Concrete spacers for floors are small plastic or metal devices used in construction to maintain a precise spacing between the reinforcement bars and the formwork during the casting of concrete floors. They are designed to ensure that the reinforcement bars (rebars) are held in the correct position, allowing the concrete to flow around them evenly and without obstruction.
Concrete spacers for floors come in a range of shapes and sizes, including circular, rectangular, and triangular shapes. They are typically made of plastic or metal and may be coated or treated to improve their corrosion resistance or other properties.

Concrete spacers are placed at regular intervals along the length of the reinforcement bars to hold them in the correct position. Once the reinforcement bars are in place, the formwork is put into place and the concrete is poured. After the concrete has cured, the formwork is removed and the spacers remain embedded in the concrete.
The use of concrete spacers for floors is essential for ensuring the strength and durability of the finished concrete structure. By maintaining the correct spacing between the reinforcement bars and the formwork, the concrete is able to flow evenly around the bars, creating a strong and stable floor that is resistant to cracking and other forms of damage.
