Hardware goods of use; track wheels and ledger blade scaffolding



There are innumerable hardware devices and tools that come to our use every day in industrial as well as in normal everyday purposes. The ledger blade scaffolding and the track wheels are two such important hardware devices that find use in a number of important purposes and hence have to be manufactured and designed with great care and precision.

Scaffolding is the term that is used to refer to a temporary structure that supports people and materials in the construction and repair of buildings and other large structures. Scaffolds are usually a modular system of metal pipes or metal tubes, even though the scaffolds can also be made out of other materials too. One such commonly used material for making scaffolds is bamboo that is used frequently in some Asian countries like Hong Kong. The purpose of a working scaffold is to provide a safe place of work with safe access suitable for the works being done.

This purpose of the scaffolds is to be fulfilled irrespective of the material of which the scaffold is made. The basic materials of scaffoldings are tubes, couplers and boards. Tubes are made of either steel or aluminum, even though the composite scaffolding uses filament wound tubes of glass fiber in a nylon or polyester matrix. And if they are made of steel, then they are either ‘black’ or galvanized. The scaffolding tubes come in a variety of lengths. Among the key elements of the scaffolds are the standards, ledgers and transoms. The standard scaffolds are also called as uprights. These are the vertical tubes that transfer the entire mass of the structure to the ground where they rest on a square base plate to spread the load. The base plate often has a shank at its centre to hold the vertical tubes and is at times, pinned to a sole board. The ledger blade scaffoldings are another important element of the scaffolds. The ledger blade scaffolding is horizontal tubes which connect between the standards. The ledger blade scaffolding is only rarely independent structure.

The widespread use of the ledger blade scaffolding systems, along with the profound importance that they have earned in the modern applications of today like the civil engineering projects and temporary structures, have led to the definition of a series of standards that cover a vast number of specific issues that involve ledger blade scaffolding. Another very important hardware device are the track wheels that come available in different materials like iron track wheels or steel track wheels or stainless steel track wheels. The material and the specification of the track wheels depend on the track over which the track wheels have to move. The track wheels roll over steel tracks and because of which the pushing or the pulling force required is much less and reduces labor fatigue. The floor surface does not get damaged at any time. These track wheels and ledger blade scaffolding, because of their superior quality material, serve their purpose quite efficiently.
