Cuplock Scaffolding – Quick Assembly Scaffolding for Constructions

Cuplock scaffolding is a kind of multi-purpose steel tube scaffold system that can be used as load-bearing scaffold and working scaffold.

Its unique joint connection allows up to four ledgers to be connected to a standard in one single clamping action without nuts and bolts. The locking device consists of two cups: one is the lower cup welded to the predetermined intervals on the standard member and the other is the sliding upper cup. The ledger forged steel blades are inserted into the lower cup. The upper cup is moved down and rotated to secure ledger forged blades in place by hammering, thereby providing a positive and rigid connection.

It can be flexibly assembled into modular scaffolding, birdcage scaffolding, suspended scaffolding, mobile scaffolding and supported scaffolding. It is widely used in industrial facilities, oil refineries, shipyards, construction sites, temporary stands, etc.

Assemble Process

The picture shows the proper assemble process of cuplock scaffold ledger with lower and upper cups.
  1. Slide the upper cup upward and locate the ledger forged blades into the lower cup;
  2. Slide the upper cup down to cover the ledger forged blades;
  3. Hammer the upper cup to ensure the rigid connection between the ledger and the standard.
