A Grouser Bar in scaffolding, also known as a grouser, grouser bar, squaring brace, or stabilizing safety bar, is a crucial component used to stabilize scaffold towers and ensure they remain square. This bar is essential for maintaining the structural integrity and safety of scaffolding systems, particularly in rolling towers.
The grouser bar is installed at the bottom of the frame scaffolding, just above the caster in rolling towers. It fits around a frame vertical tube (frame leg) and connects to the direct opposite or diagonal side, ensuring that the scaffold remains stable and square.
Grouser bars are designed to provide diagonal support, which is crucial for maintaining the square footprint of the scaffolding configuration. This support is essential for preventing racking and ensuring the stability of the scaffold tower, especially in high scaffold tower construction and rolling towers.
Grouser bars are typically made from steel Q235.
Out diameter of the bar is available in 35mm, 41.3mm and 42mm.
Surface finish: gooser bars are available in different finishes such as powder-coated in high-visibility yellow or galvanized. This ensures both visibility and durability on construction sites.
The bar is equipped with a drop forged slider towards the end that can be tightened and locked into place, preventing racking in tall towers and ensuring the structure remains secure and stable.
Types of Scaffold Goosers:
Horizontal Gooser: Used to connect two frame vertical legs or between two frames horizontally. Sizes range from 2′ to 10′ and are used to strengthen frame stability or protect the safety of scaffold decks and work platforms.
Diagonal Gooser: Secures the scaffold bay diagonally to ensure the scaffold frame stays square. Sizes include 7’x5′, 10’x5′, 7’x42″, and 10’x42″.
They are widely used in the US and Canada construction industry.
