CA 2243225

An end cap system for scaffolding planks, especially for hollow core planks formed of fiberglass or other composite materials, is disclosed. The end cap includes an extrusion having a plank-receiving portion on one side and a rib profile on the other side for slidingly receiving scaffolding hooks. A reinforcing member is placed in the hollow core, extending between its walls, and surrounding the fastening device securing the end cap to the plank, to resist deformation of the plank by the compressive force of the fastening device. The end cap permits similar parts to be used for a wide variety of plank widths and allows for replacement of damaged hooks or the exchange of hook configurations, such as between "high" or "low" hooks.

Système d'embouts pour madriers d'échafaudage en fibre de verre ou autre matériau composite. Chaque embout comprend une extrusion qui comporte une partie recevant le madrier d'un côté et un profil à nervures de l'autre côté pour recevoir des crochets d'échafaudage qu'on glisse en place. Un élément de renfort est placé dans l'âme creuse, s'étendant entre ses parois, et entourant le dispositif de fixation qui assujettit l'embout au madrier, pour résister à la déformation du madrier grâce à la force de compression du dispositif de fixation. L'embout permet d'utiliser des pièces similaires pour une grande variété de largeurs de madrier et de remplacer les crochets endommagés ou de changer la configuration des crochets, par exemple remplacer des crochets à profil élevé par des crochets à profil bas.
