ABOUT THE DIN EN 1065 HEAVY DUTY PROPS
CONTUBE DIN EN 1065 props are heavy duty props. Designed to bear heavy loads - more than 30kN - they are at the core of CONTUBE production，they fully comply with the UNI EN 1065:1999 European standard.
This standard set the toughest requirements worldwide as regards materials, design requirements and protection measures against corrosion.
The handle of the prop always features a marking bearing the following:
The standard subject of compliance;
Year of manufacture;
Manufacturer Identification Code (C stands for CONTUBE).
DIN EN 1065 heavy duty props come in the following versions:
Coated;
Electrolytically galvanized;
Hot dip galvanized.
This type of prop can be customised using branded stickers upon request.
These products are compatible with most accessories of other formworks and floors.
DIN EN 1065 Props: Three Models by Capacity
DIN EN 1065 class B PROPS LOADS TABLE
We manufacture three different models of the DIN EN 1065 class B props (B 30, B 35, B 40).
These are classified according to maximum extension (this model is capable of covering extensions between 1.82 m and 4.00 m) and capacity (higher with closed configuration).
Below are the technical features of each one of them.
DIN EN 1065 class D props loads table
We manufacture eight different models of DIN EN 1065 class D props (D25 ECO, D30 ECO, D35 ECO, D30, D35, D40, D45, D55). In some sizes, these products also come in the “eco” version, available at a lower price, but still capable of maintaining the guaranteed 20kn capacity at the maximum extensions.
The eight models are classified according to the maximum extension (comprised between 1.80 m and 5.50 m) and capacity.
Below are the technical features of each one of them.
DIN EN 1065 class E props loads table
Below are the features of CONTUBE “DIN EN 1065” EURO prop:
Variously shaped plates depending on the class of the prop, so as to make it immediately recognisable visually;
Forged steel adjustment ring nut with two supplementary holes, suitable for millimetric adjustment;
Hook bevelled at the ends: easier to insert into the holes thanks to the ergonomic shape;
Anti-shearing system: the greater length of the inner pipe with respect to the outer one enables guaranteeing an at least 10 cm difference between the two so as to prevent injury;
Outer threading obtained by means of rolling-forming, hence guaranteeing the wholeness of the material without removing any material;
Inner holes obtained using machines capable of perfectly machining them or by means of a milling system which obtains turnings on the surface of the pipe: both ways enable guaranteeing the complete absence of burrs near the holes;
Inner pipe anti-slip-off system, so as to prevent the pipe from inadvertently slipping off thus guaranteeing wholeness and safety when laying down and displacing at the worksite;
Three types of surface protections, obtained through the process of:dip coating; passivated electrolytic galvanising (tropicalisation), with guaranteed minimum thickness of 10 microns;
Hot-dip galvanization, with guaranteed minimum thickness of 50 microns;
Upon request: sticker customised with customer's logo, bearing information on capacity and maximum extension;
Quick release system, an accessory that guarantees release of the prop under the load by just hitting with the hammer to quicken and simplify the release procedure as well as reduce the operator's effort;
Tripod stand capable of supporting the prop when laying on site and when laying the floor;
Three different types of fork for supporting the floor, depending on the manufacturer’s needs:head stop fork (simple), 4-way head, fork referred to as "drop head".
Beware: the capacities indicated in the table always refer to the capacity of the single post shore.
Higher capacities can be achieved by binding, gate-like systems or pipe-coupling systems.
The gate-like system is a temporary structure suitable for creating a loading tower.
Binding the props in fours enables maximising the capacity.
The pipe-coupling system provides for a pipe above and beneath with couplings; it is the same figure of the gate, which is more economic though less quick. (E 30, E 35, E 40).
