Ergonomic Ladder - SKYLAX
Standard
"Ergonomic" means the product regards the psycho-physical limits of
a person. Possible criteria of an ergonomic ladder are:
- low weight (less than 20 kg)
- large steps (surface at least 0.07 m2)
- steps/treads laterally open and not closed by rails
- self-locking positioning
- positioning without instruction
- colour design
Rails and Treads made of Aluminium
- low density = light weight (one third the density of steel)
- high specific strength (strength to weight ratio)
Resistance to corrosion - remember: It takes approximately 9 to 10
Kilowatt hours of electricity to make each pound of aluminium.
Completely Anodized Aluminium
(7-10 micron)
| - |
The most common form of anodizing is sulphuric acid anodizing which
offers an anodic film thickness between 3 and 25 microns. |
| - |
Ladder profiles and ladder treads are anodized by placing them in an
acid solution, applying a voltage and artificially growing their own oxide
to an even controlled thickness. Anodic film thickness is not a surface
coating, but is integral with the metal so a cut through it will not allow
corrosion. |
| - |
Anodizing seals the ladder from oxidation. |
| - |
Improves the aluminium's corrosion resistance. |
| - |
Hardens the surface. |
| - |
Keeps the ladder clean and makes cleaning of the surface easier. |
| - |
Permits the ladder to be used in food and drug industry, and in sectors
with high cleaning standards. |
