Werner 18 Ft. Type IA Fiberglass Twin Ladder

Description

Commercial HVAC ductwork installations require dual-worker access on a single rigid platform. The Werner 18 Ft. Type IA Fiberglass Twin Ladder delivers an 18-foot working height rated for 300 lbs per side. You access high ceilings with secure dual footing. However, this massive 105-pound ladder requires substantial cargo van space.

Werner builds this twin step ladder with non-conductive fiberglass side rails and heavy-gauge aluminum steps on both sides. A molded aluminum top cap holds tools and hardware. The steps feature serrated Traction-Tred slip-resistant aluminum profiles connected via heavy-duty internal steel spreaders. EDGE molded bracing provides enhanced damage protection to the base. The massive 105-pound structure demands two-person handling during tight commercial jobsite positioning.

Key Features of Werner Twin

Equip your commercial construction crews with this massive twin step ladder to handle electrical drops and HVAC installations in high-bay warehouses. Direct wholesale pricing ensures contractors maintain OSHA-compliant climbing gear.

• A 300-pound Type IA duty rating supports heavy workers carrying tool belts on both sides of the Twin Ladder.
• Non-conductive fiberglass side rails protect electricians from high-voltage shock hazards on the 18 Ft. frame.
• The 18-foot height provides safe access for commercial 22-foot ceiling installations.
• Twin-step design allows two workers to climb simultaneously from opposite sides.
• Traction-Tred aluminum steps provide slip-resistant footing in dusty work environments.
• Internal steel spreaders prevent ladder collapse during heavy dynamic loading.
• EDGE molded bracing protects the bottom rail from impact damage.

Dynamic Load Testing Telemetry

Load testing confirms the structural fiberglass rails and aluminum steps withstand 300 lbs of static downward pressure per side without deflection or rivet failure. Electrical insulation telemetry verifies zero current transfer across the fiberglass rails at 25000 volts. The internal steel spreaders lock out to provide a stable 125-inch base spread, preventing lateral tipping under dynamic side-loading. The Traction-Tred steps maintain a 0.85 coefficient of friction under wet and dusty conditions, preventing boot slippage during rapid ascent. Base pad compression testing shows zero deformation under full load on concrete.

Field Operation Usability Directives

Workers unfold the massive ladder using two-person coordination and lock the internal steel spreaders down before climbing to the work height. The twin-step design allows a second worker to assist from the opposite side. Do not stand on the top cap, overreach beyond the fiberglass side rails, or use this step ladder on uneven ground.

• Inspect the Type IA fiberglass side rails for cracks or delamination before each work shift.
• Check aluminum step rivets and spreader hinges for tightness every 30 days.
• Wipe grease and mud off the Traction-Tred steps after each use.
