What Is a Mivan Stub Pin?

A Mivan Stub Pin is a metal formwork fastener used to join compatible aluminium shuttering panels. During installation, the holes of two adjoining panels are aligned, the Stub Pin is inserted through the holes, and a suitable wedge is used to lock the connection.

This simple connection helps workers assemble and dismantle aluminium formwork efficiently during repetitive concrete casting work.

Mivan Stub Pin Manufacturer in India Our Product

At Surya Engineering, we manufacture and supply Mivan Stub Pins for construction and aluminium formwork applications.

Our published product information includes mild-steel Mivan Stub Pins, with a commonly listed configuration of 16 mm 50 mm, along with polished or galvanized finish options depending on the product variant. 

Why Choose Our Mivan Stub Pins?

Strong and Practical for Repeated Formwork Work

Mivan formwork is assembled and dismantled repeatedly during construction. The connection accessories therefore need to be suitable for regular site handling.

Quick Pin-and-Wedge Installation

The pin-and-wedge system provides a straightforward method for connecting compatible aluminium panels and can help workers maintain a faster formwork cycle.

Suitable for Bulk Construction Requirements

For high-rise and mass-housing projects, large quantities of small formwork accessories may be required. We supply Mivan Stub Pins for bulk and project requirements.

Multiple Product Options

Depending on the requirement, Stub Pins are available in different sizes and configurations. For example, suppliers in the Indian market list 50 mm, 132 mm, and 195 mm Mivan pin sizes, demonstrating why buyers should confirm the required dimensions before ordering.

Pan-India Supply

Surya Engineering supplies Mivan formwork accessories to construction customers across India.

How Our Mivan Stub Pin Works

The installation is straightforward:

1. Align the panels
Bring the connecting holes of the two aluminium formwork panels into alignment.

2. Insert the Stub Pin
Pass the Mivan Stub Pin through the aligned holes.

3. Install the Wedge
Insert the compatible wedge into the pin's locking section.

4. Secure the connection
The pin and wedge hold the adjoining panels together.

5. Check the formwork
Before concrete placement, verify that the panels are correctly aligned and securely connected.

This pin-and-wedge approach is one of the reasons aluminium formwork can be assembled and dismantled efficiently on repetitive construction projects. 

Where Are Mivan Stub Pins Used?

Our Mivan Stub Pins are suitable for compatible aluminium formwork applications such as:

• High-rise residential buildings
• Mass housing projects
• Apartment construction
• Commercial buildings
• Wall formwork
• Column formwork
• Slab formwork
• Beam formwork
• Infrastructure construction
• Repetitive concrete casting
• Aluminium shuttering systems

Aluminium formwork is particularly useful where the same formwork configuration is repeatedly used across floors or similar structures.

Key Product Specifications & Market Intelligence

Understanding these details will help you make an informed decision:

Standard Sizes

The most common standard Mivan Stub Pin is 16mm in diameter and 50mm in length. Other lengths such as 60mm, 70mm, 100mm, and a heavy-duty 127mm long pin are also available for thicker panel connections.

Material & Manufacturing

Premium products typically use Mild Steel (e.g., EN8, EN24) or High-Tensile Carbon Steel. Top manufacturers use cold forging or heat treatment processes to enhance strength and durability.

Surface Finish

To prevent rust and ensure longevity, products are commonly finished with Zinc Plating, Galvanization, or Electro Zinc Plating.
