Features
Increased Productivity
Our HI-LITE 12K Aluminum Shoring System comes with an easy-to-handle design to complement its light weight. Often this means that one person is able to do work that would require two or more if working with steel or wood. Setting the frame with a crane or hand-setting it are both available options.
High Durability
Aluminum frames resist damage. They are re-usable and, in spite of being assembled and reassembled many times, they experience less on-site damage as workers find them easy to handle.
Highly Versatile
HI-LITE's Aluminum Shoring Frame will adapt to slopes or steps, whether they are at the top or bottom – or both at the same time. Swivel head screw jacks eliminate wedging. Almost any condition can be mastered using combinations of screw jacks, base plates, and extension tubes. The adjustability of the system is the contractor’s assurance that the project will proceed on schedule.
Low Maintenance and Reduced Handling Costs
HI-LITE Aluminum Shoring Frames are almost completely maintenance free. They are damage resistant, do not rust, and never require painting – increasing their overall service life. Lighter weight means less inventory, which leads to lower storage, transportation, and handling costs.
