ENERPAC has released a new system of plastic cribbing blocks and wedges to optimise safety when stabilising heavy loads after lifting.
According to Enerpac, the plastic cribbing blocks are a more stable, longer-lasting and easily cleaned alternative to wooden blocks. They feature an aggressively patterned slip-resistant pyramid locking surface, said to increase stability in cribbing, chocking and shoring operations.
Enerpac claims its plastic cribbing blocks and wedges are suited for the energy, mining, maintenance, construction and infrastructure industries. The cribbing blocks are available in three sizes, while Enerpac offers its wedges in two sizes.
The stabilising blocks and wedges are made from recycled plastic, and will not splinter or absorb fluids. They can be used for interlocking box cribs, parallel cribs and triangle cribs.
