Designed to rough-in, wake-up sections on highway paving jobs. This float forms 6" on center corrugated grooves I" in depth. May be filled with rock or sand for added weight.

C. Combination Magnesium Floats

Our half-smooth, half-corrugated cast magnesium floats are designed to penetrate freshly poured cement containing coarse rock to condition the slab surface for final finish.

Working the float over the slab with corrugated surface trailing, it forces coarse aggregate down below the surface and on the return stroke it restores the slab to a smooth surface. Each unit includes a threaded float bracket. 

Quick-connect handle assemblies are available in magnesium and fiberglass for all Haivala floats.
