Pressed Steel Double Couplers – Scaffold Tube Fitting

A pressed steel double coupler is a load-bearing fitting with a slip resistance of 6.10kN. Double couplers are used to join two scaffold poles in a 90-degree position. Each double weighs approximately 1.0kg, is tested, and conforms to BS 1139 1991, EN74 A standards.

We also stock single couplers for connecting scaffolding board supports called transoms to ledgers, base plates for distributing the weight of the scaffold legs and swivel fittings for diagonal bracing.

Description

This fitting connects two galvanised steel tubes at a right angle. There are two parts to this fitting: where a vertical and horizontal tube can pass through and create the 90-degree angle. The coupler is then tightened using a scaffolding spanner or an impact wrench that safely secures it.

These fittings are suitable for use with steel or aluminium scaffolding tubes that are 48.3 millimetres in diameter.

They connect two poles at a 90-degree right angle.

This coupler has an approximate safe working load of around 6.1kN and is ideal for use on ledgers, standards, transoms, or braces within a scaffolding framework. They are perfect for resisting tension and compressive loads.

The stark difference between these two fittings is that the double is fixed to hold the tube at a 90-degree angle, whereas the swivel can hold tubes at any angle with its “swivel” movement.

A pressed steel double weighs approx. 1.0kg.

This item is made from pressed steel and is zinc plated, which protects the clamp from rust and corrosion.

A fixed coupler is another name for a double fitting, as this product joins two tubes in a fixed position.

Yes, the metal is stamped with details of the quality standards, which are BS 1139 1991 and EN74 A.

This product should be regularly inspected for damage to any part of the fitting or the nuts and bolts. To help keep them in perfect working order, you can use a special fitting lubricant that you spray or dip them in, which protects further against rust and corrosion.
