Type 3 and Type 4 to BS EN 39:2001 — safety first
Steel scaffolding tube has completely replaced timber and bamboo on site, for the obvious reasons: load carrying capacity and strength. Ours are used for supporting workers, materials, tools and tackle through construction, alteration, demolition and maintenance work.
Because it is workers standing on this material, we manufacture it only from prime quality high-strength steel and certify it to BS EN 39:2001. BS EN 39 specifies Type 3 (3.2 mm wall, 3.56 kg/m) and Type 4 (4.0 mm wall, 4.37 kg/m). We also roll a 3.0 mm light wall tube (3.33 kg/m) to client specification.
Lengths are cut to a client’s requirement on request, and the tube pairs with standard drop-forged and pressed couplers.
