BS Type Scaffold Putlog Coupler 48×48 mm

Scaffold putlog coupler is the fitting used to connect transoms or putlogs to scaffold tubes in modular scaffolding. It helps support board-bearing members, keeps the working platform connection more secure, and gives contractors a practical fitting for stable bay construction.

Scaffold Putlog Coupler for Tube and Clamp Scaffolding

Putlog Coupler for Transom Connection

This reliable putlog coupler assists with connecting the putlog or transoms to the main tube, as well as aids in a safer build of platform sections that are later transported into position on modular scaffolding. The fittings serve an important purpose when stable board support and reliable transfer of loads at the working level into the footing are needed. Good connection accuracy in actual tube and clamp scaffolding use allows crews to assemble faster and have a more stable structure.

BS Type 48×48 mm with Q235B Material

BS-type scaffold putlog couplers are the standard 48×48 mm size, matching general connection requirements of scaffolds, and are produced by Huilai. The product is made of Q235B material, which provides a good combination of strength and dimensional accuracy, combined with excellent value for a mold that can be used repeatedly.

Scaffolding Putlog Coupler with EP or HDG Finish

Both EP and HDG surface treatments are provided for our scaffolding putlog coupler, which offers flexibility in appearance, corrosion protection, and market demand. This facilitates easy handling and packing as well as planning for bulk orders; its weight is 0.65 kg. Moreover, the product is BS1139 compliant, a practical fit for customers looking for base-standard components to be used in export and regular project supply.

Reliable Supply for Scaffolding Systems

Huilai, as the scaffolding factory, supports importers, distributors, and contractors seeking reliable fittings. Our scaffold putlog coupler works in tandem with larger scaffolding systems and a full tube and clamp scaffolding system. Scaffold buyers are turning to us for sourcing reliable connection hardware for both wholesale orders and project-based procurement.

PRODUCT FAQ

FAQ for Scaffold Product Buyers

These answers are based on the product details, common RFQ questions, and export order requirements.

Final dimensions, finish, packing, and delivery terms should be confirmed before quotation.

A putlog coupler is used to connect two scaffold tubes at right angles with a single-bolt or wedge-type connection. In tube-and-coupler scaffolding, it is commonly used to secure a putlog or transom to a ledger where the connection arrangement is designed for a putlog coupler. It should be selected for its intended joint rather than treated as a general-purpose scaffold coupler.

No. The 6.0 kN figure in BS 1139-2.2 is the minimum characteristic slip resistance obtained under the specified test procedure, not a 6 kN safe working load for site use. The same standard gives an informative safe working load of 0.63 kN for slipping force under the permissive-stress design method. Buyers should therefore not convert the 6 kN test value directly into an allowable scaffold load.

Confirm the scaffold tube outside diameter and wall thickness, coupler body style, bolt and nut arrangement, applicable standard, and the type of joint where the fitting will be used. BS 1139-2.2 also requires product information to identify the specific scaffold tube type and thickness with which each fitting is compatible. For replacement orders, a sample or close-up photos of the existing coupler are useful.

No, not for a connection that is designed to use a structural right-angle double coupler. A putlog coupler uses a simpler single-bolt connection and has different structural performance requirements. Double couplers are normally used for primary right-angle tube-to-tube joints, while putlog couplers are intended for specific putlog or transom connections.

Its geometry is designed specifically for a right-angle putlog-type connection. BS 1139 defines a putlog coupler as connecting two scaffold tubes at right angles by tightening a single bolt or driving a wedge. This simpler arrangement is one reason it should not automatically be substituted for a double coupler used at a primary structural joint.

Do not reuse a coupler if the body is cracked or badly deformed, the jaw no longer seats correctly on the tube, the bolt or nut is damaged, or corrosion and wear prevent secure tightening. The condition of the working surfaces and corrosion protection affects coupler performance, so used fittings should be inspected before being returned to service.
