Continuous Deck Rails are 750mm long plastic reinforcement spacers designed to provide continuous, stable support for reinforcing bar and mesh in concrete formwork applications.

Also known as deck rail spacers, deck rail chairs or continuous bar chairs, they are commonly used for suspended slabs, decks, precast panels, beams and reinforcement over concrete blinding.

Each rail features clip-together ends, allowing multiple sections to be joined to create longer continuous runs. Their continuous design provides a quick and practical alternative to positioning large numbers of individual bar chairs.
