What is Alloy Scaffolding Beam？
Aluminum Beam Production Process
Aluminum beams are widely used in construction, scaffolding, and industrial applications due to their lightweight strength and corrosion resistance. At Superman Scaffold, we follow a strict and efficient production process to ensure every aluminum beam meets international standards and customer expectations.
Production Process Overview
Raw Material Selection – High-quality aluminum ingots are carefully selected to ensure purity and consistency.
Extrusion and Forming – The aluminum is heated and extruded through precision dies to achieve the desired beam profile.
Heat Treatment – Beams undergo controlled heat treatment to enhance their mechanical strength and durability.
Surface Finishing – Options such as anodizing, polishing, or powder coating provide excellent corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal.
Quality Inspection – Each beam is inspected for straightness, tolerance, and surface quality before packaging and delivery.
- Lightweight & Strong: Offers high load-bearing capacity with reduced weight.
- Corrosion Resistant: Ideal for outdoor and marine environments.
- Customizable Profiles: Available in various shapes, sizes, and finishes.
- Precision Manufacturing: Advanced extrusion and inspection ensure consistent quality.
- Environmentally Friendly: Aluminum is fully recyclable and energy-efficient in production.
Type of aluminum beam
Aluminum Lattice Beam
High grade aluminium beams for use with 48.3mm tube and fitting scaffolding. Without any compromise in performance, alloy beam offer significant savings on alternative materials. Considerably lighter than steel, alloy beams are faster and easier to erect, thereby saving construction time.
- Design enables easy connection with fittings to any scaffolding structure.
- Less than half the weight of a steel beam.
- 1.5 times stronger than a steel beam.
- Tested to and complies with European Standards.
- Connection by 4 bolt spigot system.
- Alloy beam also available in 1m, 2m, 3m, 4m and 6m lengths.
Length | Weight | Width |
2M | 8.5 | 450mm |
3M | 12.5 | 450mm |
4M | 16.5 | 450mm |
5M | 21.0 | 450mm |
6M | 22.5 | 450mm |
8M | 32.5 | 450mm |
Our Aluminium Scaffold Beams are lightweight, high performance, high quality and can be used in all types of scaffold system. Our alloy beams which are often referred to as lattice beams are lightweight and designed to have a low to mid-level load capacity. Commonly used for simple bridging and cantilever scaffolding solutions.
Our alloy beams has the smallest depth and are the lightest to handle of our alloy beams weighing approx. 5.0Kg/m, they can be connected to form longer spans using our beam connection spigots and quick release spring pins.
Fully compatible with regular outer diameter scaffolding tube and fittings along with other alloy beams.
