Rebar Stakes

Rebar Stakes are ribbed-profile stakes driven into the ground for temporary form retention and site layout. The deformed surface increases ground engagement and resists pull-out.

Definition

A ribbed-profile form stake

A deformed-surface stake for temporary forms, site layout and concrete preparation.

Application

Driven beside boards

The ribbed surface increases ground friction and locks the stake in position beside a board or at a layout mark.

Product form

Diameter, lengths and grades

5/8 to 1 inch diameter; 16 to 56 inches length; C1008–C1040 material; multiple finish options including painted and galvanized.

How it works

Driven and locked by ground resistance

Drive the stake beside the form board or at the layout mark. Ground friction engages the deformed ribs and holds it rigidly in place.

Round Stakes
Choose it for general board retention, with a round section that drives cleanly beside timber or plywood boards.
Flat Stakes / “C” Mouth Stakes
Choose it when you want a flat face bearing against the board and a section that resists turning in the ground.
Square Stakes
Choose it when you want a square section with flat sides to set against the board.

Choose it when you want the ribbed surface of reinforcing bar gripping the ground.

Common applications

Where it is used.

Application

Slab edge retention

Ribbed surface anchors temporary form boards at slab and flatwork edges.

Application

Foundation and footing layout

Marks and retains temporary form positions during footing preparation.

Application

High-engagement ground conditions

The deformed profile performs better than smooth stakes in loose or soft ground.

What are rebar stakes?

Rebar stakes are driven steel stakes with the ribbed profile of reinforcing bar, made in C1008–C1040 steel. They are set beside form boards to hold temporary concrete forms in line, and they come plain, painted, galvanized or powder coated.

What specifications do rebar stakes have?

Rebar stakes are supplied in diameters from 5/8 to 1 inch (16–25 mm) and lengths from 16 to 56 inches (300–1400 mm). Finishes available include plain, painted, galvanized, and powder coated for various site conditions.

Concrete systems

Ribbed-profile form and layout stakes

Deformed ribs engage the ground more aggressively than smooth round or flat profiles. Round, Flat / C-mouth and Square Stakes provide smooth alternatives; Formwork Pins handle pin-driven work.
