All of these benefits are key ingredients in producing wall forms that are unparalleled within the industry. OCM Inc.’s expert craftsmen work with only the highest grade aluminum (6061 T6) raw material to produce structurally sound wall panels and fillers designed to take the rigors of today’s fast pace residential and commercial foundation companies.
OCM’s forms are manufactured using .125" thick fully hardened aluminum face sheets with heavy duty extruded aluminum inset side rails for added protection from separation along weld lines. This provides maximum penetration of the weld and also reduces damage to the face sheet.
OCM’s form bracing come with several different designs depending on the hole patterns. The 8/16- 8-24 comes standard with a fully enclosed serrated tube measuring 1’ x 2” and welded completely to the side rails to prevent concrete seepage. The 6- 12 bracing come in a fully enclosed rectangular tube measuring 1½’ x 3½”. This pattern will give every panel and filler the support needed for today’s jobsite.
Each side rail is fabricated to precise specifications, milled to the proper depth to support any wall tie manufactured. OCM Inc. manufactures a flat steel bushing for use on our side rails. Each bushing is attached using two solid steel rivets. Each bushing protects the form at the point of contact from damage through constant use of the pin and wedge attachments.
Finally, OCM Inc. attaches .125” thick corner gussets to all four corners of each panel and filler for added strength.
