3m Aluminium Plank

The longer the aluminium plank, the better (generally).

Longer requires less moving around of your setup, and provides a more spacious workspace. So it is normally recommended to go as long as you possibly can. 

The right length planks will also be defined by the space you have to get the job done.

If you're regularly using planks or have multiple different spaces, then it will be better to have a range of different planks lengths to avoid costly delays and extra work. 

There is no one size fits all. 
Instead, we choose the right plank size best matched to the space and limitations we face.

Yakka Gear offers planks made from one solid extrusion and reinforced with 2x internal support columns.

We refuse to offer the extendable plank, because it is made of many individual sliding components which may create unsafe wobble and instability when walking across it.
The shape is not symmetric on each end, which means it is unsuitable when used as a ramp because it is off-balanced.

Yes, you can manually pull out the rubber treads if not desired.

Our planks use a removable endcap system, which allow you to easily relocate it to the newly cut end.

Cuts may be made made with a circular saw with an aluminium cutting blade. Please seek expert help if required.

Yes. They prevent rubbish from filling inside the plank, and prevent injury by covering the sharp ends.

With Expert Plank Clamps you will 2x your work capacity, and 2x your safety.

The magic of the Expert plank clamp is the simplicity and safety of linking 2 planks together.

Why not just put 2 planks side by side then?

If you have ever tried this then you will already know how dangerous it is...
This is because the planks will lift up and down independently of each other as you shift your weight from one plank to another — which creates a trap for getting your feet or tools stuck.

The Expert Plank Clamp prevents the planks from moving independently.

But not all clamps are made equal.

Avoid using any design with a nut-and-bolt system that requires an Allen Key (aka Hex Key) for tightening. These designs are frustratingly fiddly to use.

Expert Plank Clamp difference?

Easy hand lever for adjusting tightness.

The spreader bar system wraps around both planks from underneath to help evenly distribute the weight across both planks and therefore effectively creates a 50% reduction on the planks flexing.

This is because traditionally companies have developed general pricing techniques where they may price according to the following methods below:

• Price per metre formula
• Lower prices for higher volume, and higher prices for low volume
• list products that are never in stock to mislead customers
• Raise the price, and then dance around bargaining and haggling on a price with the customer to squeeze the most out every customer.

All of the above can be broken price systems at times that do not consider the customer first and wastes the customers time. The end can result in leading to the customer overpaying for some or all items.

Yakka Gear uniquely aims to price by the lowest trade prices upfront for each individual product category and size. 
Some prices may seem like a jump, but rest assured it means our customers are getting our lowest trade prices upfront across each individual item.
