Original Ming Wing

The Original Ming Wing (OMW) is an AC468 certified, economical precast concrete connector that provides the industry standard shear capacity. The time-tested OMW began as a limited offering to a few precast partners, being used for the last 30 years in highly corrosive environments including over 700 precast parking structures. All Original Ming Wings are Made in the USA with US steel.

Features and Benefits:

CC-ES qualified for use as a high deformability element connector in a precast concrete diaphragm for high seismic zones.
Resists tie wire slippage and allows for better concrete adhesion, improving structural integrity.
The straight leg of the Original Ming Wing minimizes material and is shown to produce less local damage than legs that are twisted.
