Aluminum Truck Gangways

Safe Harbor can custom fabricate truck and railcar gangways in various materials, such as aluminum, stainless steel, and galvanized steel. For loading gangways in industrial and commercial marine settings, Safe Harbor recommends the use of marine-grade aluminum. Several benefits of aluminum truck gangways include:

• Lightweight & durablity
• Lower maintenance requirements
• Ideal for loading, unloading, and inspecting & repairing vessels
• Excellent corrosion resistance
