Aluminum Forms from Precise Forms
Rapid form setting and stripping with practically unlimited versatility.
Smooth Aluminum Form with 6-12 Hole Pattern
BRACING
The 4” channel brace was designed for the 6-12” hole pattern. The sides of the 4” channel are serrated for easier handling. To add strength, an internal stiff back is added to the center of the brace. The bottom of the legs are enlarged and combined with the .125 aluminum sheet, ensures a solid base for deeper welds.
ENDRAIL
The hole pattern that is used on the siderail is duplicated in the endrail to allow stacking as well as laying the forms down. The endrail is notched to receive the face sheet since the ends of the forms are usually the most abused part of the form. By notching the endrails you protect the face sheet from abuse and prevents it from curling.
CORNER GUSSETS
Precise Forms incorporates the thickest corner gusset on the market. Our corner gusset is a full 1/4” plate. Corner gussets provide extra support and strength for the corners. In addition they prevent concrete build up and make cleaning the forms easier.
SIDERAIL
Designed to withstand loads placed on it during the pouring procedure. Flat on the inside so a good butt weld can be achieved. Convex on the outside to release concrete easily. Double contact points eliminate offsets produced by single contact siderails.
WELDING
A specific weld pattern is used to dissipate as much heat as possible. This pattern welding method minimizes the amount of distortion. Argon gas is used for a shield to purify the welding procedure to ensure clean welds.
BUSHING
The steel ring bushing is preferred by most of our customers. The hardness of the bushing is the key, as the pins and wedges are heat treated to the same hardness. This way the contractor will not have one item cutting into the other thus extending the life of the entire system.
Aluminum Form Systems
Modular Aluminum Forms
Precise Forms provides a complete line of standard and decorative aluminum formwork. Custom concrete aluminum forms are available for almost any situation with the submittal of drawings.
Dominator and Eliminator
With this form being 25% thicker than a standard flat tie form the form deflection and pillow casing is reduced, providing a smoother, flatter finished wall surface.
Deck System
Pitched roofs and flat decks are easily created when Precise Forming Systems are used in conjunction with the Precise Ledger System.

Aluminum Form Benefits
These are a few of the many benefits aluminum concrete forms have to offer:
- Greater strength and durability through specially designed side rails.
- Significant Quality – For example over 600 inches of high quality robotic welding on a 36″ x 96″ concrete form.
- Increased versatility with a full line of fillers, attachments, corners, specialty concrete forming, wall ties and concrete forming accessories.
- Aluminum 1/4″ thick corner gussets are used to strengthen the corners of the concrete forms as well as to minimize concrete build-up.
- Easy accommodation for tall walls, since our concrete forms are easily stackable.
- Our concrete forms are cost efficient. With reasonable care, cleaning, and maintenance, 2,500 pours or more are not unusual.
- The end rail on the smooth aluminum concrete form allows the face sheet to be inset. Inset end rails add strength to the form and additional face sheet support without unsightly lines to the vertical form joints.
- Precise uses a serrated 4″ channel bracing on all of our 6-12 hole pattern aluminum forms. This provides a better gripping and climbing surface on the wider cross members.
- Perfect for residential, commercial, precast concrete, and many other concrete applications.
- Heat treated ring bushings prevent elongation and are fully zinc coated to minimize rusting.
