Heavy-Duty Steel Scaffolding Tube – High-Strength Construction Support Pipe
The high-strength steel scaffolding tube is the core material in contemporary construction, widely used not only for traditional frame scaffolding but also as the fundamental component for advanced systems like Ringlock and Cuplock. Compared to traditional bamboo, steel tubes offer superior safety, durability, and stability, meeting strict national material standards. Modern scaffolding commonly employs 48.3mm outer diameter tubes with thicknesses ranging from 1.8–4.75mm, produced from high-carbon steel via Electrical Resistance Welding. Our scaffolding tubes feature premium zinc coating up to 280g for enhanced corrosion resistance, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments.

Advantages
1.Safe and compliant, with excellent quality
Material reliability: Manufactured strictly using high-quality steels such as Q195, Q235, and Q355, fully meeting the requirements of international standards like EN, BS, and JIS.
High-quality craftsmanship: The standard model has an outer diameter of 48.3mm. The thickness of the pipe wall can be selected within a wide range (1.8mm - 4.75mm). It is manufactured using high-frequency resistance welding technology, ensuring a strong weld seam, a straight pipe body, a smooth surface, and no cracks or bends.
High corrosion resistance: Offers industry-leading ultra-high zinc coating protection (with a zinc layer coverage of up to 280g/㎡, far exceeding the common industry standard of 210g/㎡), significantly extending the service life in harsh environments and demonstrating outstanding rust resistance.
2. High Strength and Durability
Compared with traditional bamboo scaffolding, our steel pipes fundamentally address the safety concerns such as insufficient strength, easy aging and flammability. They can provide extremely stable and long-lasting support for high-rise, large-scale and complex modern construction projects, and are the best choice for ensuring construction safety and efficiency.
3. Widely applicable and highly compatible
As a fundamental component, our steel pipes not only form the core of the traditional scaffolding system, but also, through meticulous processing, can perfectly fit various advanced modular systems such as the disc coupling scaffolding system and the fastening-type scaffolding system, demonstrating outstanding versatility and scalability.
Its outstanding performance also makes it suitable for industrial fields such as shipbuilding, marine engineering, and pipeline structures, where strict material requirements are imposed.
4. Supply Chain and Service Assurance
Taking advantage of Tianjin's location as a major steel and port base in China, we can ensure stable and efficient production as well as global logistics distribution, meeting the urgent demands and long-term cooperation needs of different markets.

Basic information
1. Q: What is scaffolding steel pipe/tube, and what is it used for?
A: Scaffolding steel pipe (also commonly called scaffolding tube) is a fundamental material used to construct safe and stable working platforms in various building and engineering projects. Beyond traditional scaffolding, it is further processed to create other scaffolding systems, such as Ringlock and Cuplock. It is also widely used in shipbuilding, structural engineering, offshore platforms, and pipeline industries.
2. Q: Why is steel pipe now preferred over bamboo for scaffolding?
A: Compared to bamboo scaffolding, steel pipe provides superior strength, durability, and safety. Bamboo is now primarily limited to small-scale or rural structures due to its lack of stability and shorter lifespan. In modern construction, steel pipe scaffolding meets the demands for worker safety, structural stability, and long-term usability, making it the industry standard.
3. Q: What are the typical specifications of scaffolding steel pipe in modern construction?
A: The most common specification is an outer diameter of 48.3mm, with a wall thickness ranging from 1.8mm to 4.75mm. These pipes are typically made from high-carbon steel using the Electric Resistance Welding (ERW) process and are used in tube-and-coupler scaffolding systems with matching clamps and fittings.
4. Q: What steel grades are available, and which standards do you comply with?
A: Our scaffolding pipes are available in various steel grades, including Q195, Q235, Q355, and S235, to meet different international standards such as EN (European), BS (British), and JIS (Japanese). Material selection depends on specific project requirements and regional regulations.
5. Q: What makes your scaffolding tube more corrosion-resistant than others?
A: We apply a high-performance zinc coating of up to 280g/㎡, exceeding the common industry level of around 210g/㎡. This superior galvanization significantly enhances rust resistance and extends the service life of the scaffolding, even in harsh or humid environments.
