The Kwikstage Galvanised Steel Plank is a premium scaffolding platform component designed for durability, safety, and versatility in heavy-duty applications. Constructed from high-grade galvanized steel, this plank features a corrugated non-slip surface that enhances traction and reduces water pooling, even in adverse conditions. The plank is reinforced with longitudinal ribs to distribute loads evenly, supporting up to 600kg uniformly distributed. It includes integral hooks at both ends that fit securely onto Kwikstage ledgers, with a safety lip that prevents accidental dislodgement. Available in lengths from 1.2m to 3.6m, the plank’s galvanized finish provides exceptional corrosion resistance, making it suitable for long-term outdoor use in any climate.
Superior Traction Surface: The deep corrugations and anti-slip texture exceed industry standards for friction, reducing the risk of slips and falls, especially when wet or icy.
Reinforced Structure: The ribbed design and welded end plates increase stiffness and impact resistance, minimizing flexing under heavy loads and extending the plank’s service life.
Secure Hook Design: The hooks feature a tapered profile that locks onto ledgers with a positive click, ensuring a stable connection that withstands lateral movement and vibrations.
Full Galvanization: The hot-dip process ensures every surface, including the hook edges and undersides, is protected by a durable zinc layer, ideal for coastal, industrial, or high-moisture environments.
The Kwikstage Galvanised Steel Plank is the go-to choice for construction and industrial projects requiring a reliable, long-lasting platform. In high-rise building projects, it forms the primary working surface for masons, glaziers, and painters, supporting heavy tools and materials at great heights. It is also essential in infrastructure projects, such as tunnel and bridge construction, where planks are exposed to constant moisture, debris, and heavy traffic. In offshore oil and gas facilities, the plank’s corrosion resistance makes it suitable for scaffolding around rigs or platforms exposed to saltwater and harsh weather. Additionally, it is used in temporary structures like pedestrian walkways or event stages, where safety and durability are paramount.
Q: Can the galvanised plank be used with other scaffolding systems?
A: The hooks are designed for Kwikstage ledgers, but adapters may be available for other systems. Always verify compatibility to ensure safety.
Q: How do I clean the corrugated surface?
A: Use a pressure washer or stiff brush to remove debris from the grooves. Avoid using acidic cleaners that may damage the galvanized finish.
Q: What is the fire resistance rating of the steel plank?
A: Steel is non-combustible, making these planks safer than wooden alternatives in fire-prone environments like welding or cutting sites.
Q: Can damaged planks be repaired?
A: Minor dents or rust spots can be treated, but cracked ribs or deformed hooks require immediate replacement as they compromise structural integrity.
