• 1 inch tapper – tight fit to minimize airborne dust
• Light weight, safe, flexible and quiet
• Equipped with safe, strong cable linking hardware

Concrete chutes are either standard (above water use) or watertight.  They are used for gravity placement of concrete, sand, and gravel.  Their sections are slippery and easy to clean, and every section is supplies with 2 galvanized cable assemblies (10,000 lb fail rating), so there is no suspended load on the plastic tubes.  All the weight is supported by the metal-to-metal linking system.

Standard Concrete Chute – “Tremie”

• Extremely useful on large form work projects
• Height of a single section: 4ft. (1.2m).
• Working length of a single section: 3.3ft. (1m)
• Diameters offered: 10″ (tapering to 9″), 11″, 12″, and greater
• Linked sections create a flexible tremie that can be curved

Watertight Concrete Chutes – “Tremies”

• For underwater concrete placement: flooded shafts, bridgework, piers, bored holes
• Tremies fit snuggly & quickly together for a watertight fit
• A single section is 13ft. (4m) max
• Diameters offered: 4″, 6″, 8″, 10″, 12″, and greater
• Intended for straight suspension (no bends)
• Weight of a 13′ x 8″ section: 65 lb. Volume .17 yd³
• Integrated rigging components cannot be lost.
• The stainless steel shackle features a unique locking design to prevent loss of the pin while the shackle is open.

Concrete Chutes are also available in offset and sloped versions for placement that is not directly under the source of the cement.

Landscaping chutes are best for moving sand, earth, and large debris when working with beaches, natural disasters, or excavations.

Landscaping Chutes

• The system is modular: sections can be easily removed, added, or changed out.
• Sections link together quickly using wire rope assemblies.
• Sections are made by a CNC robot, so they are perfectly conical for longer life.
• Sections can be drilled with 4 positions for the wire rope assemblies. This design feature allows the user to turn a section four times, in 90° increments, in order to obtain a longer working life.

Snow chutes are useful in removing large amounts of snow from public and private buildings and structures.

Stadium Snow Chutes

• Custom designed aluminum support frame suspends a canvas chute.

• Suspended from a pair of davits with built-in roof-mounted winches
• Once installed, the masts and winches are protected by an 8ft (2.4m) tall plastic enclosure.

Sluice Fed Snow Chute for Smaller Parking Decks

• Installed on the deck
• Used to feed a smaller diameter chute
• Avoids the need for a heavier chute
• Can be removed between snow clearing operations

Plastic Snow Slides

• Much lighter, so a smaller capacity chute support frame can be used
• Less bulky to store and transport
• Superb ease-of-use and durability provide a quick, clean and safe solution
