LVL SCAFFOLD PLANK is an engineered wood product designed specifically for use as a scaffold plank. It is created by permanently bonding individual veneers together, using adhesive, heat and pressure, with the grain in each layer of veneer running parallel to the grain in the next.The unique process by which it is manufactured disperses the inherent defects found in solid sawn lumber. Natural characteristics such as knots and wane are rearranged to maximize strength and minimize warping and split.The structural reliability makes it the perfect solution for a safe, lightweight scaffold plank. Each plank is made from many layers of thin veneer, which increases the uniformity and strength of the product.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

• Longer lengths-fewer trip hazards and greater spans

• No metal straps required.

• Low maintenance.

PRODUCTION

It is produced from 2.5mm-3.6mm thick, rotary peeled softwood veneer layers of Radiate pine, glued together using a WBP glue to form a continuous 2.5 meter wide billet, with thicknesses ranging from 27 to 75mm and a maximum length of 11.9 meters. The billet is then hot pressed and cut to size to make beams, planks, posts or panels, or processed into a variety of other products.
