Lighter Overall Weight:  Sutphen Aerial Apparatus typically have an in service weight 10-20 Tons less than our competition.  Don’t be mistaken though, lighter weight doesn’t mean lighter duty.  What lighter weight does mean is better acceleration, better breaking with shorter stopping distance, and less wear and tear on your brakes and brake components which reduces maintenance costs.

The Strongest Aerial Device in the Industry:  Constructed using #6061-T6 aluminum alloy and fastened with aircraft grade HuckBolt technology, the aerial has a safety factor of 3:1, unmatched in the industry.  The HuckBolt system eliminates the need for welds.  Welding weakens the material, making it susceptible to cracking.

Lower Aerial Maintenance:  The aluminum aerial device never needs painted, and won’t rust.  Aerial slide blocks are constructed from Ultra High Molecular Weight Plastic that requires little to no maintenance.

Fast and Easy Set Up:  From the time you arrive on scene, the Sutphen Aerial can be set up and in the air in quickly.  The fastest and most efficient set up time in the industry.  All necessary control stations, eg: Cab, Jacks, Pump, and Turntable, are located within 6’ of each other.

Heavy Duty Body:  The Sutphen body is constructed from corrosion resistant #304 Stainless Steel.  Body compartments are bolted together for strength and ease of repair.  Body compartments are tall and deep providing ample storage space for rescue tools and other bulky equipment, as well as tool mounting boards, shelves, trays, etc.

Heavy Duty Cab Interior:  Cab interiors are well appointed and very durable.  Stainless steel door panels are standard, and heavy duty Durawear material covers the headliner and back wall.  Bostrom Secure-All ABTS SCBA seats Durawear covered seats are standard.

Multiple Seating Configurations: Cab and interior configurations available to accommodate anywhere from 6 to 10 personnel all while still maintaining a “full tilt” cab.
