Kwikstage Painted Hopup Brackets are versatile height-adjustment components designed for Kwikstage scaffolding systems, offering a cost-effective alternative to galvanized versions for non-corrosive environments. Constructed from high-quality steel, these brackets feature a durable powder-coat paint finish in standard industrial colors (typically grey or yellow), providing protection against minor abrasion and UV fading. The bracket design includes a dual-lock mechanism with adjustable clamps that secure tightly to standards and ledgers, enabling platform height adjustments in 500mm increments. Available in multiple lengths (300mm, 600mm, 900mm), they accommodate different scaffold board widths and load requirements, with a maximum capacity of 600kg per bracket. The painted finish allows for easy identification and integration into projects with specific aesthetic or safety marking needs.
Cost-Effective Coating: The powder-coat paint finish offers basic corrosion resistance at a lower cost than galvanization, making it suitable for short-term projects or regions with mild climates.
Adjustable Height Increments: With multiple length options, these brackets enable precise platform height adjustments to match project requirements, whether for accessing roof overhangs, mezzanine levels, or temporary work platforms.
Enhanced Visibility: The bright paint colors (e.g., yellow) improve safety by making the brackets more noticeable during installation and use, reducing the risk of accidental misplacement or misconnection.
Tool-Free Installation: The spring-loaded locking levers allow scaffolders to attach and detach brackets quickly using only a hammer or mallet, streamlining workflow and reducing labor costs.
Kwikstage Painted Hopup Brackets are ideal for construction and maintenance projects in environments with low moisture or chemical exposure, such as inland regions, dry climates, or indoor installations. They are commonly used in residential building projects for adjusting scaffolding around eaves, balconies, or bay windows, where temporary height modifications are needed. In industrial settings, they support platform adjustments in warehouses or factories with dry atmospheres, facilitating equipment installation or maintenance at varying heights. Additionally, these brackets are popular in event and exhibition scaffolding, where their customizable paint colors can align with brand aesthetics or safety signage requirements.
Q: How does the painted finish compare to galvanized in terms of lifespan?
A: The painted finish typically lasts 3-5 years in moderate environments, while galvanized brackets last 10-15 years. Choose painted brackets for short-term use or non-corrosive settings.
Q: Can the paint be touched up on-site?
A: Yes, minor scratches can be touched up with matching industrial paint to maintain corrosion resistance. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before applying touch-ups.
Q: Are these brackets suitable for coastal areas?
A: No, the painted finish is not recommended for high-salt environments. Use galvanized brackets instead to prevent rapid rusting.
Q: Do they comply with international safety standards?
A: Yes, they meet EN 1090 and AS/NZS 1576.1 standards when used as part of a fully engineered Kwikstage system.
