Developed after years of study and testing, Indian Mill's Pin-Lok
Scaffold Planking was designed to be the strongest, safest, most durable plank on the market.

In our patented Pin-Lok process, multiple structural members of Dense Select Grade Southern Yellow Pine or Douglas Fir lumber are milled to size. The center strip is sealed to keep out moisture and job-site chemicals and aligned for the greatest possible strength from the material. Heat-treated twist steel pins are then inserted every 22 inches along the plank's length to bond the three pieces into a single solid unit. In tests conducted both at our facilities and at Purdue University, the resulting plank resists point, center and shock loads which destroyed standard DI65 and high-grade laminated wood planking.

Scaffold planking, truck and trailer beds, tool handles, decking and other wood products are all affected by moisture and chemicals. Jobsite conditions or the intended use of the material may make dry storage impractical or impossible.

Indian Mill's Grip Seal is an epoxy-resin based water-soluble product that protects all types of wood from water, weather and chemical damage. With the addition of aggregate, it also provides a non-slip surface to planking and other surfaces.
