(scaffold poles and fittings)
A: Scaffold poles are usually made from steel or aluminum for durability, while fittings like clamps and connectors are often galvanized steel to resist corrosion. These materials ensure structural integrity and longevity in harsh environments.
A: Brackets lock onto scaffold poles using bolts or pins, creating rigid connections. Properly installed brackets distribute weight evenly, preventing shifts or collapses. They must comply with safety standards like EN 74 for load-bearing capacity.
A: Common fixings include base plates, sleeve couplers, and swivel clamps. Base plates stabilize poles on uneven ground, while couplers join poles end-to-end. Clamps allow angled connections for complex structures.
A: Yes, high-quality steel or aluminum systems are designed for reuse. Regular inspections for dents, rust, or wear are critical. Damaged components must be replaced to maintain safety standards.
A: They should meet ISO 9001 for manufacturing quality and EN 12811 for European scaffolding standards. OSHA regulations also govern load ratings and assembly protocols in the U.S. Always verify certification tags on components.
A: Pinned fittings use bolts for fixed connections in high-stress areas, while friction-fit rely on pressure for quicker assembly. Pinned types suit heavy-load applications, whereas friction-fit works for temporary setups requiring flexibility.
A: Clean components after use to remove debris and moisture. Inspect for cracks or corrosion, lubricate moving parts like swivel clamps annually. Store in dry conditions to prevent material degradation.
