Cup lock system scaffolding

It provides major savings in erection and dismantling times thus minimizing on-site costs. When not in use, its modular construction ensures minimal space requirements for storage.

A unique node point connection allows up to four horizontal members to be connected to a vertical member in one single action without the use of nuts and bolts or wedges. The locking device is formed by two cups, a fixed bottom cup which is welded to the vertical component at pre-located intervals and a sliding upper cup. The forged blade ends of the horizontal components are located into the lower cup, the upper cup is moved down and rotated to secure the components in place and a hammer blow then results in a positive and rigid connection.

It is extremely versatile. It can be erected for straight, curved and circular configuration for both access and support, and also for independent and mobile towers.

Both vertical and horizontal members are manufactured from 48.3mm overall diameter x 3.2mm gauge high tensile steel to International Standard SM490.

With no loose parts and with corrosion protection by hot dip galvanizing to British Standard 729, minimum thickness of the zinc coating is 85 microns.

Conforms to BS1139 Part 5, HD1000, OSHA, Australian and New Zealand Standards.

Features:

- Quick fastening of horizontals. Four horizontals can be fastened at one time with firm clamping action of top cup making the joint rigid.

- Quick erection and dismantling results in time and labour saving

- Versatile use in construction, demolition or maintenance projects for any type of structure i.e. straight or curved.

- Easy erection with no loose components

- Lightweight but high loads carrying capacity up to 57KN per vertical

- It can be erected and systemized bracing.

- Safety with proven track record
