Qingdao Simen Launches New Magnetic Rubber Recess Former to Simplify Precast Concrete Formwork Operations
Views: 6 Update date: Apr 27,2026
Qingdao Simen, a trusted supplier of precast concrete accessories, is proud to introduce its new rubber recess former with integrated magnetic technology, designed to address common challenges faced by precast concrete manufacturers worldwide. The new product has been developed based on direct feedback from industry partners, focusing on solving persistent pain points in formwork installation, alignment, and reusability.
Unlike traditional recess formers that rely on clamps, tape, or mechanical fasteners to stay in place during concrete pouring, this new model uses built-in magnets to create a secure, slip-resistant bond to steel formwork surfaces. This eliminates the risk of shifting or floating during the pour, ensuring consistent, accurate recess dimensions every time. The magnetic base allows for quick, one-step installation, cutting down on setup time and reducing the need for additional hardware. Workers can simply position the former on the formwork surface, and the magnet holds it firmly in place, ready for concrete placement.
Constructed with a durable rubber body and high-strength magnetic insert, the recess former is built for repeated use in demanding precast environments. The rubber material is resistant to concrete buildup, making it easy to clean and reuse across multiple production cycles. The integrated magnet is fully encased to protect it from concrete, water, and debris, ensuring long-term performance even with frequent handling. The product is compatible with a wide range of precast applications, including wall panels, beams, and slabs, making it a versatile addition to any precast production line.
One of the biggest advantages of the new magnetic recess former is its impact on production efficiency. By removing the need for time-consuming alignment and fastening steps, teams can complete formwork preparation faster, reduce labor costs, and minimize the risk of human error. The secure magnetic hold also eliminates the risk of formers moving during vibration or pouring, reducing costly rework and ensuring the final product meets exact specifications.
At Qingdao Simen, our focus has always been on creating practical, quality-driven solutions that solve real-world problems for the global precast concrete industry. This new magnetic rubber recess former is a direct reflection of that commitment: built with user needs in mind, engineered for durability, and designed to make formwork operations simpler, faster, and more reliable. We’re excited to bring this solution to our partners around the world and continue supporting their success with innovative, field-tested products.
