GLL Toe Board Clip is hot-dip galvanized according to ASTM A123 standard, and the zinc-iron alloy coating is formed by completely immersing the steel parts in 500℃ molten zinc liquid. This process gives the product three core advantages:
Full-dimensional protection: The zinc layer evenly covers the surface of the fixture, including threads, corners and other areas that are easily missed by traditional coatings, achieving 360° corrosion protection without dead ends.
Extremely long service life: In industrial environment tests, the zinc coating of our GLL fixture can resist salt spray corrosion for more than 2,000 hours, far exceeding the 300 hours of ordinary electrogalvanized products.
Self-repairing properties: Even if the coating is damaged by external force, the zinc layer will continue to protect the substrate through electrochemical sacrificial anode reaction to prevent the spread of rust.
Based on the complex working conditions of the construction site, our GLL engineering team optimized the mechanical design of the clamp:
High-strength bite structure: The double-ear buckle design, combined with anti-slip teeth, can withstand vertical loads, far exceeding the industry standard requirements.
Quick installation system: GLL patented spring locking mechanism supports one-handed operation, and the installation time is shorter than that of traditional bolt-type clamps, significantly improves construction efficiency.
Modular adaptability: Compatible with scaffolding poles of various pipe diameters, and can be connected to the safety net bracket through the expansion interface to meet diverse protection needs.
GLL hot-dip galvanized toeboard clamps have passed multiple authoritative certifications:
EU CE certification: meets EN 12811-1 scaffolding safety standards and maintains structural integrity during dynamic load tests.
US OSHA compliance: meets 29 CFR 1926.451 high-altitude fall protection specifications, and anti-slip performance passes ASTM F1679 test.
500,000 fatigue tests: Under conditions simulating repeated loading and unloading, the galvanized layer of the clamps does not peel off, and the mechanical performance attenuation rate is less than 2%.
Compared with stainless steel or paint-coated products, the life cycle cost (LCC) of GLL clamps is reduced:
Maintenance cost is close to zero: the hot-dip galvanized layer does not need regular repainting and can remain maintenance-free for 15 years in coastal corrosive environments.
High recyclable value: the recycling price of galvanized steel is higher than that of ordinary carbon steel, which meets the requirements of LEED green building certification for material recycling.
Low construction loss rate: the patented structural design reduces the installation error rate and reduces the scrapping of components due to improper operation.
