Concrete Pump Outrigger Pads

A: Pad under the concrete pump leg to expand the contact area, disperse the pressure, prevent the pump truck from tilting or collapsing due to uneven or soft ground, and improve the stability of operation.

A: Conventional sizes are 1000×500×50mm, 1320×330×100mm, etc., and special needs can be customized. The load-bearing needs to be selected according to the characteristics of the material, and the ultra-high polyethylene pad can bear a large weight.

A: Make sure the ground is flat and firm, avoid using it on slopes or soft soil, and stack multiple pads if necessary.

A: The center of the pad should be aligned with the outrigger, and multiple pads should be evenly distributed; during operation, make sure that the pad fully supports the outrigger to prevent sliding.

A: Ultra-high polyethylene pads are corrosion-resistant and waterproof, suitable for harsh environments; wooden pads are prone to water absorption and deformation, and long-term moisture should be avoided.

A: Ultra-high polyethylene pads can be recycled and reused to reduce wood consumption; wooden pads are prone to pollution after being discarded.

A: When there are surface cracks, deformation, obvious thinning (thickness reduction of more than 30%), abnormal noise or burrs, they should be replaced immediately.

A: Avoid sun and rain, store in a dry and ventilated place; ultra-high polyethylene pads can be stacked, and wooden pads need to be protected from insects.

A: Use multiple layers of pads to stack, or choose larger pads, and use steel plates to strengthen support when necessary.

A: Outrigger pads are designed specifically for pump trucks, with better wear resistance, pressure resistance and stability, and are suitable for professional scenarios.

A: Load-bearing capacity, material weather resistance, size adaptability, and whether it can be recycled.

A: For short-term use, wood can be selected (low cost but frequent replacement); for long-term or professional scenarios, ultra-high polyethylene is recommended (long life and less maintenance).

A: Avoid deformation caused by continuous heavy pressure; turn the pad regularly to make the force uniform and extend the life.

A: The pads slide and cause the pump truck to tilt and the ground to sink, causing accidents.

A: Different countries/regions have different standards, and generally require the pads to have a pressure strength ≥ 1.5 times the weight of the pump truck.

A: Pump truck model, working environment (such as chemical plants need corrosion resistance), and special size requirements.

A: It can be rinsed with a high-pressure water gun, and avoid using corrosive detergents; wooden pads need to be dried before storage.

A: Yes. Choose anti-slip materials or add anti-slip patterns on the surface of the pad to ensure stable support.

A: Wood: Easy to process but susceptible to moisture and corrosion, suitable for short-term or dry environment.
Steel: Strong load-bearing and corrosion-resistant, but heavy and costly.
Ultra-high polyethylene: Light, wear-resistant, and pressure-resistant, suitable for frequent movement or complex environments.
Selection basis: Pump truck weight, working environment (such as mud requires a larger size), budget.

A: Provide stable support to prevent the pump truck from tilting due to load changes or arm shaking, and speed up operation efficiency.
