Scaffold Components – Adjustable Jacking Castor for Self-Lock Scaffold

The Jacking Castor for Self-Lock Scaffold is a versatile scaffolding component designed to provide both mobility and adjustable levelling for compatible mobile scaffold towers. The adjustable stem allows the height of the scaffold tower to be fine-tuned, making it particularly useful when working on surfaces where accurate levelling is required.

The JACKING_CASTOR features a 200mm polyurethane wheel, a 35mm stem and a steel construction. It is designed as an optional component for compatible self-lock scaffolding systems and can assist with both horizontal movement and vertical adjustment.

Key Features & Benefits

• Adjustable jacking castor for compatible self-lock scaffolding.
• 200mm polyurethane wheel with a cast-iron construction.
• 35mm stem for compatible scaffold systems.
• Manufactured from steel.
• Adjustable design helps with scaffold tower levelling.
• Provides mobility for compatible mobile scaffold towers.
• Suitable for interior and exterior access applications.
• Ideal for construction, maintenance, painting, plastering, electrical work and other access trades.
• Available as an optional scaffold component or replacement part.

Adjustable Scaffold Mobility

Unlike a standard fixed-height castor, a jacking castor features an adjustable stem, allowing the scaffold tower level to be adjusted. This makes it particularly useful when mobile scaffolding needs to be positioned on surfaces that are not perfectly level.

The combination of mobility and adjustment makes the jacking castor a practical component for mobile self-lock scaffold towers where the scaffold needs to be moved and accurately positioned.

200mm Polyurethane Wheel

The 200mm polyurethane wheel provides a robust wheel option for compatible mobile scaffolding applications. Polyurethane is commonly used for industrial castors where durability and smooth movement are required.

The castor incorporates a 200mm cast-iron polyurethane wheel and a 35mm stem for connection to compatible scaffolding.

Suitable Applications

The Jacking Castor is suitable for compatible scaffolding systems used for:

• Building construction
• General maintenance
• Painting
• Plastering
• Plumbing
• Electrical installations
• Industrial maintenance
• Renovation projects
• Commercial construction
• Mobile scaffold towers
• Elevated access applications

It is suitable for a variety of interior and exterior access trades.

Jacking Castor vs Standard Scaffold Castor

A standard scaffold castor primarily provides mobility, while a jacking castor combines mobility with height adjustment. The adjustable stem allows the scaffold tower to be levelled after positioning.

This makes the jacking castor particularly useful where a mobile scaffold needs to be moved between locations and then accurately positioned for work.

Complete Your Self-Lock Scaffold System

The Jacking Castor can form part of a complete self-lock scaffolding system alongside compatible components such as:

• Steel self-lock scaffold frames
• Cross braces
• Tie bars
• Steel decks
• Trapdoor platforms
• Trap doors
• Access ladders
• Toe-board sets
• Knee braces
• Base jacks
• Guard rails

Selecting compatible components is important to ensure that the complete scaffold system is correctly configured.

Important Safety Information

The Jacking Castor should only be used with a compatible scaffolding system and installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions and applicable workplace safety requirements.

The castor’s specifications should not be interpreted as the allowable working load of the complete scaffold tower. The complete structure, including frames, braces, platforms, castors and locking mechanisms, must be suitable for the intended application.

Before working from a mobile scaffold, ensure the tower is correctly assembled, levelled, secured and inspected by a suitably competent person. Follow the manufacturer’s requirements for moving and locking the scaffold.
