Kwikstage Painted Transoms are horizontal components designed to connect Kwikstage standards and support scaffold planks or platforms, offering a cost-effective solution for non-corrosive environments. Manufactured from high-grade steel with a durable epoxy paint finish, these transoms feature a rectangular hollow section (RHS) with pre-welded clip-on brackets that attach to Kwikstage standards at 500mm or 600mm intervals. Available in lengths from 0.9m to 3.6m, they accommodate different bay sizes and load requirements, with a maximum uniformly distributed load of 1,200kg. The paint finish is available in standard industrial colors, providing basic protection against abrasion and UV damage while allowing for easy system identification.
Cost-Effective Coating: The epoxy paint finish offers moderate corrosion resistance at a lower cost than galvanization, making it suitable for short-term projects or indoor use.
Quick Clip-On Installation: The pre-welded brackets allow transoms to be clipped onto standards without tools, reducing installation time and improving site efficiency.
Load Distribution Design: The RHS profile and reinforced bracket welds ensure even load distribution across the transom and connected standards, minimizing deflection under heavy loads.
Modular Compatibility: Fully compatible with Kwikstage ledgers, planks, and braces, these transoms integrate seamlessly into existing systems for unified scaffolding setups.
Kwikstage Painted Transoms are ideal for construction projects in dry, low-moisture environments, such as interior renovations, warehouse fit-outs, or temporary indoor scaffolding. They are commonly used to create working platforms in office buildings, retail spaces, or educational facilities, where the risk of corrosion is minimal. In industrial settings, they support maintenance platforms in dry factories or processing plants, facilitating access to machinery or overhead systems. The painted finish also makes them suitable for projects requiring color-coded components for safety or organizational purposes, such as distinguishing between load-bearing and non-load-bearing elements.
Q: How long does the paint finish last outdoors?
A: In moderate climates, the finish lasts 2-3 years. For outdoor use, consider galvanized transoms or apply a protective topcoat to extend lifespan.
Q: Can they be used with galvanized Kwikstage components?
A: Yes, they are fully compatible with all Kwikstage standards and ledgers, regardless of surface treatment.
Q: What is the difference between painted and galvanized transoms?
A: Painted transoms are more economical for short-term or indoor use, while galvanized transoms offer superior corrosion resistance for outdoor or long-term projects.
Q: Can they be cut to custom lengths on-site?
A: Yes, but cutting must be done with a proper metal saw, and the cut ends should be painted to prevent rust. Reduced length may affect load capacity—consult specifications first.
