- Inner-tube with welded top-plate
- Outer-tube with welded base-plate
- Nut & handle
- Chainless prop pin
- Available in 5 sizes covering a range from 1050mm to 4900mm with working load limits ranging from 8kN to 42.5kN.
- Spare parts are available for all components & sizes.
STRONG & DURABLE
- Manufactured from high yield Gal tube Plus® steel
- The prop outer-tube features a rolled thread which retains the tube wall thickness & thereby maintains maximum strength
- Gal tube Plus® steel offers long life protection against corrosion
SWIVEL REDUCTION COUPLER
- Used for coupling ACROW Prop outer-tube to standard Scaffolding tube (48.3mm O.D.) inclined bracing
- Standard swivel coupler ACROW Prop inner-tube to Standard scaffold tube inclined bracing
DOUBLE REDUCTION (90o) COUPLER
- Used for coupling ACROW Prop outer-tube to standard Scaffolding tube (48.3 mm O.D.) horizontal bracing
- Standard double (90o) coupler used for coupling ACROW Prop Inner tube to standard scaffold tube horizontal bracing
CHAINLESS PROP PIN
- High tensile pin with solid steel loop
- No tangled or dropped chains
- Reduces loss of pins on the job
COMPONENTS
ACROW PROP HEAD & BASE PLATE:
150mm x 150mm steel plates with drilled holes for Securing to timber beams or facilitating the use of accessories
ACROW PROP INNER-TUBE:
48.3 mm O.D. tube (standard scaffolding tube size) with holes at 152.5mm centers. Tube diameter enables standard scaffold tube & couplers to be used for bracing purposes
ACROW PROP OUTER-TUBE:
60.3mm O.D. tube which accommodates the thread section and slot for fine height adjustment? Reduction couplers enable standard scaffold tube to be connected to the ACROW Prop outer-tube for bracing purposes
THREAD:
The thread on the outer-tube provides infinite height adjustment within the props given range. The rolled thread retains the wall thickness of the tube & thereby maintains maximum strength
NUT:
The self-cleaning nut has a hole at one end for easy turning when the prop handle is close to walls. An additional nut can be added to convert the prop to a push-pull strut.
