Cut Pipe Paver Support System

'ProSupport' hybrid paver supports offer the simplicity of a cut-to-length HDPE pipe system but with the convenience of an added short screw adjustment section with the option of a fixed or self-leveling head.

Unlike the screwed column type of pedestals such as our Prime series, ProSupport pedestals use precut lengths of HDPE pipe fitted between a polypropylene base section and the head components. The entire system consists of just six components (plus cut lengths of pipe) which can cover a height range from 1 3/8″ to as high as 39″.

‘ProSupport' pedestals are particularly useful for high elevation decks where a solid pipe may offer greater stability compared with screwed columns fitted with multiple extension elements and where the incremental cost of increasing the height beyond 2 7/8" is determined only by the length of pipe used.

At the lowest elevations from 1 3/8" – 2 7/8" where it is impractical to use a cut pipe, two sizes of screw adjustable pedestals are used to provide continuous height adjustment. Above 2 7/8", sections of cut HDPE pipe are used in combination with a short, screwed adjustment column, which permits height adjustment of up to 1 ½" as well as micro adjustment even after installation, by inserting a special tool into the head of the pedestal. This screwed column also has the unique advantage of being able to switch from a fixed head configuration to a self-levelling head providing up to 5% compensation simply by flipping the column – no extra components needed.

The plastic head has inbuilt spacers tabs which are snapped off when not required. For enhanced noise reduction and slip resistance, a 1/16" rubber shim is normally added to the head.

Key Benefits of 'ProSupport' Paver Supports

• just six components needed for height range from 1 3/8" to 39"

• 3010 lb. maximum load per pedestal

• self-leveling head adjusts for slopes up to 5%

• simply flip column to switch from fixed head to self-leveling

• no need for multiple models of pedestals

• easier to estimate components when elevations are unclear
