Performance and Innovation

Led by one of the industry's leading experts, Crimson Fire Aerials delivers innovative aerial products that meet the needs of your department.


Improved Performance

Our patented ladder lift cradle feature and exclusive X-style outriggers deliver increased stability and improved performance.

/uploadedImages/Products/Product_List/Aerial_Pictures/Aerial_OutriggerMotion_400_300.jpgX-style outriggers allow you to level the apparatus on slopes of up to 15 degrees.  

 

/uploadedImages/Products/Product_List/Aerial_Pictures/Aerial_lift-cradle_400_300.jpgThe patented lift cradle allows you to position the ladder 10 degrees below the horizon. We’ve also built in more standing room and better visibility for the turntable operator.

Decreased Maintenance

/uploadedImages/Products/Product_List/Aerial_Pictures/Aerial_rasp_assembly_400_300.jpgCrimson has the only true "greaseless" ladder in the industry, thanks to our roller-assisted slide design. Our exclusive and patented roller assembly system provides for exceptionally smooth ladder extension and retraction. We’ve eliminated the slide pads and grease, which makes it a breeze when it comes to maintenance.

/uploadedImages/Products/Product_List/Aerial_Pictures/Aerial-dual-swing-drives_800_300.jpgAn improvement on 'old school' single drives, Crimson was the first to utilize Dual Swing Drives to provide smooth rotation and less backlash.  We even took it a step further and gave you access to adjust and maintain by simply removing the top cover from the turn table!

More Benefits

We load the features into each Crimson aerial – and that means extra benefits for you.

/uploadedImages/Products/Product_List/Aerial_Pictures/Aerial_Travel_Rest_Cradle_300_400.jpgTravel and Rest Cradle: We utilize our exclusive Vibra-Torque® mounting system for the travel and rest cradle, which allows the body to “float” above the chassis. By adding engineered spring and rubber assemblies before mounting the body to the chassis, we reduce vibration and stress on the cradle and ladder structures.

 

 

/uploadedImages/Products/Product_List/Aerial_Pictures/Aerial_Smart_Hose_Loader_400_300.jpgSmart Hose Loader: Our exclusive side storage bed accommodates up to 1,000 feet of five-inch hose while our rear-storage bed can handle up to 400 feet of three-inch hose. Both are easily accessible from the ground.

The bottom line isn’t always about price.  There were a half-dozen parameters, as well as overall quality of the product and customer service, which came into the equation.  We were very pleased to select Crimson to supply our new aerials.
