Cuplock Standard Sizes & Weight Chart
Choosing the correct Cuplock Standard depends on scaffold height, working load, bay spacing, and project requirements. AMCO Exports manufactures standards in the most commonly used international sizes.
| Length (m) | Approx. Weight (kg) |
|---|---|
| 1.8 | 8.40 |
| 2.0 | 9.50 |
| 2.3 | 10.90 |
| 2.5 | 11.90 |
| 2.8 | 13.34 |
| 3.0 | 14.30 |
For example, a 3.0 m Cuplock Standard weighs approximately 14.30 kg, depending on tube thickness, cup configuration, and manufacturing specifications.
How Does a Cuplock Standard Work?
A Cuplock Standard acts as the backbone of the Cuplock scaffolding system. Fixed bottom cups are welded at regular intervals along the vertical tube, while movable top cups lock horizontal ledgers and intermediate transoms securely into position.
This simple locking mechanism eliminates the need for loose fittings, allowing faster erection, improved structural rigidity, and efficient load transfer from working platforms to the foundation through adjustable base jacks.
- Supports vertical scaffold loads
- Connects ledgers and intermediate transoms
- Maintains scaffold alignment
- Transfers loads safely to the base
- Provides rigid node connections
- Reduces installation time
- Improves overall scaffold stability
- Suitable for high-rise and heavy-duty applications
Cuplock Standard Load Capacity
The load capacity of a Cuplock Standard depends on steel grade, wall thickness, scaffold height, bay spacing, bracing arrangement, and overall structural design. When properly designed, Cuplock scaffolding offers excellent load-bearing performance for demanding construction projects.
| Component | Typical Load Capacity |
|---|---|
| Cuplock Standard | 20–60 kN |
| Horizontal Ledger | Up to 10 kN |
| Base Jack | 40–60 kN |
Actual load capacity varies depending on scaffold design and should always be verified by a qualified structural engineer.
