Prop Sleeve

A Prop Sleeve, also known as a Collar Sleeve, is a heavy-duty cylindrical component fitted on the outer tube of an adjustable prop. It works together with a prop nut and prop pin to allow smooth height adjustment of scaffolding props.
NOVSA manufactures Prop Sleeves with precision machining to ensure perfect threading, durability, and load-bearing capacity for safe construction works.
