Prop Sleeve nut

A Prop Sleeve Nut is a key component in adjustable scaffolding props, which are used to support formwork during construction, particularly for holding up slabs, beams, and other overhead structures. The sleeve nut works as part of the adjustment mechanism of the prop, allowing workers to adjust the height of the prop and secure it at the desired level.

Key Features of Prop Sleeve Nuts:

Height Adjustment: The sleeve nut allows the scaffold prop to be raised or lowered to the required height. The nut moves up and down the threaded portion of the prop’s inner tube to adjust the length of the prop.

Locking Mechanism: Once the desired height is reached, the sleeve nut is tightened to lock the position, ensuring that the prop is stable and secure under load.

Material: Typically made from high-strength cast iron or forged steel, the sleeve nut is designed to withstand the heavy loads typical in construction projects, such as supporting concrete slabs or beams.

Durability: Prop sleeve nuts are often galvanized or treated with anti-corrosion coatings to ensure longevity and durability in various weather conditions.
