Glass Fibre Swingback Stepladders - 5 Tread
The Light Trade Fibreglass Swingback Steps are certified to BS EN131 standard and are ideal for use where electrical hazards exist as they are non-conductive.
A unique strengthening beam incorporated into non-slip aluminium treads, rubber feet and aluminium side arms prevents slips and twists as there are no tapes to snap, or flimsy arms to break. The first tread is low down giving strength and rigidity to the stiles. The treads are double riveted front and back.
Rigid box section back legs with additional cross braces and 'k' straps for increased strength and stability. Back legs are also reinforced. N.B This applies to 10 and 12 tread models ONLY.
In addition, the Light Trade Glass Fibre Steps are also lightweight and easy to carry. A plastic tool tray to hold tools and equipment while working is also provided.

Key Benefits of Glass Fibre Ladders
Glass fibre ladders have excellent chemical and corrosion resistance and unmatched impact resistance providing long term durability in demanding environments. They are insulated and non-conductive when in use eliminating electrical and thermal hazards, electronically transparent which means that they will not affect electromagnetic or radio frequencies and slip resistant improving safety and reducing slips and falls. Like other ladders they need little ongoing attention or maintenance, apart from frequent safety inspections, and life cycle costs compare favourably against most ladder types.
