All the equipment supplied is rigorously tested to meet ISO 9001, 16001 and OHSAS 18001 standards and the range offered ensures you’re able to satisfy all the foundation and groundwork requirements of your project.

SheetMaster

SheetMaster is a revolutionary, non-hydraulic, sheet handling and installation attachment developed to undertake the three dig and push operations of pitching, driving and extraction for the Groundforce Shorco range of trench sheets. Reducing the need for manual intervention and keeping operatives clear of the slewing excavator, means SheetMaster introduces greater safety into trench sheet handling operations by assigning much of the control to the excavator driver.

Pipe Lifter

The Groundforce Pipe Lifter has been designed specifically to lift and install concrete pipes safely, quickly and without manual intervention. The entire operation is controlled by the excavator machine and operator; from off-loading the delivery lorry to accurate placement and pipe insertion within the pipe run.

Lifting Chains

Lifting Chains are specifically configured for lifting Groundforce shoring equipment and are available in a range of lengths, legs and capacities.

Sheet Pile Extractors

Sheet Pile Extractors are available as ‘Standard Duty’ or ‘Heavy Duty’ and suit all sheet profiles. Both models are produced from high grade steel and incorporate a hardened steel pin.

Pitching Shackles

Quick Release Shackles are designed specifically for pitching trench sheets and piles using appropriate lifting equipment. They must not be used for pile extraction Their purpose is to enable sheet piles to be lifted vertically into temporary guides and then released quickly and safely from ground level once the sheet or pile is secured.

Manhole Ring Lifter

This universal mechanical attachment allows Manhole Rings and cones to be safely gripped internally for precise transportation and installation. Reducing the need for manual intervention, and keeping operatives clear of the slewing excavator, means the Manhole Ring Lifter introduces greater safety in handling operations by assigning much of the control to the excavator driver.
