction force from 50 kgf to 360 kgf.

- Rubberized coating protects the internal magnets from corrosion.

- Reusable, environmentally friendly and cost effective.

- Sturdy and stable construction ensures long term use.

- Rubber coating can be supplied in different colors for special marking.

Precautions when using the Magnetic Recess Former for Foot Anchor include:

- Ensure that the mold surface is clean and free of old concrete residue, which may affect the strength of the Magnetic Recess Former.

- When demolding, the magnetic groove former can be pulled away from the mold by screwing in a bolt.

- For specially designed magnetic recess formers, such as the "Pro Version", they are designed with a steel plate on the bottom magnet, which generates a higher magnetic force (50% to 300% higher than the standard version) at a modest cost increase.

In addition, the magnetic recess formers are designed and manufactured in accordance with the EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and VDI/BV-BS 6205 to meet the requirements for safe lifting and handling of concrete elements. All products are CE marked, traceable numbered, come with a 3.1 certificate and are available for private label delivery.
