Product Description

Scaffold Adjustable Fork Head Jacks - Four Way Jack

The scaffold adjustable forkhead jack is a vital component in construction, also known as four-way jacks. These assemblies consist of four primary parts: the screw jack stem, jack nuts (handle), base plate, and four pieces of steel angle forks.

Mainly utilized in slab formwork and beam formwork concreting, it serves as a robust support component for formwork scaffolding. The height can be precisely adjusted by operating the jack nuts, which also assists in general scaffold leveling.

Hollow Type vs. Solid Type Adjustable Fork Head Jacks

Hollow Type: Made from tubular scaffolding, available in both seamless and welded tube varieties. These are the most common due to their lightweight nature combined with the ability to support heavy loads in slab and beam construction.

Solid Type: Crafted from solid steel round bars with stem diameters typically ranging from 30mm to 48mm. These are specialized components used for specific load requirements.

Surface Finishing & Durability

To ensure long-term anti-rust performance, these forkhead jacks are finished with either painting or galvanizing. While painted jacks offer a cost-effective solution, hot-dip galvanized finishes provide superior anti-corrosion protection for demanding environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main components of an adjustable fork head jack?
The jack consists of a screw jack stem, jack nuts (handle), a base plate, and four steel angle forks.
What is the primary use of a four-way fork head jack?
It is primarily used in slab and beam formwork to support the structure during concrete pouring and to assist in leveling the scaffolding.
Should I choose a hollow or solid type fork head jack?
Hollow types are more common and lighter for standard heavy-weight slab construction. Solid types are used for specific applications requiring solid steel bar stems.
Which surface finish provides the best rust protection?
Hot-dip galvanizing offers the best anti-corrosion and anti-rust protection compared to standard painted finishes.
Can these jacks be adjusted after installation?
Yes, the height can be adjusted by turning the jack nuts even when the scaffold is being positioned.
What scaffolding standards do your products conform to?
The products are manufactured to conform to international standards such as BS1139, EN74, EN39, EN10219, EN12811, and AS/NZS 1576.
