Plastic crane outrigger pads

Plastic Crane Outrigger Pads for Boom Trucks – Durable, Lightweight & High-Load Support

Engineered for heavy-duty lifting applications, our high-performance plastic crane Outrigger Pads are crafted from premium ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), offering a safer and more efficient alternative to traditional wood or steel plates. These industrial-grade pads excel in extreme conditions—delivering exceptional load distribution, structural integrity, and long-term durability across diverse terrains including soft ground, asphalt, concrete, and sensitive flooring. Designed with precision and tested rigorously, they’re ideal for boom trucks, mobile cranes, access platforms, and trailer units where stability and safety are paramount.

Key features include an engineered thermoplastic construction that resists cracking, splintering, and corrosion; industrial-grade texturing for enhanced grip; rounded edges to minimize tripping hazards; waterproofing and chemical resistance for harsh environments; non-conductive properties ensuring electrical safety; and customizable options such as engraving or decals for branding and identification. Each pad conforms to uneven surfaces while maintaining shape and performance—ensuring consistent support during critical lifting operations.

Available in multiple sizes and thicknesses—from 25mm to 80mm—the pads offer tailored solutions based on equipment type, load capacity, and site conditions. For example, the 1000x1000mm 40mm thick model supports up to 94 tons, while the 1200x1200mm 80mm version handles over 133 tons. The weight-to-load ratio makes them easy to handle manually without compromising strength—a crucial advantage for field crews working under tight deadlines. Their modular design allows quick setup and reconfiguration, reducing downtime and improving operational efficiency across construction sites, event staging, logistics, and utility services.

These outrigger pads are widely used by professionals operating vehicle-mounted boom lifts, aerial work platforms, and mobile cranes in industries like infrastructure development, manufacturing, oil and gas, and temporary event production. Whether you're stabilizing equipment on delicate flooring or distributing weight across unstable soil, our pads reduce ground pressure significantly—enhancing safety, compliance, and productivity. They’re also perfect for use in confined spaces where space-saving and portability matter most.

Users consistently report improved job site safety, reduced equipment wear, and fewer incidents of sinking or instability compared to conventional materials. Many appreciate the ease of handling, especially when deploying multiple pads per lift cycle. The low maintenance requirements and resistance to environmental stressors make these pads a cost-effective investment over time, minimizing replacement frequency and maximizing return on asset utilization.

Common questions often revolve around compatibility with specific crane models, maximum load capacities per size, and suitability for wet or icy conditions. Our pads perform reliably even in freezing temperatures and resist moisture absorption—making them suitable for year-round outdoor use. While not intended for submersion, their water-resistant nature ensures no degradation from rain, spills, or humidity. For optimal results, always match the pad size and thickness to your crane’s outrigger foot dimensions and expected load profile.
