Gibraltar SSWD-3-G Studded Pivotal Leveling Pad 1200 Lb

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR SSWD-3-G is a studded pivotal stud mount leveling pad designed to provide stable, adjustable support for equipment, machinery, and fabricated assemblies. The pivotal design allows the pad to self-align under load, compensating for minor floor irregularities and reducing stress concentrations at the mounting point. It accepts a 5/8-11 bolt thread and carries a maximum load capacity of 1,200 pounds. With a base diameter of 2.5 inches and an overall length of 3.25 inches, this leveling pad suits applications where a compact footprint and high load rating are both required. Installation is handled by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and mechanical contractors.

This leveling pad is suited for use in industrial, commercial, and light manufacturing environments. It is commonly installed beneath HVAC equipment bases, compressor skids, pump assemblies, and fabricated steel frames where leveling adjustability and floor protection are needed. The studded mount style threads directly into a tapped hole or mates with a jam nut for secure positioning. It is appropriate for both new equipment installations and retrofit leveling corrections on existing machinery.

Key Features

• Pivotal pad design self-aligns under load to compensate for uneven mounting surfaces
• 1,200 pound maximum load capacity suitable for heavy equipment support
• 5/8-11 bolt thread for compatibility with standard threaded fastener systems
• 2.5 inch base diameter provides a stable contact footprint
• 3.25 inch overall length allows for meaningful height adjustment range
• Compact form factor fits tight equipment bases and skid frames

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install leveling pad for equipment and machinery requiring a 5/8-11 studded mount leveling solution with a 1,200 pound load rating.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, or mechanical contractors using standard hand tools. De-energize and lock out all connected equipment before servicing or adjusting leveling pads under load-bearing assemblies. Thread the stud into the equipment base or mating nut until the desired height is achieved, then secure with a jam nut to prevent backing out during operation. Verify floor surface condition and confirm the pad base is in full contact before returning equipment to service.
