Wellmade Scaffold Forged Double Coupler
Wellmade forged double coupler is a type of 90-degree scaffolding clamp. It is scaffolding bearing fittings to fixed the scaffold tubes at a right angle in construction. That is why the forged scaffold double couplers are also called right-angle couplers, rigid clamps, and forged fixed clamps.
As a leading scaffolding clamp manufacturer, Wellmade produces the forged double coupler scaffolding according to EN 74 and BS 1139 standard. More than that, Wellmade double coupler is a Class B high-level scaffolding double coupler, which is able to bear a heavier load than the normal Class A forged double coupler.
Wellmade forged double coupler is always finished galvanized. According to the galvanizing types, there are zinc-plated forged double couplers and hot dip galvanized fixed clamps.
Zinc-plated forged double couplers are also called E-galvanized scaffolding fixed clamps. It is asked by most scaffolding and construction companies. You can find different colors for your zinc-plated forged double couplers. Include blue, white, and yellow(golden).
Hot-dip galvanized forged double coupler scaffold is with thicker zinc thickness. It is more durable than the zinc-plated forged double couplers. In construction, the hot-dip galvanized forged double couplers are required mostly by the oil gas companies, marine service contractors, etc. HDG protects the forged double couplers from corrosion in long term. Even under the special ocean environment and onshore and offshore scaffolding projects.
With the tested and approved high quality, Wellmade is the authorized scaffolding forged double coupler supplier for many famous oil gas companies. Like Shell, Sinopec, China Petroleum, KNPC, and KOC, etc.
According to the sizes, O.D 48.3mm forged double couplers are the most popular scaffold fittings. It is scaffold connectors between two scaffold tubes in 48.3mm diameter.
If you are going to fix props to the scaffold tubes or fixed bridge leg(bridge post) to the scaffold tube. The forged double coupler sizes will be O.D 60x48mm, O.D 76x48mm, O.D89x48mm.

Germany Type Forged Double Coupler
Germany type forged double coupler is heavier than British BS1139 scaffold double couplers. The weight is 1.45KG. According to the bolt screw, there are quick thread and normal thread Germany forged double couplers.
Normal threaded Germany forged double coupler is used in most German scaffolding and formwork companies. While quick threaded Germany forged double couplers are also called round threaded double scaffold clamps. applied by Layher and RUX scaffolding companies.
Both Germany-type forged double couplers are with M14 Bolt and flange collar nuts. While the quick thread bolts are easier for hot-dip galvanizing finishing.
Australia Type Forged Double Coupler
Australia Type forged double coupler is 1.17KG. It is with a much heavier weight than normal British scaffolding clamps. While the AS1576 standard forged double couplers are with 23mm flange nut. Some Australian scaffolding companies ask British lightweight forged double coupler with a 23mm flange nut to save costs.
US Type Forged Double Coupler
The US type forged double coupler is also called durable scaffolding coupler. Different from T bolt of other types of scaffolding forged double couplers, the American standard forged double coupler uses I bolts. Thus it is also called I bolt right-angle coupler.
The 2″ (O.D48.3mm) American forged double couplers are 1.45KG. Which are the heaviest O.D 48.3mm forged double couplers in the scaffolding industry. While you can find more sizes in 2.36″ and 3.5″ forged double couplers for post shore support and sidewalk bridge post support. O.D 1.68″ forged double coupler are also available in customized manufacturing.
Wellmade produces both E-galvanized and hot dip galvanized I bolt forged right angle scaffold coupler for the USA and Canada scaffolding and formwork companies.
Scaffold Forged Double Coupler Scaffold Capacity
Wellmade forged double coupler scaffolding are tested conforming to EN 74 Class B, which is a heavy-duty class in the scaffolding industry. You can compare the following EN74 Class A and EN 74 Class B failure force capacity and slipping force Requirements.

Wellmade is an ISO9001 scaffold forged double coupler manufacturer and exporter in China. The forged double couplers are tested from raw material to slip and distortion test as well as galvanizing salty spray test. More than that, you can find the forged double coupler scaffolding ultimate capacity, strengths, and slip forces of your forged double coupler order. According to the EN 74 Class B requirement, Wellmade forged double coupler slipping force is more than 15KN while the failure load is more than 30KN. See the test result of the Wellmade forged double coupler with test methods of EN 74 Class B standard.

Forged Double Coupler and Swivel Coupler
A forged double coupler is used to fix the scaffolding tubes at rigid 90 degrees. So forged double couplers in some countries are called rigid scaffold clamps. While swivel coupler is able to make the scaffold tube connected at any angle in construction. The swivel coupler is assembly by two forged half clamps by a rivet. Thus swivel coupler is also called a double swivel coupler or rotated scaffold clamp. There are forged type and pressed type swivel couplers for your choosing. in Wellmade.

Forged Double Coupler Using In Tubular and Modular Scaffold
Forged double coupler is used a lot in the tubular scaffolding system. It is used to fix the galvanized scaffold tubes in order to form the scaffold verticals, ledger, and transoms, etc. While the forged double couplers are also standardized sizes, thus it is also used in all types of steel and aluminum modular scaffolding systems to help the modular scaffold able to be used in all shapes and types of construction. The modular scaffolding system could be ringlock, quick stage, cuplock, quick lock, frame scaffolding, etc.
