PNA Diamond Dowel System

Achieve superior load transfer with the original tapered plate dowel system. Since 1996, contractors and engineers have used the Diamond Dowel system in more than 1 billion square feet of placed concrete to deliver the durable, maintenance-free concrete flatwork customers expect.

The Diamond Dowel System, helps you:

  • Collect your retainage
  • Reduce your callbacks and save labor
  • Optimize the amount of steel in a project
  • Limit your liability by using the latest ACI 302.1R & ACI 360R-06 guidelines
  • Deliver cost-effective slabs-on-ground

Faster, Easier Installation

  • The Diamond Dowel installation template and the tapered plate guarantee the fastest and most perfectly aligned plate dowel installation
  • Eliminates drilling forms, greasing/spinning dowels and removing/reinstalling dowels
  • Allows for easy stripping of forms
  • Ensures positive load transfer and eliminates cracking from restraint with reliable dowel alignment
  • Reduces job-site trip hazards

More Cost Effective

  • Reduces labor costs by at least 50 percent when compared to round dowel installation
  • The Diamond Dowel System allows use of locally available wood forms, reducing shipping costs
  • Diamond Dowel plates can be spaced farther apart than conventional dowels. thus you achieve superior load transfer at the construction joint with less steel.
