A coupling member (2) for coupling scaffolding elements (4, 5) to uprights (3) in a scaffold or the like. The said coupling member (2) comprises a hook- shaped coupling part (7) arranged to be hooked into a gripping part (6) of said upright (3) and a locking arrangement (19) switchable between a locking position and a release position. Further, the locking arrangement (19) comprises a pivotally attached first clamping part (20) and a wedge-shaped locking part (21), which is slidable between a locking position and a release position. The wedge-shaped locking part (21) is arranged to push the first clamping part (20) towards said upright (3) and said gripping part (6) by means of wedge action. Moreover, the first clamping part (20) comprises two transversally spaced apart side parts (20a, 20b) which jointly define a cavity (27) there between. The first clamping part (20) is arranged externally on said hook-shaped coupling part (7), and is arranged partly within said cavity (27). Further, each of the side parts (20a, 20b) comprises fastening means (29) for pivotal attachment of said first clamping part (20) to said hook-shaped coupling part (7).
