SL 100 Aerial Ladder

The SL 100 is a 100-foot straight stick aerial ladder built for departments that demand strength, reach, and rapid deployment. With a rugged five-section ladder, 3:1 safety factor, and huck-bolted construction, the SL 100 delivers exceptional reliability for both rescue operations and water movement. A 1,000 lb dry and 500 lb wet tip load ensures crews have the capacity and confidence to perform under pressure.

Its midmount design, short wheelbase, and low overall height give the SL 100 superior maneuverability, even in tight urban environments. A single set of out-and-down outriggers allows for quick, efficient setup without compromising stability. Purpose-built for real-world challenges, the SL 100 reflects Sutphen’s dedication to performance, safety, and innovation.
