Scaffoldmart's 7 ft X 19.25 inExtreme DutyAluminum Plywood Walkboard
1-15 $74.99
Free shipping is limited to the continental USA
ALSO AVAILABLE: Scaffoldmart's 10 ft X 19.25 in Extreme Duty Aluminum Plywood Walkboard $115.99 (We now manufacture here in Greenville North Carolina a 10 ft alum/ply board. Board is 50lbs/sq/ft rated with a 4 to 1 safety factor. All other features, listed below, are the same as our incredible 7 ft board. The only difference is our 10 ft board has an additional
aluminum rib for support.)
Our 7 ft aluminum plywood walkboard has just received lab test results and the results are everything we'd hoped for. Collapse occurs at 11,000 lbs. Yes that's 11,000 lbs of load evenly distributed in 5 places across this walkboard. This yields a load rating of 250 lbs/sq ft with a safety margin of 4 to 1 per OSHA guidelines. All other competitive boards to our knowledge are rated at 75 lbs/sq ft. This means our board is 3.3 times stronger than any other board on the market. 330% stronger from laboratory testing with actual results posted at the below link with photographs. We like to be more conservative with our ratings than OSHA so we are going to rate our board at 125 lbs/sq ft which yields a safety factor of 8 to 1. Twice that of the government standard. 66% stronger than any other board with a safety margin twice that of any other board. With more to spare.........which gives the ultimate in piece of mind concerning safety. Why purchase a lesser board that's 3 times weaker for more money? The safest board on the market in the U.S., sold to you direct. No middleman. No distributor hassle. No dealer markup. No sales tax (out of NC). The nicest board at the best pricing in America delivered directly to your door...Fast. How else would you want to do business? In the design stage for over a year we now are finally producing a walkboard that is second to none. We are extremely proud of our board. Being well acquainted with the rental and contractor business we needed a board that would stand up to extreme abuse, at a price that is simply stated.......... lower. We took all the current alum/ply boards on the market and corrected the defects or problem areas to produce what we truly believe to be a board that is the best on the market. 6061 T6 alloy throughout. Hooks are reinforced in the shoulder to sport the largest shoulder in the industry. They are one piece, not a two-piece clamped together with rivets, and another rivet holding two thin pieces of aluminum together! Our one piece yields a vastly stronger hook. Engineered and built without regard to cost........built with only strength in mind. Our hook is over 1 inch thick. In addition it is actually less weight than the beginning weight of a two-piece design as no aluminum is machined off the hook and throw away. We couldn't understand why some manufacturers would produce a board where they actually pay for aluminum then machine it away. This means they pay for the aluminum and then you don't get it in the board. But you pay for it. Regarding the shoulder area, it certainly costs a lot more to add extra aluminum but we wanted a hook that could take a direct shot from dropping a board and not bend or dent so as to be instantly out of service. The hook is also elongated at the tip for better holding ability. Our unique wind latch utilizing a common nail available anywhere is built in to the hook instead of the flimsy latch systems almost all competitive products possess. If latch systems take a blow, most times they're useless and have to be replaced. Of course this nonessential item seldom is ever replaced. How about never gets replaced is more probable. We use Hi Grade bolts and nuts with giant oversize 3/8 carriage bolts securing the hooks to the I beam. Some competitors use 3/16th screws where we use 5/16 screws. Our screws look over twice as large as theirs. Compare below our rib screw vs a competitors screw. Which do you want to stand on high in the air? Us too..........our board of course. Main I beams are .092 as opposed to some at .064. Our plywood uses waterproof glue...No other manufacturer to our knowledge spends over $1 more to have a glue this good. Width is a true 1/2 inch. This means we don't have to resort to such band aids as sealing the outer edge of the plywood after we have used an inferior or cheaper interior grade glue to help prevent the edge from unraveling.The 7ft long edge of the plywood is encased in aluminum for complete protection. Replacement of hooks or plywood in simply a matter of unbolting a hook and installing a new one. Plywood replacement is even easier. Just unscrew three screws and replace the plywood in a few minutes. Slide it right out and slide another right in. This forethought concerning serviceability protects your investment. Compare us to any board anywhere. We think you will agree..........stronger, safer, waterproof glue, the strongest hooks, all sold direct which means the best for the very best value anywhere. Try and find a better deal. You can't. There isn't one.
