Why outrigger mats need to be used?

The outrigger mats offer effective support for machinery and vehicles that uses stabilisers or outrigger feet. These mats are used when the load bearing and spreading capacity becomes an issue on a terrain, such as soft ground or sensitive flooring.

Without these mats, the outriggers can potentially puncture the ground or damage certain surfaces, this in turn can compromise the stability and the safety of the crane or plant.

How do outrigger mats work?

The outrigger mats offer stable support by spreading the load from the outrigger foot over the large an tough surface of an Outrigger Pad or crane mat. The overall pressure on the ground is significantly reduced by applying the load over a wider surface area.

Some types of mat are very durable while lightweight, making them safe and easy to handle.
