Take a look at our scaffolding clamp products below:

Quick Lock Base Plate

As part of your scaffolding equipment, you will need a quick lock base plate. Our base plate has a quick lock feature for security and your peace of mind while you work on your scaffolding. Shop the quick lock base plate online for added stability for your construction projects. Enjoy the high quality construction - which ensures maximum longevity of your scaffolding!

Right Angle Clamp

Our right angle clamp, or RAC makes scaffold connections as secure as possible. In fact, it is constructed out of a high quality steel to ensure the longest possible lifetime - so you can use your scaffolding with ease for many years to come.

Contact Badger Ladder today for information about how to safely make secure scaffolding connections to ensure safety and compliance while working.

Rigid Beam Clamp

Another connecting part you'll need for your tube and clamp scaffolding is the rigid beam clamp. Also crafted from high quality steel, our rigid beam clamp should be used to connect scaffold tubes right to the steel beams (up to 3/4 inches thick). You can also use the rigid beam clamp for system scaffolding. The weight of the rigid beam clamp is approximately 4 pounds.

Swivel Clamp

Our SWC, or swivel clamp is designed from a high quality steel, ensuring the best quality product possible. This is a single unit design with a dual purpose to use primarily for bracing. This scaffolding clamp is beneficial to use for your tube and scaffolding clamps, since it allows you to connect tubes at any angle.

Tube and Clamp Scaffolding FAQs

Here are some common questions that we get about tube and clamp scaffolding:

How to build tube and clamp scaffolding?

Here are some steps to follow: first, draw out the structure with the correct dimensions and make sure all of the parts (right angle clamps, swivel clamps, rigid beam clamps, and quick lock base plates, etc.) are available. Next, plan the foundation and make sure that the ground beneath the scaffold is level to ensure everyone's safety. Next, build in the frames and the zones. Lastly, correctly set up the guardrails and access points. For best results and every builder's safety, ALWAYS follow assembly instructions. More information here about how to erect scaffolding.

What is tube and clamp scaffolding used for?

Tube and clamp scaffolding is highly versatile and can be used as either a supplemental scaffolding system or as its own standalone scaffold structure. As a result, it is great for congested construction areas since it can fit any shape, height, or width that you need it to. Simply purchase more clamps, base plates, etc. as needed to expand your configuration!

What are the sizes of tube and clamp scaffolding?

At Badger Ladder, we have several configuration sizes available for your tube and clamp scaffolding. These include: 4', 6', 8', 10', 13', and 16' in length. However, due to its versatility, you can customize and expand your scaffolding as needed. Purchase one or more of these lengths to accommodate whatever size of building project you have.

What is the difference between a system scaffold and a tube and coupler?

Two common types of scaffolding you're likely to find and compare are system scaffolding and tube and coupler scaffolding. Otherwise known as modular scaffolding, scaffold systems come pre-engineered as horizontal, vertical, or diagonal systems that interlock with each other. Tube and clamp scaffolding, by contrast, is a basic type of scaffold that consists of just steel/aluminum tubes, boards, and clamps. It's highly versatile, however a good amount of knowledge and skill is required to erect a tube and coupler scaffolding system.

For reference, here are OSHA's guidelines for tube and coupler scaffolds - erection and use.
