Summary

While exact data for Quicklock-branded plan braces in the specified sizes is limited, guidance from Universal and other quicklock-style systems provides solid benchmarks:

1524 × 1524 Plan Brace: ~18–20 kg
1524 × 2134: ~20.5 kg
1524 × 3048: ~30–35 kg
2134 × 3048: ~35–40 kg
3048 × 3048: ~40–45 kg

All are heavy-duty tubular galvanised braces with end fittings designed for quick-lock scaffold frames, essential for lateral stability in rolling or freestanding towers.

Description

Plan Brace Overview

In quick-lock or cuplock-type scaffold systems, plan braces (also called cross braces) are essential for stabilizing horizontal spans—particularly on rolling towers and large platforms. They tie frames together laterally, improving rigidity and preventing sway during movement.

⚙️ Specifications Based on Universal Scaffold Catalog

According to a comparable Universal Scaffold guide (used in quick-lock/uplifted frames):

5′ × 7′ (1524 × 2134 mm) horizontal plan brace weighs approximately 20.5 kg

This provides a reference point for plan brace weight per bay size. For other bay sizes, weights typically increase with length:

A 5′ × 5′ (1524 × 1524 mm) plan brace would weigh slightly less—estimated 18–19 kg.
For 5′ × 10′ (1524 × 3048 mm) spans, expect approximately 30–35 kg.

Key Features of Quicklock Plan Braces

Galvanized tubular construction, built to match the frame’s 48 × 2–3 mm steel tubing.
Fitted with quick-lock coupler ends for fast, secure insertion into vertical frame tubes.
Designed for rolling towers, they impart lateral strength and ensure safe mobility.
Comply with international standards like EN 12811, EN 74, AS/NZS 1576 (common in similar quick-lock systems)
Ideal for freestanding heights up to 6 m, where cross-bracing is critical.

🏗️ Why It Matters

Structural Rigidity: Plan braces prevent frame swaying when wheels move or during use.
Safe Mobility: Required in mobile towers to meet local safety codes.
Performance Scaling: Brace weight and size increase with span, proportionally enhancing stability.
