What Are Crane Pads?
Crane pads are heavy-duty platforms, often made of materials like wood or polyethylene, that are designed to provide a solid, stable base for cranes and other heavy lifting equipment. The crane pad helps to support the lifting equipment by spreading out the pressure exerted on the outriggers, keeping them from displacing the ground beneath them and providing a stable, secure base.
Crane mats can easily be moved and repositioned to meet the needs of each site you are working on, offering flexibility and reliability for construction industries.
Why Should I Buy a Crane Mat?
By reducing the risk of equipment and ground damage and cutting down time spent on lifting operations, using crane mats will help to keep your project both on schedule and within your budget!
