Coupler & Fittings

Pressed Double Coupler
Pressed Double Couplers connect two scaffold tubes at right angles. These are critical components in the scaffold structure and must be load bearing to resist both slip and distortion. The design is based on a strong one piece body with flaps and T-bolts that can be removed for maintenance or replacement.

Pressed Swivel Coupler
Pressed Swivel Couplers connect two scaffold tubes at any angle to provide a ledger brace, facde, or similar bracing.

Sleeve Couplers join two scaffold tubes externally end to end. A steel divider located centrally ensures equal insertion of each tube. They can be employed where tension joints are required and therefore are particularly useful for long bracing and ledger tubes.

Connects putlog or transom tubes to ledger tubes for the support of scaffold boards. The one piece body has been carefully designed and press-formed to provide the maximum resistance to movement and a long working life. It is not required to be a load bearing coupler.

There is often a requirement to fasten scaffold tubes to girders and other steel sections which demands a specialized fitting with a high degree of versatility. The Gravlock Girder Coupler has been specifically designed for attachment to either horizontal or vertical flanges, and will accommodate up to 43mm (1 ¾'').

In erection, the Gravlock Coupler is highly effective, as it enables the fitting to be bolted to the girder first, leaving both hands free to present and secure the tube. As the tube is not compressed against the girder it is not distored by the fastening process. Gravolock couplers must be used in pairs.

Provides end to end connection of scaffold tubes. Operates by being inserted internally and expands to apply grip against the inner walls of the tubes. The fittings are designed only for compression joints, and should not be used where tension can be developed in the tubes.

Used to convert a scaffold tube into a putlog, making the maximum use of short lengths of tube.

Used for the construction of temporary stairways by connecting together scaffold tubes and timbers (often scaffold boards) with angles ranging from 28° to 90°. These units can be used either left of right handed.
