Our crane foot pads are made to provide a solid foundation for crane outriggers and stabilizers. They are also commonly described as outrigger pads or outrigger mats. On soils such as earth soils, gravel, asphalt roads, grass, fill ground, and others, the use of the proper foot pad will help reduce the bearing capacity of the soil, make it more stable, and protect it from being overloaded.
Detailed technical specifications
Key Features & Advantages
Disperse outrigger pressure over a wider area so the ground can support the load more effectively.
Lightweight, cost-effective HDPE and higher wear-resistant UHMWPE material options.
Do not rot, splinter, or absorb water.
Impervious to water and resistant to common site chemicals and oils.
Multiple duty levels of medium-duty, heavy-duty, extra-heavy or super-duty available.
Square and round formats for different outrigger footprints.
Handling features of rope handles, molded handles, hand cutouts, and recessed carrying for field efficiency.
Applications
Mobile crane rigging on compacted soil, gravel, and uncompleted construction sites.
Stabilization for boom truck, digger derrick, and aerial rig equipment.
Concrete pumping trucks operating on varied terrain on site.
Utility and service truck outrigger stabilization.
Rails service equipment, drilling equipment, earthmoving equipment, and heavy service equipment requiring outriggers or stabilizers for safe positioning.
Each batch undergoes thorough inspection on the shop floor. Raw material is tested upon arrival, as well as finished parts upon completion. Anything failing to conform to specifications is not shipped out.
ISO 9001:2015 certification requires written processes, production control measures, and traceability of the process from initial raw material to finished part. More critically, ISO helps us maintain tolerances across multiple batches, rather than just in theory.
In cases of applications involving food production, only selected types of HDPE and UHMWPE materials which conform to FDA food-grade standards are used. These grades are usually utilized in cutting surfaces, guides, and wear parts.
Materials comply with RoHS environmental regulations in terms of substance content restrictions. This is ensured by monitoring the components of the material, rather than the finished part.
Material test reports available upon request include mechanical properties such as tensile strength and impact value, as well as wear information and dimensional checks.
Correct sizing is about three things: outrigger load, foot size, and actual ground condition. Start with your outrigger reaction force, not just the crane’s total rated lift. The pad area has to reduce that reaction force to a ground bearing pressure that the surface can safely support.
Pads should be cleaned after use, secured for transport, and stored in an organized way to prevent shifting or edge damage. Checking pads before reuse. Keeping them free from debris or contamination that could affect setup safety.
Our crane foot pads evenly disperse the concentrated pressure of crane outriggers, effectively avoiding soil compaction, rutting and damage to lawns, turf and underground pipelines. It greatly reduces the cost of post-construction landscape restoration.
Yes. HDPE/UHMWPE crane foot pads have strong chemical resistance, will not swell or degrade when contacting diesel, oil, grease and fertilizers. They are very easy to decontaminate after use.
No. The water absorption rate of our pads is less than 0.01%, they will not absorb water, deform or rot, and can maintain stable performance in marshy, flooded and muddy environments.
No. Our pads are added with professional UV stabilizers, which can resist long-term sunlight exposure, avoid surface chalking and brittleness.
Yes. Small cracks or minor damages on the pads can be repaired by plastic welding to restore their service performance. Only large-area structural damages need to be replaced directly.
Yes. We provide smooth-surfaced crane outrigger pads, which can effectively protect indoor concrete, epoxy and other finished floors from scratches and heavy pressure damage during handling and crane operation.
Plastic crane foot pads will not rot, splinter or absorb water, and have higher wear resistance and durability. They can be reused for many times in different projects, with a much longer service life than wooden pads.
