DELTARAIL HANDRAIL SYSTEMS


DeltaRail fiberglass handrail systems meet your requirements, from small platforms to complex structures, with high-strength, maintenance-free handrails that are ideal for any location.

Perfect for a Wide Range of Applications

AIMS offers two DeltaRail handrail systems that meet a variety of needs: Standard Duty and Heavy Duty. No matter the severity of your service environment, there’s an AIMS Fiberglass Handrail System for you.

For complex handrail solutions, AIMS has the capability to design, manufacture, and fabricate a custom fiberglass reinforced polymer system. For less complicated projects, we can provide easy-to-assemble kits for cost-effective installations.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS


PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
UNIQUE SOLUTIONS TO MEET YOUR NEEDS

AIMS' in-house engineering and drafting capabilities ensure that custom projects meet customer specifications with quality and accuracy for every phase: design, fabrication, and installation. With the advantage of 3-D structural analysis, quality performance and structural integrity is guaranteed.

MODULAR KITS MAKE DO-IT-YOURSELF EASY

For projects that don’t require design services, easy-to-assemble modular kits are available. These low-cost systems include everything needed for a quality construction. Minimal assembly skills and common hand tools are all that’s required for installation.

CODE COMPLIANT

All DeltaRail Handrail Systems meet or exceed the following specifications and/or building codes:

  • BOCA Basic Building Code, Section 1615.8
  • National Building Code, Section 403-407
  • OSHA, Section 1910.23
  • Southern Building Code, Section 1207.2
  • Uniform Building Code, Section 16
DELTARAIL CIRCULAR HANDRAIL

Developed for tank and vessel manufacturers, the DeltaRail Circular Handrail is a prefabricated fiberglass reinforced polymer handrail system that arrives ready to be mounted. It eliminates traditional segmented circular systems and the field fabrication and installation problems associated with them.

Standard sizes are available for 8', 10', 12', 14', and 16' tank diameters. Our handrail is manufactured one foot shorter than the outside diameter of the tank; custom diameters are available. The DeltaRail Circular Handrail is designed to meet or exceed all the requirements of OSHA, Section 1910.23.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, BENEFITS AND FEATURES:

AIMS' corrosion-resistant fiberglass products are found throughout the world in a variety of applications and industries where safety, low maintenance costs, easy installation, and long service life are essential.

CORROSION RESISTANT

Unlike conventional metals, AIMS products eliminate the rusting and corrosion problems associated with traditional materials. A proven pultrusion process, which combines fiberglass and proprietary resins, creates a durable and safer structure that outlasts metal and offers a significantly lower life cycle cost. Additionally, special ultraviolet inhibitors included in the formulation provide extra protection from the effects of weathering.

EASY TO INSTALL, EASY TO MAINTAIN

There’s no need for heavy equipment or expensive tools since AIMS handrail and ladder systems are less than half the weight of steel. Lighter weight means lower shipping costs and less manpower for installation. With no scraping, sandblasting, or painting required, they are virtually maintenance-free.

STRONG AND DURABLE

Pound for pound, fiberglass is stronger than steel. Plus, when designed to certain load-response criteria, fiberglass reinforced polymer material will weigh one-third to one-half of its steel counterpart. Our handrails and ladders get their strength from a high percentage of glass within the laminate, providing durability, high unidirectional strength, and stiffness.

NON-CONDUCTIVE AND FIRE RETARDENT

AIMS handrails and ladders are electronically and thermally nonconductive, and are fire retardant for a safer work environment. Our products meet the self-extinguishing requirements of ASTM E-84, and have a Class 1 flame spread rating of 25 or less. Because our systems are non-metallic, electromagnetic and radio wave frequencies are completely unaffected.

A VARIETY OF COLOR CHOICES

The standard color for our handrails and ladders is Safety Yellow, but any system can be custom ordered to your specific color requirements.

Quality Assurance

All AIMS handrail and ladder systems are manufactured under a strict quality control program. This program coincides with our mission to offer the highest quality FRP products and services and to continue to excel in research and development for new products.

SAFE SHIPPING

All orders are carefully secured and shipped on dedicated trucks to ensure on-time, damage-free delivery.
