The “wedge transom” system that uses only two wedges to produce a rigid unit that speeds scaffold erection significantly resulting in large savings on labour costs.
The transoms are designed to be used in conjunction with scaffold tube standards and ledgers to form a quickly erected, 5 board wide “system” access scaffold.
Intermediate transoms (board bearer) also available to support the scaffold boards used for decking.
Methods and Benefits of Use
Located and fixed in a few seconds, easy to use, no loose components.
It is a transom with a two board integral telescopic extension especially useful on contracts requiring cladding or second fixes.
Can be used as a board bearer only i.e. tube and extension without ledger fixings.
Extension and retraction of telescopic arm and boards is both rapid and safe. All operations carried out from safety of existing platform deck.
Significant time and labour saving compared with hop up brackets.
Adds rigidity to scaffold, bracing is reduced facilitating clear walkway access. Strong and robust construction.
Scaffold spanner only required for extension adjustment, and locking.
Can be specified to suit system scaffolds as well as tube and fitting applications with a choice of platform widths.
5 board plus 2 (extension) is standard
Technical Information
Platform loading complies with load Class 6, this applies to main platform and cantilever section (reference EN 12811-1 Table 3)
Ledger bracing is not required at working level providing system is in accordance with TG20:05 Section 10.2
Adequacy of any tie system is the responsibility of the contractor.
It is the responsibility of the contractor to ensure adequacy of ledgers to transfer loads from the Lynx Transom to the standards.
It may be necessary to apply extra bracing due to adverse conditions, as in any scaffolding system.
Facade bracing is required as normal.
The product and its use refer to TG20:05 EN12810-1 and EN12811-1, to which all scaffolding usage should comply.
Please refer to user guidance notes sheet prior to using the product.
IMPORTANT
Three board extension transom is Load Class 1 (Ref EN12811-1 T 3) Load Class 6 applies to 1/2 board extension only
