MAPS Arch Spreader

Description

Shore Hire presents the MAPS Arch Spreader – a high-clearance steel strut engineered for use within the Modular Aluminium Panel Shield (MAPS) system. Designed to maximise vertical working space, it provides generous under-strut clearance for personnel and equipment in trench excavations. Compatible with MAPS 2.4 m and 3.0 m End Members, MAPS Struts 3 and 4, and MAPS Panels (1800, 2400, 3000), it offers flexible configuration options using fixed and adjustable struts.

Constructed from Grade 350 steel and certified to AS 4744.1 and AS 4100 standards, it delivers reliable, compliant support for complex shoring applications.

Suited For

The MAPS Arch Spreader is frequently used on civil construction sites, infrastructure upgrades, pipeline, sewer and conduit work as well as general trenching and excavation projects. Its modularity makes it ideal for jobs where machinery access is limited, or manual assembly is preferred. Whether supporting trench walls during pipe installation, electrical conduit works, or shallow utility runs, the MAPS system provides reliable and compliant trench support that adapts to different widths and configurations.
