QuicKey™ [Patent No. 6502359] and PRO-KEY™ [Patent No. 5380122] are stay in place metal keyed control joint formers for use in concrete flatwork as a control or construction joint. The tongue and groove design provides excellent load transfer characteristics for heavy, wheeled traffic and also prevents uneven settling associated with aggregate interlock. The use of a metal keyed control joint eliminates costly form stripping and saw cutting and slow checker-board placement of concrete.
