A product catalog for those who work waaay up

By Paul Dvorak | February 3, 2012

Learn more about platforms such as this one in a recent catalog from SafeWorks LLC.

Spider, a division of SafeWorks, LLC, announced the release of the 4th edition of its Spider Solutions Catalog, a comprehensive product catalog for the suspended-access industry. Celebrating the company’s 65th anniversary this year, the company says it has updated in-depth product information including key features, specifications, drawings, photographs, codes & regulations, and accessory lists. New features in this 320+ page reference guide include new products, such as:

  • A Wind Turbine Access section highlights new products for wind-turbine maintenance and repair, including blade and tower access platforms and an innovative, reconfigurable 360° blade-access platform
  • New rigging devices that add capabilities and shorten rigging time
  • A new application of the LSR1 as a fall arrest anchorage

Also in-depth case studies tell how Spider solves demanding access challenges. Updated bilingual tear-out rental equipment guides help users visually identify items on site. “Now more than ever, contractors and facility owners need safe, reliable solutions that lower the total cost of access in this age of tighter budgets,” says company VP John Sotiroff. “With new products that deliver this efficiency and still more useful tools to wring the most value out of our solutions, Spider is proud to add this new desktop reference guide to our extensive tool box.” Catalogs can be requested or downloaded online at www.spiderstaging.com, or by calling 877-774-3370.
