What does a crane mat weigh?
The weight of
a crane mat
All you need to know
One crane mat is not like another. Despite the same length, not every crane mat has the same weight. At Welex B.V., we offer crane mats in different sizes and wood types, which means the weights can vary.
Variation in size and weight
Our crane mats range in length from 3 to 12 metres and have a thickness of 7 to 30 cm. The exact weight of a bogmat therefore depends on its specific dimensions. Here are some examples:
- A crane mat 3 metres long, 1 metre wide and 7 cm thick weighs about 250 kilos when made of full Ekki wood
- The same bogmat, but made from a combination of Ekki wood and another tropical hardwood, weighs about 220 kilos
Wood types and their influence on weight
At Welex, we use different types of wood for our crane mats, which also affects their weight. Ekki wood, a hard species of tropical hardwood, is a popular choice because of its durability and longevity. We also offer combination mats, where two wood species are used in one bogmat, such as a combination of Basracolus and Ekki or Dabema and Ekki.
Examples of weights
The lightest crane mats are the shorter variants of 2 or 3 metres. Here is a calculation for the weight of a crane mat made of Ekki wood:
- Formula: length in metres x width in metres x height in metres x 1.200
- A crane mat 7 metres long, 1 metre wide and 0.2 metres high weighs about 1,700 kg
- The largest crane mats of 12 metres can even weigh over 4,300 kilos
