Are you still relying on traditional timber blocks for stacking and support in your workshop? Discover Stacko® Blocks – the smarter, safer, and more durable alternative.
Why Stacko™ Blocks Are Essential
Workshop support blocks are indispensable for various tasks, such as holding equipment during maintenance or acting as an additional support hand. However, traditional timber blocks come with inherent risks, including:
- Splitting, splintering, and rot, which can compromise safety and durability.
- Structural instability, as timber blocks are not designed to withstand heavy loads, increasing the risk of collapse.
- Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) concerns, which can lead to workplace accidents, serious injuries, or even fatalities.
Timber blocks may seem like a quick fix, but their lack of load rating and durability often makes them a hazardous choice.
