Installation Instructions for Our Bollard Assembly Ceme-Tubes

Follow the directions below provided by the experts at Ceme-Tube LLC for seamless Bollard Assembly Ceme-Tube installation:


  • Slide Bollard Assembly Ceme-Tube® onto standard black Ceme-Tube® and fasten together with screws in collar area (screws not provided)
  • Note: a standard black Ceme-Tube® must be used below grade to provide strength and frost resistance
  • A minimum of four pieces of No. 5 (5/8″) or three pieces of No.6 (3/4”) rebar should be used inside the Bollard Assembly Ceme-Tube® for additional strength
  • NOTE: four pieces of No. 6 (3/4″) rebar in the Bollard Assembly Ceme-Tube® will equal the strength of a 5-inch Schedule 40 pipe filled with concrete. If more strength is needed, add more rebar
  • Re-bar should extend at least two feet below the level of grade. On a standard 4-foot above-grade bollard, a 20-foot piece of re-bar cut into three equal pieces will provide 3 feet of support below grade and 3 1/2′ above grade.
  • If using multiple Bollard Assembly Ceme-Tube® product forms in one area, the tops can be trimmed down after setting and before filling to match heights with each other
  • Fill bollard with concrete to within 12 inches of the top, slide rebar down into concrete, then finish filling with concrete to the top
  • Before concrete hardens, attach domed lid with provided stainless steel screws in dimpled areas of dome cap
  • Clean off any concrete residue from outside of Bollard Assembly Ceme-Tube®
  • Installation is complete
