Buy horizontal struts

Horizontalstreben schaffen eine feste Verbindung zwischen den vertikalen Komponenten und verteilen die Last gleichmäßig innerhalb der Konstruktion. Ob bei komplexen Gerüstsystemen oder einfachen Bauvorhaben - Horizontalstreben gewährleisten, dass die Struktur sicher und zuverlässig bleibt.

Advantages of horizontal struts

• Stabilise scaffolding bays in the transverse direction
• Ensure the grid dimensions are correct and prevent distortion
• Easy to handle during assembly and disassembly
• An important connecting element between vertical structural components
• System-specific function for façade and modular scaffolding

An overview of various horizontal struts

Standard horizontal struts

For traditional façade and frame scaffolding, specify bay widths and cross-bracing.

• Very quick installation

• Less flexible when it comes to special geometries

Modular horizontal struts

Braces with connection geometry for module nodes – flexible in 3D grid planning.

• Maximum grid flexibility

• Depending on the module node

Reinforced horizontal struts

For increased lateral stability or specific situations involving specialised scaffolding.

• High stability in demanding environments

• Heavier / slightly more difficult to handle

Short connecting struts

For fine details, transitions, adjustments and narrow fields.

• Precise adjustments are possible

• A supplementary function only

CETRAC supplies accessories for horizontal struts:

• Safety components
• Coupling adapter
• Connection fittings

Calculate scaffolding area

Are you putting your scaffolding together from individual parts? With our EasyFlow scaffolding area calculator, you can first work out the scaffolding area you need – so you’ll know exactly how many horizontal braces and other components you’ll require. It’s free, with no obligation, and takes just a few seconds.

FAQ – Horizontal struts

What are horizontal struts used for?

For lateral stabilisation and to ensure the correct span in the scaffolding.

Usually not. They are system-specific and compatible with the relevant grid.

Their main function is to provide horizontal stability, not to bear vertical loads.

Where there are increased requirements for lateral stability or in special scaffolding.

EasyFlow maps out the scaffolding area – bracing is defined separately via the system.
