Base Plate Tube

Altrad Generation's Base Plate Tube is a robust scaffold fitting designed to offer a stable foundation for vertical Scaffold Tubes. Constructed from high-grade steel, our Base Plate Tubes are built to withstand significant loads and the rigours of heavy-duty scaffolding applications. The welded tube section provides a strong and aligned connection for the Scaffold Tube to be securely inserted, contributing to the overall stability and safety of the scaffold structure. This combination fitting is ideal for use on hard, level ground where height adjustment is not required, such as concrete or tarmac surfaces. It provides efficient load distribution and ensures the scaffold structure remains steady and upright.

As part of our comprehensive range of Scaffold Fittings and manufactured to BS1139, this heavy duty base plate tube meets strict safety and performance standards as well as essential for projects requiring exceptional stability and load-bearing capabilities. To complete your scaffold base setup, this base plate is often paired with Scaffold Tubes and couplers such as Drop Forged Swivel Coupler to form a robust and reliable scaffolding system.
