RING LOCK STANDARD (VERTICAL)

In the world of modular scaffolding, the Ring lock system is the gold standard for versatility and load-bearing capacity. The interaction between the Standard (the vertical backbone) and the Ledger (the horizontal connector) is what gives the system its structural integrity.

Here is the technical breakdown of these core components.

The Standard (Vertical Post)

The Standard is the primary load-bearing member of the scaffold. It features fixed circular "rosettes" welded at regular intervals (typically every 500mm).

Technical Specifications

• Material: High-strength structural steel.
• Finish: Hot-dip galvanized (HDG) for maximum corrosion resistance.
• Tube Dimensions: Standard diameter of 48.3mm with a wall thickness typically ranging from 3.0mm to 4.0mm.
• Rosette Points: Each rosette has 8 openings:
  • 4 small openings: Fixed at 90° for ledgers (right angles).
  • 4 large openings: For diagonal braces, allowing for various angles.
