Custom size outrigger pads Saudi Arabia projects need most often come from cranes whose outrigger footprint doesn’t match any standard size, or from sites where ground bearing capacity is low enough that even the largest standard pad can’t provide adequate load distribution. Diode Trading EST fabricates these pads for less common crane models, non-standard outrigger configurations, and sites with particularly soft or uneven ground.
Custom Size Outrigger Pads Saudi Arabia Projects Choose Over Standard Sizes
Most cranes working across Saudi Arabia use one of a handful of common outrigger float sizes, which is why standard UHMWPE pads cover the majority of jobs. A custom pad becomes worthwhile when the outrigger float is an unusual shape or size, when ground bearing calculations show that even the largest standard pad would still exceed safe bearing pressure, or when a project needs extra thickness for rigidity on marginal ground. OSHA’s ground conditions requirement for cranes and derricks (29 CFR 1926.1402) is a useful reference point for confirming when supporting materials like an outrigger pad are needed at all.
What We Need to Quote a Custom Pad
- Outrigger footprint dimensions from the crane manufacturer’s data
- Maximum outrigger reaction force from the load chart
- Ground bearing capacity at the site, if known
- Required quantity and delivery timeframe
Material and Turnaround
Custom pads are manufactured from the same UHMWPE material as our standard sizes, so there’s no compromise on wear resistance or load performance — only the footprint and thickness change to match your requirement. Lead times depend on size and quantity: smaller custom runs can often be turned around in days, while larger bulk orders need more time for material and CNC cutting. We keep raw sheet stock in common thicknesses on hand specifically to shorten this turnaround for one-off and small-batch custom orders.
Where We Deliver Custom Pads
We supply custom size outrigger pads across the Eastern Province (Dammam, Khobar, Jubail), the Red Sea industrial corridor around Yanbu, and the Riyadh and Jeddah metro areas. Because each pad is cut to your crane’s exact float dimensions rather than a catalog size, it’s worth sending your outrigger drawing and load chart as early in project planning as possible — that gives us the lead time to fabricate and deliver before your mobilization date.
FAQ
In short, getting custom size outrigger pads Saudi Arabia projects need comes down to matching pad dimensions to your crane’s actual reaction load and site ground conditions rather than defaulting to a standard size. Diode Trading EST manufactures custom size outrigger pads Saudi Arabia contractors specify, cut and molded to the exact dimensions your job requires.
Diode Trading EST fabricates custom outrigger pads to your crane’s exact footprint and your site’s ground conditions. Contact us with your outrigger dimensions and load chart for a quote.
Lead Times for Custom Sizing
Custom-sized outrigger pads generally take longer to produce than standard stock sizes, since they are cut and finished to order rather than pulled from existing inventory. Confirming your required dimensions and quantity as early as possible in the project schedule gives more flexibility on delivery timing than requesting a custom size close to the planned lift date.
If your project has a fixed lift date, it is worth discussing custom sizing with your supplier as soon as the ground conditions and load requirements are known, even before every other project detail is finalized, since production lead time is usually the limiting factor rather than any other part of the order process.
Combining Custom and Standard Sizes on One Project
Larger projects sometimes need a mix of standard stock pads for most equipment and a smaller number of custom sizes for specific machines or unusual load points. Ordering both together, rather than as separate requests at different times, usually simplifies delivery logistics and avoids the custom pads becoming a bottleneck for equipment that could have used standard stock sizes.
A short conversation with your supplier about which parts of the order are time-critical also helps them prioritize production accordingly, rather than treating every item on a mixed order as equally urgent.
