DICA - Outrigger Pad

Hultgren Tree Prefers The DICA Difference!

Posted 01.29.2011

My name is Jahn Hultgren, and I have been in the Tree Care Industry for 25 years, since 1986. I would like to recommend DICA outrigger pads as the premium pads in the industry. I have tried competitor pads, and the DICA pads are lighter in weight, easier to use, and are basically indestructible compared to competitor pads. My oldest DICA pads have outperformed the newest competitor pads hands down.

As you can see from the picture, competitor pads cam shatter and break under repeated stress. I have never lost a DICA pad to breakage no matter the stress or abuse. In my opinion, if you want to spend your money wisely, buy a DICA pad if you want a product that will last as long as you are in business.

I support DICA products because they are basically indestructible, and because they are a family business that stands behind their work. When considering an outrigger pad for your Company, do yourself a favor, buy from DICA.

Sincerely,

We have been using the DICA Outrigger Pads for many years , and actually specify them on our new digger and aerial trucks. We also use them under the landing gear on our mobile substation trailers. They work very well for many of our applications and we have no issues at this time.

Utility Fleet Managers Information

Posted 07.23.2010

Reducing injuries caused by lifting heavy and awkward objects is an important goal for Utility Fleet Managers. So is providing stability for aerial equipment and cranes. Doing both improves job safety and performance. The question of course is:

“How?”
The answer is to choose an outrigger pad that is lightweight, durable and provides reliable stability.

Safety Tech Outrigger Pads by DICA are the foundation for the setup of specialized equipment using outriggers. Because our Safety Tech Pads are manufactured using engineered plastic, they have the strength and durability you need and come standard with industry leading safety features such as: safety texturing, radius edges, rounded corners and safety handles. They are also non-conductive, moisture and chemical resistant and are easy to clean.

Did we mention they’re guaranteed for life?
Yep. Every Safety Tech Padcomes with a lifetime guarantee. Compared with the high cost of replacing outrigger pads that are heavy and awkward, Safety Tech Pads are a long term financial and safety asset for you and your company.

At DICA, we seek to provide safety, performance and value because it’s the right thing to do and the thing you do everyday.
