Advantages of plastic outrigger pads
UHMWPE crane foot pads are widely used because they are inexpensive and easy to purchase. There are many reasons why UHMW crane outrigger pads are superior to leg pads made of hardwood.
Durability
The strength of UHMW comes from its long chains of high-quality molecules. It has the greatest impact strength of any thermoplastic currently manufactured. Our UHMW crane outrigger pads are designed to bend slightly on rough terrain to prevent them from breaking under pressure. The wood is easy to crack and chip, and also swell and warp due to moisture absorption, which will weaken the strength of the cushion.
Although wood is a cheaper material, UHMW has a much longer lifespan. There is no need to replace the crane foot pads regularly, just a set of synthetic pads can extend the service life.
Safety first
When you perform critical lifting operations, the crane foot pads help protect your team members and equipment. Henan Okay Plastic Industry Co., Ltd. has designed outrigger pads of various sizes and configurations, which can be used in conjunction with cranes, earth-moving equipment, concrete pump trucks, and railway service equipment.
