20' Plank
20' x 14" Aluminum Walk Planks (Stages) are designed for use with pump jack systems, ladder jacks, or swing stages. These heavy-duty planks provide a wide, stable walking surface for siding, painting, and masonry work, allowing for a 20-foot span between supports.
Specifications & Utility
- Dimensions: A full 20-foot length paired with a 14-inch width, providing more foot room and stability than standard narrow planks.
- Material: Constructed from high-strength structural aluminum for maximum rigidity and weather resistance.
- Twist-Proof Design: Utilizes a box-section side rail and heavy-duty rungs to prevent the plank from twisting or bowing under a load.
- Slip-Resistant Surface: Features a raised, serrated decking pattern to ensure secure footing and proper drainage in wet conditions.
Core Features
- Load Rating: Typically rated for two-person (500 lbs) capacity or three-person (750 lbs) capacity, depending on the specific model and span.
- End Caps: Reinforced molded plastic or aluminum end caps protect the plank rails from damage and prevent debris from entering the box sections.
- Nesting Capability: Designed to be easily stacked for transport and storage on equipment trailers.
- Optional Guardrail Systems: Features integrated sockets for mounting guardrail posts and toeboards, which are necessary when working at heights over 10 feet.
Compatibility
- Pump Jacks: Fits perfectly within the bracket arms of aluminum pump jack systems.
- Ladder Jacks: Designed to seat securely on heavy-duty ladder jack brackets for quick, low-profile scaffolding setups.
- Safety Straps: Often used with plank tiedowns or straps to ensure the stage remains centered on its supports during use.
