Adjustable Lightweight Props
Compared to heavy-duty props, lightweight props are easy to handle in construction. They are not suitable for high-load capacity construction propping, but if your concrete slab and shoring need a normal load, lightweight props are enough to hold the weight and can bring great cost savings.
Lightweight props can hold a weight of 20.4 KN at 2.5m, 17 KN at 3.0m height, 14.6 KN at 3.5m and 12.8 KN at 4.0m. Standard sizes of the adjustable light weight props include 1.8-3.2m, 2-3.6m, 2.2-3.9m, 2.5-4.0m, 3.0-5.0m, etc.
Standard light weight props are with top plate and bottom plates. Wellmade can customise lightweight props with a top U head, forkhead, or cross head to make your construction shoring convenient.

Lightweight Props Tripod
Lightweight props always work with formwork tripods in construction, concrete formwork, and shoring support. In Wellmade, you can find square tube-type tripods and round tube steel tripods.
Tripods of lightweight props can be heavy-duty or light-duty types according to your construction requirement.

Fixed & Adjustable Forkhead for Lightweight Props
In shoring work, forkheads are components of the lightweight props. They connect the lightweight props and formwork beams (H20 beams, aluma beams, steel beams, etc) and form the shoring scaffold to support the film-faced plywood before pouring concrete. According to your construction requirement, you can choose fixed type forkhead and adjustable forkhead with a thread screw jack.
Lightweight Props Surface Treatment
In Wellmade, you can find hot-dip galvanised and E-galvanised lightweight props as well as painted and powder-coated steel lightweight props. Hot-dip galvanised steel props are the most durable steel props that last the longest. While painted and powder-coated steel would recognise your lightweight prop’s size by a different colour.
