Pressed Base Plate
At Altrad Generation, we supply high quality, compliant pressed base plates for a reliable and efficient foundation for your scaffolding structures across the UK. These base plates, measuring 150mm x 150mm, offer a balance of lightweight handling and robust stability. Manufactured from pressed steel, they provide a solid load-bearing surface for Scaffold Tubes. The integrated 24mm wide pressed pin ensures a secure and stable connection when inserted into the bottom of a Scaffold Tube. This precise fit minimises movement and contributes to the overall safety and integrity of the scaffold structure.
Weighing only 0.35kg, this self-coloured (uncoated) base plate is ideal for jobs where weight, handling, and transport efficiency are important, without compromising on safety or performance. Although it’s not designed for use on uneven or soft ground (where Base Jacks and Sole Boards are recommended), the pressed base plate is ideal for interior work, short-term scaffolds, or temporary support systems on hard surfaces. As a key component within our comprehensive range of Scaffold Fittings, this 2mm pressed base plate is designed for seamless integration with other scaffolding components, such as Scaffold Tubes and scaffold couplers such as Drop Forged Swivel Coupler and Pressed Steel Double Coupler.
