What Is a Formwork Wedge Clamp?

A formwork wedge clamp, also called a wedge clip, is a locking accessory used to connect compatible formwork and shuttering panels.

These clamps may be used in suitable applications such as:

• Wall formwork
• Column formwork
• Beam and slab formwork
• Foundation construction
• Infrastructure projects
• Industrial construction
