* watertight tie points without additional sealing
* face concrete without refinishing
* no danger of corrosion

In surface quality evaluation, tie points in expose concrete remaina controversal issue up to now. After stripping the formwork, thestressed areas must be troweled and fitted to the surface, or expensiverefined-steel plugs must be used in order to enhance the character ofexposed concrete. Both processes are very costly.
If shuttering is bonded with tensioning wires, rust spots can hardly be avoided.

SuperTie^TMis a solution for tie points in complicated surfaces of the exposedconcrete and in concrete structures with special requirements onwater-tightness. Now spots or asperities occurring during eliminationof anchor points, as well as "rust noses" is a thing of the past.

SuperTie^TMis a tension system based on glass-fibre bars combined with re-usablechucking cones and chucking wedges. The concrete-grey SuperTie^TMbars remain in the concrete as used material. After form stripping,they are cut off so that they are flush with concrete surface. Thatresults in a clean surface where the tie point is almost unvisible.
