Tube and Clamp Scaffolding – Versatile Steel Access System for Complex Construction & Industrial Sites
【Product Overview】
The Tube and Clamp Scaffolding System(pipe-and-coupler scaffold) is a traditional steel access system built from48.3mm steel tubes and drop-forged couplers(right-angle, swivel, and sleeve types). Unlike modular systems with fixed geometry, tube and clamp can beerected into unlimited shapes and angles– curved facades, irregular structures, and tight industrial spaces.
Constructed from Q235/Q355 steel with hot-dip galvanized or painted finish, this system providesmaximum flexibility, high load capacity (80–100 kN per standard), and long service lifefor demanding applications.
【Why Choose Tube and Clamp Scaffolding?】
Maximum Versatility – Built to any height, width, or shape; no geometric limits.
High Load Capacity (80–100 kN)– Supports heavy personnel and equipment loads.
Drop-Forged Couplers (EN 74)– Secure connections with high slip resistance.
Corrosion Resistant – Hot-dip galvanized or painted for outdoor durability.
Globally Compatible – Works with standard 48.3mm tubes available worldwide.
【Key Applications】
Curved building facades and domes
Petrochemical plant and refinery maintenance
Shipbuilding and dry-dock access
Bridge inspection and under-deck platforms
High-rise jump form / climbing form integration
Temporary shoring and structural support
