A device for connecting and maintaining a first panel and a second panel of a concrete formwork in a fixed, spaced relationship during a wall building process includes a first connector embeddable within the first panel and having a non mold-abrading surface. A bridge links the first connector with the second panel, and at least a portion of the bridge is made of a fire-resistant material. Due to the properties of the device, it does not unduly scratch molding equipment during formation of an insulated panel in which it is to be embedded, and resists passage of smoke or flames through the formed concrete wall in the event of a fire.
