Open plastic wheel spacer for piling
The OPS75 open pile cage spacer (circular or wheel spacer) is designed to provide a 75 mm (3”) cover and spacing for pile cages in reinforced foundations such as in situ piling and diaphragm walls. It acts as a guide wheel when lowering the reinforcement cage into the ground, ensuring smooth sliding and compliance with concrete cover requirements. The OPS75 is attached to the external steelwork (rebar diameter from 10 to 20 mm, or rebar sizes #3 to #6) of pile cages to ensure correct spacing from shuttering. The product is fully compliant with CRSI Manual of Standard Practice (USA).

Legoplast Plastic Manufacturing uses mechanically recycled Polypropylene (PP) in its product manufacturing. This material significantly reduces the carbon footprint compared to virgin polypropylene. Studies indicate that this process can cut greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80%, primarily by eliminating the energy-intensive production associated with virgin plastic.
The adoption of recycled polypropylene promotes sustainable manufacturing practices within the construction industry. Unlike traditional materials such as concrete, which have a high carbon footprint due to cement production, Legoplast's heavy-duty 4-in-1 plastic spacers offer an environmentally friendly alternative. Construction companies in the UAE and GCC contributes to reducing their projects' environmental impact by using Legoplast spacers instead of the commonly used concrete cover blocks.
Legoplast Plastic Manufacturing's facilities are situated in the Jabal Ali Industrial First area of Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
At Legoplast Plastic Manufacturing, we utilize the injection molding process to create plastic rebar spacers from recycled raw materials. This efficient process involves melting plastic pellets and injecting them into molds, resulting in high-quality parts. Notably, our zero-waste approach ensures that scrapped items and raw material offcuts are shredded and reused as recycled materials.
