Outrigger Pads For Bucket Trucks

Crane Outrigger Pads Made from UHMWPE – Durable, Lightweight & Non-Conductive Support for Heavy Machinery

Engineered for industrial excellence, our high-performance crane outrigger pads are crafted from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), offering a superior alternative to traditional wooden or steel supports. These pads provide exceptional load distribution across uneven surfaces while maintaining structural integrity under extreme pressure—ideal for mobile cranes, bucket trucks, access platforms, and heavy-duty construction equipment. Designed with safety, durability, and versatility in mind, they’re the go-to solution for operators who demand reliable ground support in challenging environments.

Key Features:

• Advanced thermoplastic construction ensures long-term resilience against mechanical stress and environmental wear.
• Industrial-grade texturing enhances grip on slippery or soft terrain, reducing slippage risk during lifting operations.
• Rounded edges and corners prevent damage to flooring materials like concrete, asphalt, or sensitive exhibition floors.
• Fully waterproof, oil-resistant, and chemically inert—perfect for use in chemical plants, refineries, and outdoor worksites.
• Non-conductive properties make them safe for use near electrical infrastructure or live power lines.
• Custom branding options available via stamping, engraving, or decal application for fleet identification and safety compliance.

These specialized outrigger pads are rigorously tested for performance under real-world conditions—from muddy job sites to paved city streets. Their unique material composition allows them to conform to irregular ground contours without deforming, ensuring consistent contact between the stabilizer foot and the surface. This not only improves stability but also minimizes ground pressure by spreading the load over a larger area—a critical factor when working on weak soil, grass, or delicate flooring such as gymnasiums, warehouses, or event venues.

Common Applications:

Used widely across industries including construction, utilities, event staging, mining, and emergency services, these pads serve as essential accessories for any vehicle-mounted crane, telehandler, cherry picker, or trailer unit. Whether you're deploying a boom lift on a gravel lot or setting up a mobile crane at an urban construction site, our pads ensure optimal balance and reduce the risk of tipping or sinking into unstable substrates. They are particularly valuable in applications where minimizing ground disturbance is crucial—for example, during temporary installations at historical sites, indoor exhibitions, or environmentally sensitive zones.

User Feedback Highlights:

Operators consistently praise the ease of handling, reduced setup time, and enhanced safety compared to conventional materials. Many note that the non-slip surface significantly improves confidence when operating on wet or sloped terrain, while others appreciate the ability to reuse the pads multiple times without degradation. The lightweight nature makes transportation and deployment more efficient, especially for teams managing several pieces of mobile equipment simultaneously.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What makes UHMWPE better than wood or steel? Unlike timber, it won’t splinter or rot; unlike steel, it resists corrosion and is much lighter for easier handling. How do I choose the right size? Consider your machine’s outrigger footprint and expected load capacity—custom sizes are available upon request. Are they suitable for cold climates? Yes—they retain flexibility even in sub-zero temperatures, making them ideal for northern regions or winter construction projects. Can they be used indoors? Absolutely—they leave no marks, resist oils and chemicals, and won’t scratch polished floors or vinyl decking.
