The Smart Masonry "Clean-Out" System

Patented ABS plastic T-Bolt, re-usable Nut & re-usable Transparent Window

Grout flow can be visibly monitored through the transparent "Window" virtually eliminating the problem of un-filled or honeycomb cells.

No damage to face of block. (No nails!)

Advanced Placement
Allows for readiness to pour immediately after inspection.

Fixing voids after removal of plywood covers can cost thousands of dollars.

No more blow-outs. Cheaper Than Plywood & Nails
