Scaffold Board Retaining Clamp

The scaffold board retaining clamps we supply are used to secure scaffolding boards to metal scaffold tubes to create a working platform. They are crucial for safety because they help prevent accidents caused by shifting, uplifting or movement of the boards and ensure a stable work platform.

This fitting weighs approximately 0.61kg each. It has a section through which a scaffold tube passes, which is secured with a nut and bolt; the double flanges featured on the fitting sit flush on the top of the boards, which holds the board securely in place. Board retaining clamps can also be referred to as BRC, board clamps, board clips, plank retaining clips, board retainers, steel board clamps, and retaining clips.

Description

What is a scaffold board retaining clamp?

Board retaining clips firmly secure scaffold boards to the tube on a scaffolding structure. They prevent the movement of the boards on the working platform.

Board retaining clamps are typically designed to secure 38mm thick scaffolding boards.

Scaffold board retaining clamps are lightweight and weigh around 0.61 kilograms each.

This product is made from galvanised pressed steel.

These clamps comply with BS 1139 standards, ensuring your scaffold platforms’ safety and stability.

Board retaining clamps are typically designed for use with 48.3mm diameter scaffold tubes, a standard size that ensures compatibility with most scaffolding systems.

Installation is straightforward. The clamp sits on top of the boards; you then attach the clamp to a 48.3mm scaffold tube. The clamp’s unique design automatically grips the boards securely when tightened, effectively preventing movement.

Traditionally, a spanner with a swivel hex box head tightens retaining clips to the tubes. This fitting is secured by placing the spanner over the coupler nut and turning it. However, modern scaffolders often utilise impact drills for faster tightening.

No, these fittings clip onto the board and hold it in place without leaving any marks or damage.

No, this clamp is designed solely to secure scaffolding boards to scaffold poles to keep the boards from moving.

While essential for safety, board retaining clamps are not load-bearing components. They stabilise the working platform by securing the boards; however, the tubes, braces, ledgers, and standards act as the load-bearing elements that support the weight of the structure and workers.

Secure your scaffold boards using board retaining clips.

Scaffold board retaining clamps are essential for securing the working platform on any scaffolding structure. Their ease of use, durability, and crucial role in preventing accidents make them an indispensable tool for professionals in the construction industry.
