Frequently Asked Questions
Forged couplers are made from heated round bars, making them the strongest and most durable for heavy-duty loads, while pressed couplers are formed from steel plates, offering a balanced cost-to-strength ratio for medium-duty applications.
Casting couplers are the most cost-effective option due to a simpler manufacturing process and lower material costs, making them popular in budget-conscious markets.
Yes, our pressed scaffold couplers are specifically designed to meet BS1139/EN74 standards, typically used with 3.2mm wall thickness pipes.
We use high-quality zinc plating for pressed and forged couplers, and professional painting for casting couplers to protect against oxidation and environmental wear.
We offer Double Couplers for 90-degree right-angle joints, Swivel Couplers for adjustable angle connections, and Joint Couplers for end-to-end pipe extensions.
Forged couplers undergo rigorous roundness tests, safety load tests, and slip tests to ensure they can withstand extreme pressure without failure.
