ABSTRACT:
A tool for guiding a rod through a tie loop that is extending through a slot in a concrete form. The tool includes a rod guiding member defining an elongated channel extending longitudinally between front and back ends of the rod guiding member. The front end of the rod guiding member is preferably tapered to form a tab member for inserting through the tie loop. The tool also preferably includes a handle connected to the rod guiding member for grasping the tool. When the rod is driven longitudinally through the channel of the rod guiding member while the tab member is inserted through the tie loop, the rod guiding member pivots causing the tab member to pull the tie loop completely through the slot in the concrete form thereby allowing the rod to be guided through the tie loop.
