HERMEQ aluminium beams provide safe and lightweight support for scaffolding applications and structural bridging tasks. With options in 4.1m, 6.1m, and 8.1m lengths, and a consistent width of 450mm, these alloy beams serve as a versatile and compliant solution for various construction needs.
Compared to steel alternatives, aluminium beams offer significantly lower weight without compromising on strength. This makes them ideal for scaffolders and site managers looking for safer manual handling and faster on-site installation.
All HERMEQ aluminium beams are manufactured in the UK and conform to BS EN 1999-1-1:2007+A2:2013 standards. Each beam can be joined using universal spigots and fixed with spring clips—both available from HERMEQ—to build stable and load-resistant beam lines.
- 3 length options - 4.1m (18kg), 6.1m (27kg), and 8.1m (36kg) to suit different scaffold spans.
- Lightweight aluminium - Easier to lift, transport and position compared to traditional steel beams.
- Structural compliance - Manufactured in the UK to BS EN 1999-1-1:2007+A2:2013.
- Connector ready - Use spigots and spring clips for quick and secure beam linking.
- 450mm wide - Suitable for heavy-duty scaffolding beams and bridging applications.
HERMEQ aluminium beams are trusted across the UK construction sector where weight, strength, and compliance intersect. They are used in complex scaffold designs, overhead walkways, bridged access points, and large-span loading platforms. The low weight makes them easier and safer to move manually, reducing installation time and improving productivity.
These beams are particularly useful when traditional scaffolding beams might be too heavy or inflexible for the task. The 450mm profile delivers strong lateral support while maintaining balance under heavy loads. Beam spigots and spring clips are available separately for rapid joining, giving users complete control over length and setup.
Whether you're bridging gaps, spanning scaffold towers, or constructing complex load-bearing configurations, HERMEQ aluminium beams provide a reliable, easy-to-handle foundation. They’re compatible with most market-standard components and suitable for scaffold contractors, civil engineers, and structural maintenance teams.
HERMEQ stock a wide-range of Scaffolding Equipment, Ladders & Jacks, Building Equipment & Temporary Fencing Accessories conforming to all required safety specifications and regulations.

- Used in beam bridges across scaffold towers, gantries and walkway installations.
- Delivers rigid support with minimal deflection when used in long-span scaffold applications.
- Supplied with optional connectors including spigots and spring clips for beam-line assembly.
- Common in façade access scaffolds, bridge maintenance platforms, and shoring frames.
Each aluminium beam is designed to balance load capacity with portability. From civil engineering jobs to scaffold adaptations in restricted spaces, this product helps teams achieve stability and compliance without compromising efficiency. The beams’ weight-to-strength ratio makes them ideal for situations where weight restrictions or manual handling concerns are present.
These scaffolding beams offer flexible integration across both temporary and semi-permanent site structures. Scaffold contractors benefit from their modular capability and ease of use across various height and span scenarios. The clean profile allows uniform fitting with industry-standard clamps and junctions, giving full compatibility with HERMEQ and non-HERMEQ systems.
What sizes are the aluminium beams available in?
We offer 4.1m, 6.1m, and 8.1m lengths. All beams are 450mm wide for optimal scaffold integration.
Are these aluminium beams compatible with other scaffold systems?
Yes, our beams work with most scaffold systems using spigots and spring clips.
What are the typical use cases?
These are ideal for scaffolding beams, walkway bridges, façade support, and structural spans on civil sites.
Do the beams meet safety standards?
Yes, they’re manufactured in the UK and comply with BS EN 1999-1-1:2007+A2:2013 regulations.
