Altech Supasafe Deluxe Aluminium Plank 5.0m
The Altech Supasafe Deluxe aluminium plank is a 5m working plank built from structural grade aluminium alloy for extra strength and durability. It has four vee-grooved knurls on each side for superior grip, plus EPDM rubber friction strips that are ribbed for a firmer foothold on the Deluxe range. Cast aluminium end caps are fitted with countersunk head rivets, and two internal stiffening webs provide rigidity and impact resistance. It conforms to Australian Standard AS 1577-1993.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the load rating of the plank?
The plank is rated to 200kg per 2.75m span, which covers the weight of a person plus tools and materials across that span. It is built to conform to Australian Standard AS 1577-1993 for scaffolding planks.
What does the Deluxe range add over the standard range?
The Deluxe planks add EPDM rubber friction strips that are ribbed for a firmer foothold, on top of the four vee-grooved knurls that every Supasafe plank has. The strips give the Deluxe range extra grip in wet or smooth conditions.
How do I form a wider platform?
Using the compact and lightweight Altech twin-plank clamps, two planks can be quickly joined to form a 450mm wide twin-plank working platform. The clamps hold the planks side by side across the trestles.
How heavy is this 5m plank?
The 5m Deluxe plank weighs approximately 17.75kg. It is still manageable for one person to handle while carrying the 200kg per 2.75m span load rating, and the longer length covers more ground between supports.
