Feature | Ringlock Scaffolding | Cuplock Scaffolding |
Connection Point | Rosette (ring) with eight connection slots | Two cups (fixed bottom, sliding top) with four connection points |
Versatility | Highly versatile; excels with complex, curved, or irregular structures. | Suited for linear and straightforward structures like building facades. |
Assembly Speed | Generally faster due to the simple wedge-locking mechanism. | Quick, but can be slower than Ringlock due to the need for hammering the top cup. |
Bracing | Allows for more extensive and multi-directional bracing. | Limited to four directions, which may affect stability on very complex projects. |
Applications | High-rise buildings, bridges, large industrial plants, stadiums. | Residential and commercial buildings, straight facades, and general construction. |
Load Bearing | Excellent load-bearing capacity and structural integrity. | High load-bearing capacity, particularly for heavy-duty applications. |
