Prop Bracing Swivel Coupler
Product Highlights
- 360° connection angle - Enables flexible bracing of scaffold tubes to props at any direction.
- High-strength steel build - Forged and zinc-plated for maximum durability on site.
- Standards-compliant - Fully tested to EN74-1, Class B for scaffold compatibility.
SKU SE3421
This coupler is forged from high-strength steel with a zinc-coated exterior that resists rust and degradation. It is fully compliant with EN74-1, Class B scaffold coupler specifications. Ideal for propping falsework, supporting vertical loads, or forming temporary diagonal braces, it improves system adaptability in confined or irregular construction zones.
- 360° adjustability - Swivel mechanism enables variable angle bracing for props and scaffold tubes.
- Durable materials - Zinc-plated forged steel extends life in outdoor or corrosive environments.
- EN74-1 certified - Meets industry standards for safe scaffold coupler applications.
- Compact design - Allows for easy use in tight or angled working areas.
- Essential for shoring - Ideal for tying scaffold tubes to acrow props in temporary structures.
Scaffold couplers like this prop swivel type are vital for reinforcing scaffold tubes and fittings where vertical props are used. They secure joint rigidity, enabling braced connections that resist slippage and movement. This supports load-bearing capability and structural safety in formwork, repairs or multi-level works.
The 360° rotation gives workers the flexibility to align bracing members at optimal angles without having to reposition base props. In high-pressure environments like slab supports or façade retention scaffolds, this adaptability improves efficiency and confidence on site.

It’s ideal for use on civil engineering works, structural repairs, or internal propping systems. Thanks to its zinc-plated finish, the unit remains protected from site grime, weather and concrete dust — key in high-wear environments. The steel body won’t deform under load and provides long-term strength with low maintenance demands.
Builders, scaffolders and temporary works engineers use this coupling in shoring frames, braced scaffold towers, or slab formwork setups. It's also used in modular support systems that must be adjusted on the fly. Once fastened using standard scaffold spanners, the coupler holds firm even under shifting loads or multi-point bracing.
The ability to attach props to scaffold tubes in varied orientations improves layout flexibility, especially when bracing back to nearby walls, columns or fixed structures. This scaffold coupler unlocks layouts that would otherwise require custom frames or multiple fixings. Whether working in tight plant rooms or open commercial builds, it delivers a dependable connection point.
Ultimately, it enhances how scaffold tubes and fittings can be configured, saving time during setup and improving adaptability across evolving site conditions. When used correctly, this EN74-1 certified swivel coupler gives peace of mind that your temporary structure has the resilience to perform safely across a full work cycle.
