Adjustable Steel Props - Post-Weld Galvanized, EN 1065 Tested, Built to Outlast
Engineered for safety and longevity, JINGFANG® Adjustable Steel Props are built from 100% new steel - welded first, then galvanized, ensuring 360° galvanizing coverage on every seam. We apply alkaline galvanization (NSS tested 72+ hours) and acrylic enamel for years of colorfast protection.
Every base plate is full penetration welded to GB 50661-2011. Every tube meets strict wall thickness tolerances with zero negative deviation. Fully tested to EN 1065:1998 鈥?the European standard for adjustable telescopic steel props. No pre-galvanized tube. No shortcuts. No compromise.

FAQ about JINGFANG® Adjustable Steel Props
Q1: Do you use pre-galvanized tubes?
A: No. We galvanize after welding 鈥?not before. This ensures every weld seam, inside and out, is fully encapsulated in a continuous galvanizing layer. Pre-galvanized tube loses its galvanizing coating at every cut and weld joint, leaving bare steel exposed. That is where rust starts. Our post-weld galvanizing eliminates this hidden risk entirely.
Q2: What is the difference between alkaline and acidic galvanization?
A: Alkaline galvanization produces a dense, bright, environmentally friendly coating with NSS salt spray resistance of 72+ hours. Acidic galvanization 鈥?commonly used on lower-cost props 鈥?achieves less than 24 hours in the same test and tarnishes within months. Our galvanizing bath also contains ≥70% pure galvanizing, not the <30% galvanizing / >70% aluminum mix found in inferior coatings.
Q3: How do you control wall thickness and weight?
A: We enforce strict positive tolerance: wall thickness deviation within ±0.1mm, weight deviation within ±0.5%. Many manufacturers default to negative tolerance 鈥?claiming 2.0mm but delivering 1.8mm. We deliver exactly what we promise. Every batch. Every prop.
Q4: Are your steel props tested to international standards?
A: Yes. Our props are tested to EN 1065:1998, the European standard for adjustable telescopic steel props. Testing is conducted by SGS across multiple heights covering the full adjustment range, including maximum extension 鈥?the most critical load condition.
Q5: What grade of nuts do you use for tripod, and why does it matter?
A: We use Grade 8.8 high-strength nuts with a tensile strength of 800 MPa and yield strength of 640 MPa. Inferior props often use Grade 4.8 nuts 鈥?only 400 MPa tensile strength. Under heavy or repeated loading, low-grade nuts can strip or fracture. We also use 32mm+ tube diameters, not the 28mm found on substandard alternatives. Every component is built to match the system's full load capacity.
