Aluminium Cat ladder
An aluminum cat ladder is a lightweight, durable, and corrosion-resistant ladder designed for safe access to hard-to-reach areas, typically on rooftops, industrial installations, or confined spaces. It is called a "cat ladder" because of its narrow, compact design, allowing it to fit into tight spaces like a cat would.
Features of an Aluminum Cat Ladder:
Material: Made of aluminum, offering high strength, corrosion resistance, and lightweight properties, making it ideal for outdoor and industrial use.
Design:
Narrow and slim to fit restricted spaces.
Open rungs or anti-slip steps for secure footing.
May include safety hoops or guardrails for vertical applications.
Mounting Options:
Fixed: Bolted to walls, rooftops, or structures for permanent use.
Portable: Easy to move and reposition as needed.
Non-Slip Surface:
Rungs often feature anti-slip grooves or perforations to enhance grip in wet or hazardous conditions.
Lightweight:
Easy to install and handle due to aluminum's low weight.
Common Applications:
Rooftop Access: For maintenance or inspection work on buildings.
Industrial Plants: To access machinery, tanks, or elevated structures.
Shipyards and Marine Use: Durable enough to withstand salty and humid environments.
Construction Sites: Temporary access to elevated workspaces.
