REID Sockets & Extensions

Socket extensions

Our socket extensions are designed to provide additional lift height or reach over obstacles, protective rails or walls for 65mm socket/kingpin products. Made from lightweight aluminium alloy, with handles for lifting and carrying, they’re designed to be easy to use. Simply insert them into the existing socket and assemble a standard TDAVIT or PORTADAVIT, as normal, using the extension as its socket.

Our socket extensions are available in three standard sizes:

• 500mm
• 800mm
• 1100mm

They can also be customised to meet our customers’ specific requirements.
