Scaffolding Fittings

The Metal Store now stocks a number of scaffold fittings and tube for use on site or furniture. Each fitting is offered in Pressed Steel or Drop Forged Steel. Pressed Steel is cold pressed into shape from a single piece of material and drop forged steel is formed using heat. The difference is that drop forging leaves the centre of the metal not as hard as the outside, but press forging gives more uniform hardness for larger components.

What are scaffolding fittings and what are they used for

Doing so will decrease the possibility of your structure swaying collapsing or snapping.

There are various types of scaffold fittings to choose from for your desired project. These fittings serve different purposes, therefore it can be challenging to decide on what’s right for you. Our team are here to help and will do their best to support with whatever you need. Fittings include; single, double, wrapover and pressed steel couplers are used for this.
