ADJUSTABLE FORK HEAD JACK BASE FORMWORK BEAM STELL PROP SYSTEM

U head jack bases, also called screw jack bases, are essential components in scaffolding systems. Their primary function is to provide a stable foundation for the scaffolding and allow for adjustments on uneven surfaces, ensuring the structure remains level and stable. They work in conjunction with the U-head, which holds the timber beams or steel formwork in place. 

• Stability and Leveling:

  U head jack bases are designed to be adjustable, allowing for height adjustments to compensate for uneven ground, according to the product description from Nord Technology(Tianjin) Limited Company. This ensures the entire scaffolding structure is level and stable. 

• Foundation for Scaffolding:

  They serve as the base or foundation for each scaffold bay, providing a solid platform for the uprights (standards) to be erected, as explained by LTM Corporation Pte Ltd.

• Load Distribution:

  By providing a level and stable base, the jack base helps distribute the load from the scaffolding structure to the ground effectively. 

• Working with U-heads:

  The U-head jack base is used in conjunction with adjustable U-heads, which are attached to the top of the uprights and hold the beams or formwork in place. 

• Used in Shuttering and Formwork:

  U head jack bases are commonly used in concrete shuttering and formwork construction, providing support and stability for the formwork system. 

• Various Types:

  Scaffolding base jacks come in various types, including adjustable base jacks, 6-ton heavy-duty jacks, and hollow types, to cater to different needs and load requirements.
