Adjustable Steel Shoring Props
Adjustable Steel Shoring Props are temporary support devices widely used in construction and formwork applications. Designed to support concrete slabs, beams, ceilings, and structural elements during construction, these props provide a safe and efficient load-bearing solution for residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects.
Manufactured from high-strength steel components, the props feature an adjustable telescopic design that allows precise height adjustment on-site. Their robust construction ensures stability under demanding working conditions while enabling quick installation and removal, helping improve construction efficiency and reduce labor costs.
Suitable for use with various formwork systems, steel shoring props are an essential component in modern concrete construction projects.
We specialize in the rapid manufacturing of a complete range of high-quality shoring props, catering to diverse construction needs. Our product line includes heavy-duty shoring props, telescopic shoring posts, and durable steel props, available in galvanized (hot-dip/electro-galvanized/pre-galvanized) or painted finishes. All our products are engineered to deliver maximum safety, superior load-bearing capacity, and long-lasting performance, making them ideal for various construction and foundation projects.

About Steel Props
Steel props are steel load-bearing components used in construction/foundation projects to bear vertical/horizontal loads and control structural deformation. They are reusable, made of Q235/Q345 steel, and mainly divided into two categories: Adjustable Independent Steel Props (for formwork) and Large-Scale Foundation Steel Props (steel pipe/H-beam).
1. Adjustable Independent Steel Props (Scaffolding/Formwork Internal Support)
- Structure: Composed of outer tube + inner threaded tube + top plate/flat plate + base + handle nut, with adjustable height.
- Common Specifications: Pipe diameter Φ48/Φ60/Φ63, length 2.2m - 4.0m.
- Function: Vertical support for formwork systems, replacing traditional wooden squares. It features quick leveling and strong load-bearing capacity (single prop can bear several tons).
- Types: Lightweight (for civil buildings), Heavy-duty (for bridges/large workshops), and Special Steel Props for Aluminum Formwork.
- Surface Treatment: Painting, hot-dip galvanizing, and plastic spraying for corrosion resistance.
2. Foundation/Structural Steel Props
- Section: Steel pipe supports (Φ609, Φ800, etc.), H-beam/combined section steel supports.
- Arrangement: Opposite support, angle support, cross support, diagonal support.
- Application: Deep foundation pit support, tunnel initial support, and lateral force resistance of high-rise buildings.
- Technology: Prestress can be applied to control foundation pit deformation.
Core Scaffolding Parts
Category | Main Parts | Function | Common Specifications |
Foundation Load-bearing | Standing Pole, Crossbar, Adjustable Base, Adjustable Top Plate (U-plate) | Form a load-bearing framework, transmit force to the ground, and fine-tune height | Standing Pole/Crossbar Φ48.3×3.6mm; Top Plate Stroke ≥300mm |
Connection & Fastening | Couplers (Right Angle/Rotary/Butt), Disk-Lock Nodes, Cup-Lock Nodes, Bolts | Fix all rods to ensure overall stability | Coupler material: Malleable Cast Iron; Bolt Torque: No damage at 65N・m |
Stability Enhancement | Diagonal Support, Scissor Support, Horizontal Diagonal Rod | Resist lateral force and wind load, prevent frame shaking | Angle: 45°-60°; Set every 3-4 bays |
Operational Safety | Steel Scaffold Plank, Toe Board, Guardrail, Safety Net | Provide operating platform, prevent falling and material dropping | Steel Plank Length: 2m/3m; Anti-slip Punching Design |
Key Part Details
- Couplers: The most versatile connectors. Right-angle couplers (cross-connect standing poles and crossbars), rotary couplers (connect diagonal rods), butt couplers (extend steel pipes).
- Disk-Lock Scaffold Parts: Standing poles with disks, crossbars/diagonal rods with lock head bolts. Features fast erection speed and high node stiffness.
- Scaffold Planks: Steel planks are the mainstream choice, with high strength, durability, and suitability for frequent turnover.
- Base/Top Plate: Adjustable base is used for leveling uneven ground; top plate supports formwork keel.
Selection & Quality Points
- Material: Main steel: Q235/Q345; Couplers comply with GB 15831 standard. Non-standard, rusted, or deformed parts are strictly prohibited.
- Compatibility: Pipe diameter and wall thickness must be uniform (e.g., Φ48.3mm system). Steel props must match the diameter of scaffolding to avoid node stress concentration.
- Surface Treatment: For damp construction sites, hot-dip galvanized steel props and parts are preferred, with a service life far superior to ordinary painted products.
- Inspection: Each batch must be accompanied by a certificate of conformity and material report. Key parts are sampled to test load-bearing capacity and torque.
Surface Treatment Options
- Hot-Dip Galvanizing: Suitable for heavy-duty steel props (e.g., 7660/7663 models). Galvanized layer ≥0.4mm, excellent corrosion resistance, not easy to rust.
- Electro-Galvanizing: Galvanized layer ≈0.1mm, poor corrosion resistance, easy to rust.
- Pre-Galvanizing: Optional for specific project needs.
- Paint Coating: Cost-effective, available in custom colors.
Special Customization
- 4860 Model: Cup-type design available, suitable for Chinese, Middle Eastern, and African markets.
- 4048/4856 Models: Only available in cup-type design.
Application Scenarios
- Formwork Engineering: Mainly uses adjustable independent steel props, combined with cup-lock/disk-lock scaffolding for full-house support.
- Exterior Wall/High-Altitude Operations: Mainly uses coupler-type/disk-lock scaffolding, emphasizing safety protection.
- Deep Foundation Pits: Large-scale steel pipe/H-beam steel props (often prestressed) are used to form a foundation pit support system.
