Our specialist kit for ensuring peace-of-mind when erecting and building scaffold systems. The M2000 is a light and portable tester which is an essential tool for any scaffolder wanting to comply with current health and safety practices.

The National Access & Scaffolding Confederation (NASC) is the trade body for access and scaffolding in the UK.
The NASC Guidance Note 'TG4:19 - Anchorage Systems for Scaffolding' sets out requirements for two types of test:
- PRELIMINARY TESTS of scaffold anchors - to check the suitability and allowable loads of an anchor type in a particular base material
- PROOF TESTS - sample tests to check that anchors have been installed correctly – to be carried out on all jobs.
The TG4:19 describes a proof Load testing requirement is for a tensile test of 1.5 x the design load. For heavy duty ties with a capacity of 12.2kN this means a test load of 18.3kN.

The Hydrajaws Scaffold Tie Tester kit will test all types of anchor most commonly used for anchoring scaffold ties up to a maximum tensile load of 25kN.
Adaptors include a standard Bolt Test Adaptor, M16 Threaded Stud Adaptor and M12 Ringbolt Adaptor Clevis which means a wide range of fixings can be tested.
The M2000 Scaffold Anchor Pull Test kit is easy to use and light to transport. It comes complete with a comprehensive full colour user manual and the backing and support from our technical team at Hydrajaws.
