Trench Struts

Conquip Trench Struts are horizontal mechanical supports used to provide lateral restraint and prevent the collapse of trench walls.

They support and maintain the position of timber walings, steel trench sheets, and hydraulic shoring systems in excavations from shallow to medium depths.

Trench struts are commonly used in civil engineering applications including concrete pipe installation, utility maintenance and repair work and cable installation.
