How are Acrow props used?
Acrow props are installed vertically to support ceilings, beams, or walls during structural work. Position the base securely on a flat surface and use the adjustable collar to fine-tune the height. For wall removals, pair with specialist masonry support systems where applicable.
How much weight can Acrow props take?
Depending on the size (typically Size 0 to 4), Acrow props can handle loads from 1,050 kg to over 3,000 kg. Always consult our technical guides and ensure props are set up according to safety standards, including BS4074:1982.
