Cuplock-Scaffolding-System

Cuplock system scaffolding has been designed to meet the requirements of the construction and housing industries.
The success of cuplock scaffolding lies in its principal design features:
 - Speed of assembly
 - Versatility of applications
 - Simplicity of components and their connection
 - Elimination of loose wedges
 - No special tools required for assembly (hammer and spirit level only)
 - Low maintenance required to keep in top working condition 

Cuplock scaffolding spigotted standards are principally used in access scaffolding applications and also as a base structure for formwork support applications. They have cup joints at 500mm intervals. The captive mobile top cups are designed to endure rough site handling and welded bottom cups are made from high-quality steel. Integral spigots, 150mm long, are provided at the top of each standard for making vertical connections. The spigots and the base of each standard incorporate 16mm dia. holes to enable use of locking pins to join standards where necessary.

The Ledgers are manufactured from 48.3mm O.D. tube with forged steel blade ends which locate into bottom cups of the standards and are locked in place by the corresponding top cups. Ledgers are available in various lengths to provide the desired grid dimension for scaffolding or formwork. Production of the ledger since 1997 has been from thinner high grade steel tube. This contributes to a higher ledger for easier handling. Ledgers manufactured prior to 1997 are made from the thicker wall tube and weigh approx. 20% heavier than the weights stated below.
