Basic description

Folding roof hook, as an optional component of the high-quality fire ladder F-100 and FE-100, suitable as part of firefighting equipment, directly from the manufacturer and leader in the field of firefighting ladders - JUST Leitern AG. The company has been on the market for more than 130 years. It manufactures these special ladders in accordance with the European standard, but also meets other standards (German or British). A manufacturer and supplier that constantly promotes new product developments in order to optimize them for all kinds of rescue actions and operations.

Multifunctional and extendable ladder with lightweight construction, of which this holder is an accessory, will not get lost in the work of professionals. The sturdy construction, excellent stability and versatile use ensure comfortable and safe access to elevated areas. It is the perfect companion for rescue or firefighting work. A maximum safe load, to comply with standards, of up to 2 persons is possible.

Certification

The ladder is manufactured and certified to meet the German DIN 1 standard and the European standard EN 1147.

DIN is a protected designation of German national technical standards. In the case of DIN 1, this refers to the requirements for tapered pins - unforged.

European Standard EN 1147 specifies requirements, test methods and design criteria for portable ladders for use by fire and rescue services and similar purposes. The tests specified in this European Standard are type tests, not periodic tests. Non-portable ladders for use by fire and rescue services are not covered by this standard.

Advantages of the multifunctional ladder

The multifunctional/combinable ladder is typical of its unique design for a variety of uses. It combines both a support ladder and a freestanding ladder (it is necessary to use a connecting platform that joins the 2 base parts or 1 base and 1 connecting part in the upper part to copy the A-shape). But it can also be used thanks to its ability to be extended. In combination with the roof hook it will take the place of a roof ladder, a temporary light pillar, an emergency bridge or a hose line/hose bridge. It is ideal for emergency vehicles with limited space capacity. It has the exceptional ability to be built up from multiple parts to achieve the desired height. To secure the position during height staggering, manually lockable steel safety couplings/anchors are used. They ensure that the individual parts remain connected during use. They are manufactured in an extremely strong design. This ensures comfortable folding of the ladder and firm anchoring of the individual parts.

The biggest advantage is, of course, the ability to extend the ladder, i.e. to extend the ladder when used as a freestanding ladder - both as a step ladder and as a supporting/inclined ladder. In both cases, it can be assembled in several parts. When folded, this makes it easier to move around the workplace, to transport by car and to store.

The individual parts

In this case, it is a separate attachment part - a folding roof hook that can be assembled with other parts to form a complete F-100 or FE-100 multifunction ladder. The hook is equipped with movable castors that are installed as part of its construction. They are used for easy and comfortable movement of the upper part of the ladder along the wall when extending and extending the ladder. The roof hook can be easily fitted or, for larger orders, can be pre-fitted.

The folding roof hook can therefore be added to the Type F-100 to create a complete model:

• base part type F-105, in combination with the long connection part type F-101
• a short 2-section connection section with or withoutstabilising bar type F-102 type F-103

To create a complete model type FE-100can be purchased:

• base part type FE-105, in combination with a long connecting part type FE-106
• a short 2-section connecting part with or withoutstabilising bar type FE-102 type FE-107

Basic construction material and its quality

The quality of the material and workmanship of the ladder will exceed your expectations. The entire ladder is made of high quality alloy aluminium (aluminium with various admixtures to achieve the required mechanical properties) from a specially designed double-sided welded design. The reinforced square rungs, up to 28 mm thick, have replaceable insulating plastic covers on them with an embossed surface design with anti-slip properties for even greater safety, stability and comfortable climbing, or to facilitate any standing on the ladder when working at any height. The rungs are welded into the milled beams to ensure a secure hold. Not a single detail or defect must be overlooked in the manufacture of the ladder.

Connecting technology

The rungs are welded to the beams using CMT technology - a cold welding process to achieve the highest possible quality. Compared to conventional welding, CMT works with very little heat input and an extremely stable arc.

Weathering

By using high quality alloy aluminium material and careful processing/welding of the complete ladder structure, considerable resistance to weather conditions has been achieved. Due to the material properties, the ladder cannot rust even if it is left standing in direct rain or exposed to other water elements for long periods of time. There is thus no risk of damage or wear and tear.
