Acrow props, also known as adjustable steel props, are versatile temporary support structures commonly used in construction to provide vertical support for formwork, beams, floor slabs, and other structures. These props come in a variety of sizes to suit different construction requirements. Here is an overview of typical Acrow prop dimensions:

1. Acro props sizes and load capacity

     The load capacity of Acrow props varies depending on their length range and size. Generally speaking, as the length of a post increases, its load-bearing capacity also increases to accommodate the additional height and support requirements.

Size 0 Acrow Props:

Length range: Approximately 1.04 m (3 ft 5 in) to 1.83 m (6 ft).

Load Capacity: Typically suitable for light-duty applications, supporting loads up to approximately 20 kN or 2 metric tons.

Size 1 Acrow Props:

Length range: Approximately 1.75 m (5 ft 9 in) to 3.12 m (10 ft 3 in).

Load Capacity: Suitable for medium-duty applications, with load capacities ranging from approximately 30 kN to 35 kN.

Size 2 Acrow Props:

Length range: Approximately 1.98 m (6 ft 6 in) to 3.35 m (11 ft).

Load Capacity: Suitable for medium to heavy-duty applications, with load capacities ranging from approximately 35 kN to 40 kN.

Size 3 Acrow Props:

Length range: approximately 2.59 m (8 ft 6 in) to 3.96 m (13 ft).

Load Capacity: Designed for heavy-duty applications, supporting loads of approximately 40 kN to 45 kN.

Size 4 Acrow Props:

Length Range: Approximately 3.20 meters (10 feet 6 inches) to 4.88 meters (16 feet).

Load Capacity: Designed for heavy-duty applications, with load capacities ranging from approximately 45 kN to 50 kN.

Size 5 Acrow Props:

Length Range: Approximately 4.27 meters (14 feet) to 6.10 meters (20 feet).

Load Capacity: Intended for heavy-duty applications requiring high load-bearing capacity, with load capacities ranging from approximately 55 kN to 60 kN.

( Remark:

It is worth noting that the data listed above and the load capacity of the product are only approximate values. Different manufacturers, product materials, production processes, etc. will produce different results. Please consult the supplier when purchasing to ensure the safety of the project and workers! )

2. Diameter and thickness:

     The diameter of Acrow props is usually between 48mm and 60mm, and the thickness is generally 1.8mm/2.0mm/2.2mm/2.5mm or 3.0mm. Please choose the diameter and thickness of the acrow propr according to your specific project requirements. The larger the diameter, the thicker the thickness, which means the more expensive it is.

3. Material:

     Acrow props are usually made of high-strength steel, such as Q235, and Q345. Different grades of steel have different durability and load-bearing capabilities. In most cases, to extend the service life of the props, the props will also be surface-treated. For example, powder coating or galvanizing coating can be used to prevent props from corrosion.

4. How to use:

     The choice of Acrow prop size depends on factors such as the height of the structure being supported, load-bearing requirements and the specific application. If you don't understand these, please consult us and we will provide you with a customized solution.

In conclusion:

     Acrow props are available in a variety of sizes to meet a variety of construction needs, from small residential projects to large commercial and industrial applications. By selecting Acrow props of appropriate size and load capacity, the construction environment and worker safety can be maintained.
