Adjustable Post Shores
The scaffolding steel post shores comprise the top plates, bottom plates, inner tube(with pin holes ready), outer tube, prop sleeves, prop nut, and G pins. See the components of the post shores below.
Generally, the inner tubes of metal post shores have holes that are make it convenient for prop G pins to lock at a required height in construction without moving, even under heavy bearing. The inner tube has many holes, thus allowing the heavy duty shoring posts to support concrete slabs and beams at various heights.
Basically, the Hiload steel pole shores’ ultimate load capacity is 20 to 50 KN and the sizes of the heavy duty shore posts include PS 0#, PS1#, PS2#, PS3#, and PS4#.
There are medium-duty, heavy-duty, and extremely high-load post shores, which are basic to the loading capacity classes.
- Medium Duty D Class Post Shores with prop tube design of O.D 1.9” Inner Tube and O.D 2.38” Outer Tube.
- Heavy Duty E Class Vertical Post Shores with prop tube design of OD 2.48” Inner Tube and OD 3″ Outer Tube
- D55, E40 and E35 Class Shore Posts: Made of OD3″ Inner Tube and OD3.5″ Outer Tube
The following tables provide the sizes, specifications, unit weight, and safe working load (SWL) of each size of steel post shores.

Features of Post Shore Scaffold Props
- Adjustable to the Height You Want: Post-shores are telescopic, and they can be closed or opened to support your desired height.
- Durability For Repeat and Long-Term Use: The adjustable post-shore props are galvanized or coated and can be repeatedly used in the long term.
- Bearing Heavy Weight With High Load Capacity: Post-shore props are designed with more significant and high-load scaffold tubes, say, outer diameter(O.D) of 60mm, 76mm, and 89mm, with thick tube thickness that can take more weight than typical adjustable scaffold props.
- Safety to Thick Beam and Slab Shoring: Adding post-shore posts can make your scaffolding shoring safe, especially for some thick beam and slab concrete shoring construction.
- Ease to Use: The adjustable steel post-shore props can be placed anywhere you need support, which is simpler and easier to use in construction than scaffolding(which needs to be fixed and connected by fittings and connectors).
- Simple In The Height Adjusting: You only need to insert prop lock pins inside the holes of the inner tube and turn the prop collar to reach the support height you want.
- Versatile for Any Construction: Ideal for any scaffolding, formwork, temporary structure, or building support applications.
- Easy to Transport: Post shore props are single and straight; they can be closed in shorter lengths, which ties up less space and is easy to transport.
How to Use Post Shore Props
- Adjust to the desired height according to construction needs
- Secure the prop G Pin into the holes of the inner tube and the slot of the outer tube sleeves.
- Slightly turn the prop nut on the prop sleeves to ensure an exact height without gaps.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can Post Shore be compatible with Fork Head, Cross Head, and U Head?
The post shore’s top and bottom plates have holes. They are compatible with the forehead, U head and crosshead. Insert the spigot of the top heads into the holes on the top plate of the post-shores to support your formwork concrete.
What is the post-shore surface treatment for Anti-corrosion Purposes?
Post shores are steel. The surface treatment of the steel post-shores includes galvanization and coating. Galvanizing post-shores include cold galvanizing(zinc-plated) and hot dip galvanizing (HDG). Coated post shores include painted and powder coated. You can ask for all the different treatment prices for a comparison and then decide. Consult us by mail about the differences in the surface treatment regarding anti-corrosion function.
