Outrigger Plates/ Pads
Polystone Confetti Grade Recycled UHMWPE
A sustainable and economical alternative that provides reliable strength and durability for everyday crane operations. Confetti grade plates are lightweight, corrosion-resistant and suited for general load distribution.
Ertalon/ Nylatron Nylon
A premium engineering plastic offering excellent mechanical strength and wear resistance. Nylon outrigger plates are ideal for applications requiring high load-bearing capacity, dimensional stability, and long service life under repeated use.
Both materials can be also used to manufacture stackable Dunnage Blocks, designed for ground levelling and height adjustment on uneven or sloped terrain, working alongside outrigger plates to ensure safe, stable footing.
| LOAD CAPACITY | OUTRIGGER FOOT CONTACT AREA | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 250 x 250mm | 400 x 400mm | Ø300mm | Ø400mm | |
| Polystone Confetti Recycled UHMWPE | 62.5 tonnes | 160 Tonnes | 70.6 Tonnes | 125 Tonnes |
| Ertalon/ Nylatron Nylon | 375 Tonnes | 960 Tonnes | 423 Tonnes | 750 Tonnes |
Safe working loads are per outrigger, based on the smallest contact area on flat, even ground. For application-specific calculations, contact Dotmar Engineering Plastics. Custom sizes available.
