Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is a pressed steel putlog coupler?
A. A pressed steel putlog coupler performs the same function as a drop forged putlog coupler, connecting putlog and transom tubes to ledgers to support scaffold boards. It is manufactured from pressed sheet steel rather than drop forged steel for a more economical option in lighter duty applications.
Q. When is a pressed steel putlog coupler appropriate?
A. Use a pressed steel putlog coupler for board support connections in lighter duty or temporary scaffold applications within the coupler's rated load capacity. For heavy duty or primary structural scaffold, specify the drop forged putlog coupler.
Q. What tube diameter does the pressed steel putlog coupler fit?
A. Pressed steel putlog couplers from Altrad Generation fit 3.2mm and 4.0mm scaffold tube.
Q. Is a pressed steel putlog coupler compliant with UK scaffolding regulations?
A. Altrad Generation pressed steel putlog couplers are manufactured to relevant British Standards and are suitable for scaffold board support connections within their rated load capacity. Always follow your scaffold design specification for coupler selection. Contact your local branch for compliance documentation.
Q. Are pressed steel putlog couplers available alongside other pressed fittings?
A. Yes. Altrad Generation supplies pressed steel putlog couplers as part of the complete pressed steel scaffold fittings range, alongside pressed steel double couplers, pressed steel swivel couplers, and pressed base plates.
