Their lightweight construction allows for quick installation and removal from above ground, keeping workers safely out of unshored trenches. Waler systems are designed to allow maximum protection, coupled with the optimum horizontal clearance, and flexibility needed to work around crossing utility lines. Available in two styles, waler systems cover a variety of soil and sheeting variations to meet site-specific shoring requirements. Selection of the proper system will provide unequalled support for timber, steel, or fiberglass sheeting while maximizing workspace within the open bays. Walers with hydraulic struts allow end-loading in a three sided application, for pipe repair or valve maintenance. Walers with hydraulic cylinders are designed to be used in a two-sided application for production work. Waler system features include: • 100% above-ground installation eliminates worker exposure to dangerous trench collapses • Aluminum alloy construction provides lightweight, extremely portable systems of exceptional strength • Easy-to-use hydraulic system provides precise control of cylinder pre-load with a gauge- regulated hand pump • P.E. certified for use in A, B, C-60, and C soils • Optional one-piece extensions are easily installed at the jobsite, extending cylinder operating ranges for wider trench widths Disclaimer: Data listed is for reference only and shall not be used by a competent person to make a determination regarding the safe use of shoring devices.
