Available from Spacepac are 3 portable versatile solutions for tank truck and railcar access:
#TC6 - Mobile Truck and Railcar Platforms Offers protection and security with a larger cage system on top and has a heavy duty base unit.
#TC8 - Freestanding Mobile Platforms Designed to be used by just one person. The light-weight but super-duty construction along with the unique wheel design allows this unit to be moved easily by one person.
#TTX - Mobile Truck Access Unit Has a smaller cage unit on top and a smaller base - it is used only for tank truck access.
Like the TC6 and TC8 access platforms, the TTX Mobile Truck Access Platform also provides protection and security with a safety cage system on top and has a heavy duty base unit.
“Both the ladder and access platform are constructed from aluminum with a galvanized steel constructed base. For added security, the walk surface on base and platform are made slip resistant.” commented by Spacepac.
