Paired tubular X-braces selected by member length and frame-lock geometry
We manufacture paired tubular cross braces for frame scaffolds. Each complete X-brace combines two crossing tubes, a central pivot and flattened connection ends. Our catalog lists 21 × 1.4 mm tubing in four brace-length references, supplied in counted model lots with the end-hole and frame-lock detail retained together.
| Assembly | Two tubular arms with a center pivot |
|---|---|
| Ends | Flattened connection tabs with the selected pin-hole detail |
| Frame match | Horizontal frame separation and vertical lock spacing |
| Member dimensions | Listed brace length plus finished hole-center datums |
| Finish | Selected painted, pre-galvanized or galvanized component route |
| Quantity | Complete paired-brace assemblies by model |
Four dedicated catalog rows use 21 mm outside-diameter tubing and 1.4 mm wall. The listed brace reference and complete paired-assembly mass are kept together.
| Tube OD (mm) | Tube wall (mm) | Listed brace length (mm) | Catalog assembly mass (kg) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 21 | 1.4 | 1,363 | 1.90 |
| 21 | 1.4 | 1,724 | 2.35 |
| 21 | 1.4 | 1,928 | 2.67 |
| 21 | 1.4 | 2,198 | 3.00 |

First-party frame cross-brace catalog references. The selected drawing states the finished end-hole and center-pivot geometry; the receiving frame detail sets the mating lock positions. Listed mass is a component quantity reference for the paired assembly.
A long bay with closely spaced locks differs from a shorter bay with widely spaced locks. The assembly reference therefore keeps horizontal and vertical spacing together, alongside the measured diagonal and its end details.
The hole, tab thickness and flattened-end shape seat on the specified frame pin and retention mechanism. Those details establish the mating connection for the complete brace, including the finished coating at the contact surfaces.
Access and working scaffolds are designed to EN 12811-1, which sets the performance requirements a brace serves within an erected configuration. Prefabricated facade systems carry the additional particulars of EN 12810-1 and EN 12810-2. The adopted standard and erection drawing select the brace.
Both tubes retain their own end-hole locations. Checking the four end connections together relates the paired brace to the intended frame positions and opening geometry.
The center joint connects the two arms and allows the assembly to open for its designed bay. Its position, clearance and retained pin or rivet follow the paired-brace drawing.
The transition from round tube to flattened tab carries the specified end profile. Hole edges, tab flatness and finish are checked at that connection detail before the assemblies are grouped for packing.
An existing brace and the frame’s lock positions establish a useful matching reference. We retain that model identity with the complete paired assembly, so different end patterns remain separate order items.
A frame takeoff and a brace takeoff have their own piece counts. Complete X-braces are grouped by model; joining pins, platforms and base components retain separate entries where the order includes them.
Listed member length, end-hole positions and the pivot datum are checked against the assembly drawing. The four ends retain their intended relationship in the opened configuration.
A frame-lock reference checks the selected tab and hole configuration. The finished surface and required retention clearance are included in that connection fit.
Each model’s paired assemblies are counted together. The record and packing identification distinguish complete X-braces from loose arms or other scaffold components.
Our offer lists each brace model, finish and number of complete paired assemblies. The center joint and included end configuration stay with that component line.
The paired braces are grouped compactly with their connection tabs protected from damaging restraint contact. Bundles retain the selected model and piece count.
Different lengths or mating details have separate groups. The packing list links those groups to the agreed frame-family reference and the order’s shipment terms.
One complete paired X-brace contains two crossing tubes connected at their center pivot. The quotation uses complete assembly pieces as its quantity unit.
The folded assembly has its own handling envelope. Open-bay geometry is identified by horizontal frame separation, vertical lock spacing and the member’s finished end-hole positions.
Frame height helps identify the family. The replacement also retains the actual lock positions, end-hole detail and intended frame separation, which establish the paired brace’s connection geometry.
Provide the retained frame-lock detail and the required end-hole positions. The revised assembly drawing identifies the chosen tabs and hole centers together with its member and pivot dimensions.
A sample can be specified for the identified frame and brace references. The agreed checks cover the opened connection geometry, end seating, pivot movement and finish before the production lot is released.
Where the released layout shows one complete X-brace on the front face and one on the rear, that bay uses two paired assemblies. Apply the same face-by-face count to the actual bracing plan; each paired assembly remains one purchase item.
