19% MORE STEEL in the MORTAR with WAL-LOK HORIZONTAL MORTAR JOINT REINFORCING

MADE WITH Domestic Steel Only

Other reinforcing may be heavier but, Grade for Grade and dollar for dollar, WAL-LOK puts more steel IN THE MORTAR where it counts-19.2% more than competitive products. SUPERSTANDARD Grade has 8 ga. Siderods rather than the 9 ga. used by others and it's the Siderods that end up in the mortar. Ladder type construction means no wasted steel to get in the way of insulation, pipe or conduit in the walls No extra freight on steel that serves no useful purpose.

PLUS, these no extra cost features-WAL-LOK is Double Deformed for maximum bondage WAL-LOK's galvanized Crossrods project for additional bond. Crossrods serve as bolsters or bar chairs to hold WAL-LOK up for complete embedment in the mortar.
