As one of the market leaders for the supply of scaffolding products in the UK, we are committed to exceeding all safety standards. Therefore, all of our fittings are tested to all the relevant British and European standards at the manufacturing facility, which is then repeated at independent UKAS accredited and NASC approved UK testing bodies. This stringent policy ensures our products are of the highest quality possible.
Unlike some competitors, the EN 74 Right Angle (Double) Couplers we have available for hire are the superior Class B type.
We stock a full range of scaffold fittings, some of which are detailed below:
Load bearing fitting which connects two 48.3mm outside diameter scaffold tubes at right angles.
EN 74 Class A, has a slip resistance 6.10kN
EN 74 Class B, has a slip resistance 9.30kN
Pressed Steel (Class A) – 0.83kg
Drop Forged (Class B) – 1.02kg
This fitting has minimal slip resistance and is most often used to connect the transom tube to the ledger to allow scaffold boards to be laid unimpeded.
BS 1139-2.2; has a slip resistance of 0.63kN along the transom tube
BS 1139-2.2; has a slip resistance of 3.90kN along the ledger tube
Pressed Steel – 0.62kg
Drop Forged – 0.65kg
Load bearing fitting which connects two 48.3mm outside diameter scaffold tubes at any angles. These fittings are particularly used for façade, sectional or plan bracing.
EN 74 Class A, has a slip resistance 6.10kN
Pressed Steel (Class A) – 1.03kg
Drop Forged (Class A) – 1.15kg
This component is used to clamp 48.3mm outside diameter scaffold tubes to steel beams. They are always used in pairs, one on either side of a steel beam’s flange. There is no British or European Standard for Gravlocks, this component is tested and conforms to the Australian standard AS 1576.2:1991
Drop Forged – 1.56kg
This is a frictional type coupler which connects two 48.3mm outside diameter scaffold tubes end to end.
EN 74 Class B, has a slip resistance 5.50kN
Pressed Steel (Class B) – 1.07kg
Load bearing fitting which connects two 48.3mm outside diameter scaffold tubes at right angles.
This fitting can be used where a structural transom needs to support scaffold boards, as the band fixed round the top of the transom does not interfere.
Band – 1.40kg
Plate – 0.60kg
Designed to prevent any uplift from wind, this component has a double flange which sits flush on top of two adjacent boards. Sitting between the boards, it is fixed to the tubular transom below
Pressed Steel – 0.67kg
