The Ringlock Side Bracket is a versatile connection component designed to extend the functionality of Ringlock scaffolding systems by enabling horizontal or angled attachments to standards. Constructed from high-strength steel with a galvanized finish, this bracket features a circular ring adapter that fits seamlessly onto Ringlock standards, along with a protruding arm that can support ledgers, transoms, or other components at 90° or custom angles. The arm is adjustable in 15° increments, allowing for precise alignment with architectural features or complex structures. With a load-bearing capacity of 800kg (vertical) and 500kg (lateral), it supports both heavy loads and dynamic forces. The bracket’s compact design minimizes material usage while maximizing structural efficiency.
Angled Adaptability: The adjustable arm allows for connections at multiple angles (0°, 15°, 30°, etc.), making it ideal for non-orthogonal scaffolding designs, such as curved facades or sloped roofs.
Ringlock Compatibility: The integrated ring adapter ensures a secure fit on standard Ringlock nodes, enabling quick installation without additional connectors.
Reinforced Welds: The bracket’s critical joints are fully welded and tested to ensure load distribution across the standard and connected components, reducing stress concentrations.
Space-Saving Design: The compact profile minimizes interference with adjacent components, making it suitable for tight spaces where traditional brackets would be cumbersome.
The Ringlock Side Bracket is essential for projects requiring non-standard scaffolding configurations. In architectural construction, it supports platforms around circular columns, domed roofs, or irregularly shaped buildings, where traditional straight ledgers cannot conform to the geometry. In industrial maintenance, it enables the installation of access platforms around cylindrical tanks or pipelines at specific angles, improving worker reach and safety. It is also used in bridge scaffolding to create support structures for curved girders or inclined piers. Additionally, the bracket is valuable in event scaffolding for creating angled stages, ramps, or decorative frameworks that require precise geometric alignment.
Q: Can the side bracket be used for vertical extensions?
A: No, it is designed for horizontal or angled connections. For vertical extensions, use standard Ringlock couplers or extension pieces.
Q: What is the maximum angle for lateral loads?
A: The bracket is rated for lateral loads up to 500kg at angles up to 45°. Beyond 45°, consult a structural engineer for load calculations.
Q: Does it require additional bracing for angled installations?
A: Yes, angled connections may require diagonal bracing to maintain stability. Always follow engineered drawings for bracing requirements.
Q: Can it be used with wooden transoms?
A: Yes, as long as the transom dimensions match the bracket’s arm width (typically 50mm), and the load does not exceed rated capacities.
