 I have no affiliation with these folks other than having been on their mailing 
list for years after using some of their products when doing home construction. 
 I thought it might be of interest for tower installation.

| Smart Solutions for Reinforcement Alignment |
| Deep foundations and earth retention work require accurate alignment of rebar 
and rebar cages for concrete reinforcement. That’s why Simpson Strong-Tie® 
provides a range of field-tested solutions that structural engineers specify 
for commercial, industrial, highway and bridge projects. Our Quick-Lock® 
Pier-Wheel, Quick-Lock Pier-Boot® and Quick-Lock® Unibar® Centralizer attach in 
seconds to rebar and rebar cages as they are lowered into a drilled shaft. Made 
of durable, non-corrosive plastic, these components ensure accurate spacing 
within the column for structural integrity and corrosion prevention after 
concrete and grout are poured. |

  |
|  
| Quick-Lock® Pier Wheel |
|   |
| Quick-Lock Pier Wheels are designed to properly position a reinforcing steel 
cage in a drilled shaft with a concrete cover requirement. The wheels simply 
snap over the horizontal hoops of the assembled rebar cage to maintain correct 
spacing between the rebar and the drilled shaft. In addition, they prevent 
rebar exposure to moisture after the concrete is poured. The wheels also work 
for other applications where a concrete cover must be maintained. |

  |
|  
| Quick-Lock Pier Boot® |
|   |
| Quick-Lock Pier Boots are designed to support a reinforcing steel cage or 
single bar within a drilled shaft with a concrete cover requirement. The boots 
are pushed onto the lower ends of vertical bars to prevent rebar exposure to 
moisture at the bottom of the drilled shaft. Like the Pier Wheels, the Pier 
Boots are typically placed on the assembled cage as it is being lowered into 
the shaft. Applications include deep foundations, drilled shafts, augercast 
piles and bridge columns. |

  |
|  
| Quick-Lock® Unibar® Centralizer |
|   |
| Quick-Lock Unibar centralizers are designed for threaded-rod, rebar and 
tendon alignment support. They keep the rod, bar or tendon centered in the bore 
hole or forming tube to allow for required concrete coverage — without 
interrupting the grout flow around the rebar. With two identical halves, these 
Unibar centralizers can be snapped into place anywhere along the reinforcement. 
Applications include soil stabilization jobs like embankments, tunnels, soil 
nails, micropiles and tiebacks. Centralizers also can be used on other projects 
where rebar orpipe require concrete coverage.
 
 Rigorously tested and proven for reliability, these products are manufactured 
in the USA to meet the highest quality standards. Like other solutions from 
Simpson Strong-Tie, these rebar alignment and centralizer products are widely 
available for jobsite delivery and backed by our expert service and technical 
support. |
