CRAMER
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about CRAMER from 3G Electric.
What is the load capacity of CRAMER round rolling step stools?
CRAMER round rolling step stools in 3G Electric's catalog are available with load capacities of 300 lb or 350 lb. Models rated to 350 lb are typically designated ANSI Type IA. The load capacity is a critical specification for matching the stool to the user and task. For example, the CRAMER 1001-19 has a 350 lb capacity, while the 50011PK-82 has a 300 lb capacity. Buyers should verify the required capacity based on user weight and any tools or materials being carried. The load rating is marked on the product and should not be exceeded.
Are CRAMER step stools folding or non-folding?
The CRAMER round rolling step stools listed by 3G Electric are non-folding. This fixed design provides a rigid platform and is intended for locations where the stool remains in place or is moved via casters. Folding models are available in other CRAMER product families, such as folding step stools, but the round rolling stools in this catalog do not fold. The non-folding construction contributes to stability and durability. For applications requiring portability or compact storage, consider CRAMER folding models or stackable plastic versions like the 50011PK-82.
What is the standing height of CRAMER round rolling step stools?
Most CRAMER round rolling step stools in 3G Electric's catalog have a standing height of 14.3 inches. The overall height is typically 14.5 inches, with some models at 15 inches. This standing height is suitable for reaching low shelves, work surfaces, or performing maintenance tasks that require a modest elevation. The two-step design allows users to step up safely. Buyers should confirm the standing height meets their access needs, as it determines the reachable height when combined with the user's reach. Models with different step counts or heights are available in the broader CRAMER line.
What materials are CRAMER step stools made from?
CRAMER step stools are constructed from steel or plastic, depending on the model. Steel models, such as the 1001-19 and 1001-01, offer durability for industrial environments. Plastic models, like the 50011PK-82, are lighter and may be stackable. Finishes include powder-coated colors such as tan, white, silver, black, red, and gray. The choice of material affects weight, portability, and resistance to corrosion. Steel is generally preferred for heavy-duty use, while plastic can be suitable for lighter tasks or where non-conductivity is desired. Both types feature slip-resistant feet for stability.
Do CRAMER step stools have slip-resistant features?
Yes, CRAMER round rolling step stools typically include slip-resistant plastic feet. These feet provide grip on smooth surfaces and help prevent the stool from sliding during use. The feet are a standard feature on the models listed by 3G Electric, including the 1001-19, 1001-14, and 1001-01. Slip resistance is important for user safety, especially in areas where floors may be polished or slightly wet. The feet are replaceable in many cases, extending the service life of the stool. Buyers should inspect feet regularly and replace them if worn.
Can CRAMER step stools be used in warehouses and stockrooms?
CRAMER round rolling step stools are designed for use in warehouses, stockrooms, and maintenance areas. Their two-step design and 14.3-inch standing height make them suitable for reaching low shelves, picking stock, or accessing work surfaces. The rolling feature allows them to be moved easily between locations. The load capacity of 300 lb or 350 lb supports most users and light tools. The slip-resistant feet provide stability on concrete or sealed floors. These stools are not intended for high-level access; for higher reaches, consider CRAMER rolling ladders. 3G Electric supplies these stools to industrial facilities globally.
