ALUPERCHA + HOUSING TUBE
Overhead fall protection system designed to be installed by hand, that protects workers against fall from heights, especially effective for perimeters and during the decking of horizontal formwork.
Thanks to the lightweight design (just 19kgs), the Alupercha can be installed easily and fast without the need of crane, reducing costs and time. Additionally, the system can also be installed using a crane if that is prefered, by using the crane connector.
Efficient overhead fall protection system for the stage of the formwork decking process, or installation of: guardrails, gallows-type safety nets, formwork risers, and in general, all formwork assembly activities that entail the risk of falling from heights, can be carried out in an entirely safe manner.
With an easy and simple assembly process, it can be installed by a competent person.
Fully compatible with all the Alsipercha accessory range.
