The Kwikstage Galvanized Topper is a premium-quality scaffolding component designed to provide a secure and weather-resistant connection at the top of scaffolding uprights. Manufactured from high-tensile galvanized steel, this topper features a cylindrical shape with internal ribbing for enhanced strength and a precision-engineered socket that fits snugly onto standard Kwikstage uprights. The hot-dip galvanized finish offers superior protection against rust and chemical corrosion, making it a reliable choice for demanding construction sites. The topper is designed to support horizontal ledgers, transoms, or guardrails, ensuring a stable platform for workers and materials.
Enhanced Load Capacity: With a maximum load rating of 300kg, the topper's ribbed interior design distributes weight evenly, reducing stress on connecting points.
Weather-Proof Performance: The galvanized coating meets ISO 1461 standards, providing a service life of over 20 years in moderate climates without significant degradation.
Easy Alignment: The precision-machined socket ensures a 10mm tolerance fit, allowing workers to align ledgers quickly and accurately without hammering or forced adjustments.
Versatile Design: Compatible with both 48.3mm and 60.3mm diameter tubes, it can be used as a top connector for main frames or as an adapter for special scaffolding configurations.
Ideal for projects requiring a secure top connection in scaffolding systems, the Galvanized Topper is commonly used in:
Commercial building facades where guardrail installation is mandatory
Industrial scaffolding for tank maintenance and pipework access
Residential construction for roof access platforms and dormer installations
Temporary exhibition structures that require frequent assembly and disassembly.
Q: Does the topper come with fixing bolts?
A: No, it relies on friction fit and standard Kwikstage ledger pins for secure connection. Bolts are optional for high-wind zones.
Q: Can it be painted over the galvanized finish?
A: Yes, but we recommend applying a zinc-rich primer first to ensure paint adhesion and maintain corrosion resistance.
Q: What is the weight of each topper?
A: Approximately 0.8kg, making it lightweight for easy handling while maintaining structural integrity.
Q: Is it suitable for seismic zones?
A: When used with properly braced scaffolding systems, it complies with seismic design standards such as ASCE 7-16 for regions with low to moderate seismic activity.
