Danger when accessing overhead tankers
Every day, employees climb narrow stairs to the top of tankers and rail cars. Once they arrive, a weak handrail on one side, is often the only support. One misstep can lead to serious injury, production downtime and high costs. In bad weather, the likelihood of this becomes even greater.
Safe with the multifit folding staircase F1
With F1, you work safely and comfortably. From the platform, you walk via the folding stairs with non-slip steps and sturdy hand rails to the top of the tanker or rail car. With the 3-ring safety cage, you are directly in an enclosed work area where you can carry out your work without worry. The multifit F1 is cleverly designed for use in fixed locations. The variation in the position of the folding ladder and the number of steps makes the F1 suitable for all tanker equipment: from low tankers to high rail wagons.
The benefits
- Robust and low-maintenance design
- Comfortable staircase with non-slip steps
- Easy to operate
- Do not rest on top of tanker
- Safety cage, all-round protection
