Ground Stabilization

Ground stabilization pads prevent equipment damage on soft ground, and Geocell increases road load-bearing capacity.

PortaPad
A PortaPad stabilizer pad or crane pad is a large, flat, and often square or circular-shaped platform placed under heavy equipment or machinery's outrigger or stabilizer leg to support and distribute the load over a larger surface area. It is typically made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) to withstand the weight and pressure exerted by the equipment.

The primary purpose of a PortaPad is to prevent the equipment from sinking into the ground or causing damage to the underlying surface. When heavy equipment, such as cranes, aerial lifts, or concrete pumps, is operated on soft or unstable ground, the PortaPad provide stability and ensures that the weight is evenly distributed. This helps to prevent the equipment from tipping over or sinking into the ground, which could result in accidents, equipment damage, or harm to workers.

PortaPad comes in various sizes and thicknesses, depending on the weight and type of equipment used. They are equipped with rope handles for ease of transportation and positioning.

Using PortaPad is considered a best practice in the construction, utility, and heavy equipment industries to ensure safe and stable operations. They are an essential equipment setup component, mainly when working on uneven or soft surfaces, and help maintain the work environment's integrity and safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

PortaPad provides stability and support for heavy equipment by distributing the weight over a larger surface area. They help prevent equipment from sinking into the soft or unstable ground, reducing the risk of tipping over or causing damage to the underlying surface.

PortaPad is made of high-density polyethene (HDPE), offering durability, strength, and resistance to environmental factors, making them suitable for heavy-duty applications.

The size and thickness of PortaPad depend on the weight, type, and configuration of the equipment being used. Consult our professional team to determine the appropriate pad size and thickness to ensure proper load distribution and stability.

PortaPad is designed for various surfaces, including grass, gravel, asphalt, concrete, and more. However, it is crucial to assess the ground conditions and consult the equipment manufacturer's recommendations to ensure the proper use and effectiveness of the pads.

PortaPad is designed with rope handles for easy transportation and positioning. This allows operators or workers to move and place the pads conveniently, enhancing efficiency on the job site.

PortaPad is generally low-maintenance. Regular visual inspections should be conducted to check for any signs of damage, such as cracks or excessive wear. Clean the pads as needed to remove dirt or debris. If any damage is identified, it is recommended to replace the pad to maintain optimal safety and performance.

PortaPad is designed to withstand a range of weather conditions. However, extreme conditions such as excessive heat or extreme cold may affect the performance of the pads. It is important to follow manufacturer guidelines and inspect the pads for any signs of damage before use in extreme weather.
