Product Description

Multi Handle Outrigger Pads

Multi Handle Outrigger Pads are heavy-duty UHMWPE support panels designed for mobile crane outriggers, concrete pump stabilizers, boom truck support legs, truck-mounted cranes, aerial work platforms and other machinery that uses hydraulic stabilizers during operation.

The product shown features a solid yellow square structure, smooth industrial working surfaces and multiple reinforced carrying handles positioned around the panel edges. Matching pads can be stacked and transported as a complete equipment support set.

The multiple-handle structure provides several gripping positions for moving, positioning and recovering larger support pads. This is particularly useful when the finished panel is too wide or heavy to be conveniently handled from one side.

Unlike temporary roadway mats, which are installed continuously to create vehicle access routes, outrigger pads are positioned directly beneath individual stabilizer feet. Their purpose is to increase the effective support area between the original equipment foot and the underlying surface.

Reference Sizes of Multi Handle Outrigger Pads

The exact dimensions of the yellow pads shown cannot be confirmed from the product photograph alone. The following dimensions are practical reference sizes for this type of solid UHMWPE crane and heavy-equipment support pad.

Reference Size Reference Thickness Typical Application
400 × 400 mm 30–40 mm Compact stabilizers and smaller service equipment
500 × 500 mm 40–50 mm Portable crane and utility vehicle support
600 × 600 mm 40–60 mm General mobile crane and boom truck applications
700 × 700 mm 50–60 mm Medium stabilizer support requirements
800 × 800 mm 50–80 mm Concrete pumps and medium heavy equipment
900 × 900 mm 60–80 mm Larger cranes and pump truck stabilizers
1000 × 1000 mm 60–100 mm Large mobile equipment support
1200 × 1200 mm 80–100 mm Large-format heavy-equipment applications

The approximately 400 × 400 × 30–40 mm and 500 × 500 × 40–50 mm formats provide relatively compact support options where vehicle storage space and repeated handling are important.

The approximately 600 × 600 × 40–60 mm format provides a practical balance between geometric support area, panel thickness, finished weight and portability.

Medium products such as approximately 700 × 700 × 50–60 mm and 800 × 800 × 50–80 mm provide broader support areas for mobile cranes, concrete pumps and boom trucks.

Larger formats such as approximately 900 × 900 × 60–80 mm, 1000 × 1000 × 60–100 mm and 1200 × 1200 × 80–100 mm require additional consideration for transportation, storage, finished product weight and handling methods.

The sizes above are reference product options rather than universal safe-working-load ratings. Final dimensions and thickness should be selected according to the maximum reaction at one stabilizer, original equipment-foot dimensions, required support area, UHMWPE stiffness and supporting surface condition.

Multiple Reinforced Carrying Handles

The defining feature of Multi Handle Outrigger Pads is the use of several carrying handles around the panel edges.

Multiple gripping positions can make it easier to:

  • Remove pads from vehicle or warehouse storage
  • Carry pads toward individual stabilizer positions
  • Adjust the panel before the equipment load is applied
  • Recover the support pad after operation
  • Coordinate two-person or team handling
  • Stack matching panels for transportation
  • Return complete pad sets to equipment storage

Handle structures can include reinforced flexible cable handles, nylon rope handles, coated carrying loops or application-specific lifting points.

Before moving a support pad, inspect:

  • The complete handle material
  • The protective grip section
  • The attachment points
  • The surrounding UHMWPE material
  • Visible cuts, looseness or excessive wear

The handles are designed for moving and positioning the support panel. They should not be treated as structural components carrying the crane or stabilizer load.

The presence of multiple handles does not mean every pad can safely be lifted manually. Large-format pads may require coordinated team handling or appropriate mechanical handling equipment.

High-Visibility Yellow Structure

The reference product uses a high-visibility yellow UHMWPE structure.

A clearly visible color can help with:

  • Identifying support pads during equipment setup
  • Separating different pad sizes or equipment sets
  • Organizing vehicle and warehouse storage
  • Checking whether all pads have been recovered after use
  • Improving visual identification around mobile machinery

Color should not be treated as an indication of load capacity. The safe product specification depends on the material grade, dimensions, thickness, equipment reaction and complete support condition.

Solid Square Support Structure

The product shown uses a solid square UHMWPE structure.

A square support panel provides:

  • Efficient use of the available geometric support area
  • Straight edges for positioning and stacking
  • Compatibility with round and rectangular stabilizer feet
  • Multiple practical length, width and thickness combinations
  • Organized vehicle and warehouse storage

The equipment foot should remain within the intended central working area of the pad. A stabilizer foot positioned close to an unsupported edge creates a different loading condition from one positioned within the main support area.

Stackable Equipment Support Sets

The product image shows multiple matching yellow support pads stacked together.

A stackable design can help with:

  • Keeping a complete equipment support set together
  • Organizing transportation and warehouse storage
  • Separating different product dimensions
  • Checking pad quantities before equipment setup
  • Confirming that all panels have been recovered after use
  • Preparing matching products for the next operating location

The storage surface should be reasonably level and suitable for the combined weight of the complete stack.

Hard objects, gravel and debris should be removed from the panels before stacking to prevent concentrated contact points and surface damage.

UHMWPE Material Construction

The primary material used for Multi Handle Outrigger Pads is ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene, commonly abbreviated as UHMWPE.

UHMWPE is a thermoplastic polyethylene with extremely long molecular chains. It is associated with high toughness, impact strength, extremely low moisture absorption, low friction and strong abrasion resistance.

For a general material explanation, see the Wikipedia article about ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene.

Practical UHMWPE characteristics for reusable outrigger support pads include:

  • High impact resistance
  • Strong abrasion resistance
  • Extremely low moisture absorption
  • Resistance to many acids and alkalis
  • Resistance to many corrosive chemicals
  • Corrosion-resistant plastic construction
  • Reusable industrial performance
  • Easy-to-clean working surfaces

Chemical resistance should not be treated as universal resistance to every substance. Actual compatibility depends on the chemical, concentration, exposure temperature, contact time and selected UHMWPE grade.

Impact Resistance for Repeated Equipment Setup

Crane and machinery support pads are repeatedly moved, positioned, loaded, recovered and transported.

During regular operation, the products may experience:

  • Repeated stabilizer-foot contact
  • Dragging during positioning
  • Contact with gravel or hard surfaces
  • Mud and sand contamination
  • Transportation between different locations
  • Repeated stacking and storage

The toughness and impact resistance of UHMWPE make the material practical for reusable industrial support components.

Impact resistance does not eliminate the need for inspection. Products showing serious cracks, deep cuts, severe deformation or damaged handle attachment points should be evaluated before reuse.

Low Moisture Absorption

Mobile cranes, boom trucks and concrete pumps frequently operate in outdoor environments.

The support pads may be exposed to:

  • Rain
  • Wet ground
  • Mud
  • Regular washing
  • Outdoor storage
  • Industrial moisture

The extremely low moisture absorption of UHMWPE is useful for reusable support components operating in wet and changing environments.

The products should still be cleaned, dried where practical and inspected after contaminated or wet operation.

How Multi Handle Outrigger Pads Work

A hydraulic stabilizer transfers a concentrated reaction through a relatively small original equipment foot.

Multi Handle Outrigger Pads provide a larger geometric contact area beneath that foot.

The effectiveness of the complete support arrangement depends on:

  • Maximum individual stabilizer reaction
  • Panel length and width
  • Panel thickness
  • UHMWPE grade and stiffness
  • Original equipment-foot dimensions
  • Position of the stabilizer foot
  • Supporting ground condition
  • Support beneath the complete panel area

A larger outside dimension provides a larger geometric footprint, but size alone should not be treated as a universal safe-working-load guarantee.

How to Select the Correct Pad Size

The correct support pad should not be selected only according to the total weight or rated lifting capacity of the equipment.

Individual stabilizer reactions can vary according to:

  • Boom direction
  • Working radius
  • Lifted load
  • Outrigger extension
  • Equipment geometry
  • Operating configuration

Important selection factors include:

  • Maximum reaction at one support leg
  • Original stabilizer-foot dimensions
  • Required effective support area
  • Ground-bearing condition
  • Panel length and width
  • Panel thickness
  • UHMWPE stiffness
  • Handling and storage requirements

Each support position should be evaluated separately because loads and ground conditions can differ around the same machine.

Why Pad Thickness Matters

Two pads with the same outside dimensions can behave differently when their thicknesses are different.

For example, a 600 × 600 mm product may be considered in several reference thicknesses:

  • 600 × 600 × 40 mm
  • 600 × 600 × 50 mm
  • 600 × 600 × 60 mm

An 800 × 800 mm product may be considered as:

  • 800 × 800 × 50 mm
  • 800 × 800 × 60 mm
  • 800 × 800 × 80 mm

Thickness can affect:

  • Panel stiffness
  • Finished product weight
  • Handling requirements
  • Vehicle storage requirements
  • Structural response beneath the stabilizer foot

The final thickness should be selected according to the actual stabilizer reaction, support-foot dimensions, UHMWPE grade, required support area and ground condition.

Applications of Multi Handle Outrigger Pads

Multi Handle Outrigger Pads can be used with many types of stabilizer-equipped machinery.

  • Mobile cranes
  • Truck-mounted cranes
  • Knuckle boom cranes
  • Boom trucks
  • Concrete pump trucks
  • Boom pumps
  • Aerial work platforms
  • Digger derricks
  • Utility service vehicles
  • Maintenance trucks
  • Tree-care equipment
  • Forestry machinery
  • Heavy machinery stabilizers
  • Selected industrial lifting equipment

The correct product dimensions, thickness, material grade and handle arrangement should always be matched to the actual equipment support point.

Mobile Crane Applications

Mobile crane outrigger reactions can vary according to boom direction, working radius, lifted load, crane geometry and outrigger extension.

Before selecting a support pad, consider:

  • Maximum individual outrigger reaction
  • Original crane-foot dimensions
  • Required support area
  • Supporting surface condition
  • Panel dimensions
  • Panel thickness
  • Material stiffness

The same crane may require different support considerations at different operating locations or configurations.

Concrete Pump and Boom Truck Applications

Concrete pumps and boom trucks also use hydraulic stabilizers to create a wider operating base.

Important selection factors include:

  • Maximum stabilizer reaction
  • Boom position and configuration
  • Original equipment-foot dimensions
  • Required support area
  • Ground condition
  • Pad dimensions and thickness

Each stabilizer position should be evaluated separately because reactions and supporting conditions can differ around the same equipment.

Correct Stabilizer-Foot Positioning

Correct positioning is important when using Multi Handle Outrigger Pads.

Before applying the equipment load, confirm that:

  • The support pad is correctly positioned
  • The stabilizer foot remains within the intended working area
  • The pad is not spanning a large unsupported void
  • The lower surface has appropriate support
  • Large stones or hard objects are not trapped beneath the panel
  • The stabilizer is not positioned close to an unstable edge

The upper working surface should remain free from excessive oil, mud, stones and metal debris.

Inspection, Cleaning and Storage

Reusable support pads should be inspected before every demanding equipment setup.

Check:

  • The upper working surface
  • The lower support surface
  • The outside edges and corners
  • Every carrying handle
  • The handle attachment points
  • Visible cracks or severe deformation
  • Deep cuts or excessive wear

After operation, remove mud, sand, oil, gravel and other debris from the primary working surfaces.

During storage:

  • Keep matching pad sizes together
  • Avoid unstable stacking
  • Separate damaged products
  • Inspect handles before moving the pads
  • Use appropriate handling methods for large panels
  • Keep the working surfaces accessible for inspection
