Nylacast Bigfoot - Crane Outrigger Pad

The Nylacast Bigfoot crane outrigger pad has been used with a number of major crane hire companies for over 40 years.  Nylacast Bigfoot was developed in conjunction with industrial demand, where a need arose for a reliable, strong and safe crane outrigger pad.  The pad needed to be made from tough affordable material strong enough to withstand heavyweights yet still be light enough to carry around.

Stable support for crane outriggers is essential for safe operation.  With Nylacast Bigfoot you can be sure you are using the correct tool for the job.

Unfortunately capsized cranes can occur and cause a significant number of injuries and fatalities a year. Many of these accidents are caused by operators using inappropriate materials or the use of no crane pads at all.  When weighing up the small cost involved in providing a stable support for the outriggers and preventing damage to the ground surface, in comparison to the high capital equipment costs involved with cranes, Nylacast Bigfoot makes perfect sense.

At Nylacast we also manufacture and supply the Littlefoot outrigger pad for lorry mounted cranes, which again have been proven in the field.
