Manufacturers of 75' platforms

[Dudley]

Does anyone other than Suptphen, ALF, and Seagrave (Aerialscope) manufacture NFPA compliant platforms less than 76'?

Metz (Rosenbauer) makes a 65'.

[PBCOMMISH]

Toyne makes a 75'

Doesn't Sutphen offer up something in that package?

Sutphen dose offer 75's Only problem....in my opinion.....is the design of how the bucket hangs over the rear. There are a few in my area and many of those few have whacked their bucket off of anything from thier firehouse, to smacking it off the ground while accending a steep grade. I'm not saying that it's Sutphens fault by any means....it's obviously a case of "knowing your rig" but it's still something to think about.

Sorry Dudley, I only scanned your message and didn't see you had already listed Sutphen.

RK does a 75' platform, which means Alexis, Toyne, and Rosenbauer can build it for you, among others.

While I'm not a big KME fan, their MM platform functionality is beautiful. In 2005-6 we had too many reliability questions to really consider them a final contender, but the bucket design is great, the 90 degree to the sidewalk test is unbeatable, manual stick controlled gun- no problem, and the scrub area is about the best.

Say Woodbridge,You DID mean 43 (') didn't you? An 81 at 43" would be ****ah! Hehe T.C.

not to be too big of a jerk, but the Sutphen platform is actually a 70', not a 75'.
