Description:
The two most important features of Precision’s SL series Ships Ladders are ease of installation and no maintenance. The relative weight of these units compared to a steel unit makes it much easier to install, and its aluminum construction makes it virtually maintenance free. A Ships Ladder with walk-thru is an ideal solution for mezzanine and catwalk access. When accessing a roof deck from the interior of a building consider combining Precision Ladders’ Roof Hatch and Extend-A-Rail, ladder safety post. This gives architects, engineers and contractors the option of a complete roof access system from a single manufactured source. Another type of Ships Ladder configuration is a Crossover Ships Ladder, which can be a great option when climbing over conveyer lines, pipes, roof top air ducts, or when accessing a high roof from a lower roof over a parapet.
Some important characteristics of these ladders are:
o All components shall be aluminum alloy 6005-T5
o Fully welded construction is used throughout. The treads are both welded and fastened with stainless steel hardware for an over-engineered product.
o Stringers are 5" x 2" x 3/16" aluminum channel
o Treads are from the same extrusion used on our Super Simplex Disappearing Stairway, 5-3/16" x 1-1/4" x 1/8" extruded channel with deeply serrated surface to maximize traction.
o Standard 30" clear width provides a 26” inside tread width.
o Handrails are 1-1/2" diameter schedule 40 pipe (1.6” OD)
o Mill finish aluminum
o Available in pitches from 60 degrees to 75 degrees.
Available as options:
o Wider tread widths up to 48" maximum
o Other finishes: power coat, anodized
o Other tread materials: bar grating, checkered plate and Anti-Slip grit plate.

| Are any Hazardous Air Pollutants (as defined by EPA) created, used, or released during the manufacture of the product? | Yes No | ||||||||
|
Are any hazardous chemicals created, used, or released during the manufacture of the product which must be reported under the State Right to Know Act (SARA), Section 313 via the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI)? (The absence of hazardous chemicals or air pollutants in manufacture is laudable. However the presence of such hazards is not a simple indicator of environmental impact. Which listed hazards are present, how they are handled, the magnitude of emissions, and the extent and effectiveness of efforts to minimize creation, use, and releases of such hazards, are all important in assessing environmental responsibility. While it can be problematic to try to compare the performance of different companies, a record of TRI releases by company found on the EPA website allows review of a single company over time. http://www.epa.gov/enviro/html/tris/tris_query.html) |
