Heavy duty double bolt Malleable iron cast steel metal hose clamp
Our EN74 / BS1139 compliant Steel Galvanized Swivel Coupler Clamps are engineered scaffolding components designed to securely connect scaffold tubes at any angle. Available in drop-forged, pressed steel, and cast iron variants, these couplers provide reliable, high-strength connections essential for construction, industrial maintenance, and temporary structural applications .
Manufactured from Q235 grade steel with a protective hot-dip galvanized or electro-galvanized surface finish, these couplers deliver exceptional corrosion resistance and structural integrity even in demanding outdoor and coastal environments. Compliance with EN74-1 and BS1139 standards ensures they meet rigorous international safety and quality benchmarks for scaffolding fittings .
Key Features & Benefits
-
Three Manufacturing Options: Choose between drop-forged couplers for maximum strength and heavy-duty applications (Class B), pressed steel couplers for a cost-effective balance of performance and economy, or cast iron variants for general-purpose use .
-
BS1139 & EN74-1 Certified: Fully compliant with British and European scaffolding standards, ensuring safety and regulatory acceptance on professional construction sites .
-
Versatile Swivel Design: Allows connection of scaffold tubes at any angle (360° rotation), providing flexibility for complex scaffolding configurations, bracing, and diagonal supports .
-
Superior Corrosion Protection: Hot-dip galvanized or electro-zinc plated surface treatment delivers long service life, even in high-humidity or salt-exposed environments .
-
High-Strength Material: Constructed from Q235 steel with Grade 8.8 T-bolts and nuts (1/2" × 82mm), ensuring reliable load-bearing capacity and slip resistance .
-
Anti-Slip Design: Ribbed internal surfaces provide enhanced grip and prevent tube slippage under load .
-
Secure Fastening: Equipped with captive nuts (AF 21mm–23mm) to prevent loss during assembly and disassembly, compatible with standard spanners .
