Spider® ST-180 Basket

A self-contained, single line unit, the ST-180 features a working swath of 8 feet. Adding flydecks enlarges the ST-180 to 14 ft, accommodating two workers to double productivity. Contractors can add modular platforms or plank sections between two ST-180s to form a double line suspended scaffold. With modular sections, workers can quickly connect sections without special tools to create a maximum reachable working swath of 56 or 62 ft with flydecks attached. The unit comes equipped with numerous safety devices to ensure safe operation.
