Product Description

It may look like a standard stepladder, but it’s so much more than that. The MicroBurst® from Little Giant Ladder Systems® has features that are unique to this model of ladder. - STABILIZED STEPLADDER - With its patent-pending Stable Lock™ spreader system made from a high-strength steel alloy; the MicroBurst gives you the stability needed to complete any task with confidence. On a typical stepladder, the spreader bar is weak, allowing the ladder to “walk” or shift, but on Little Giant’s MicroBurst, the Stable Lock spreader is strong, allowing you to set up the ladder and work in confidence. - LIGHTWEIGHT AND EASY TO STORE - Made from lightweight, non-conductive fiberglass, the MicroBurst can safely be used in a variety of situations. The fiberglass rails fit neatly inside each other, creating a slim, 3.5” storage and carrying profile, making it easier than ever to carry or store your stepladder. - SPECS - This ladder meets or exceeds all OSHA and ANSI standards, and is available with a Type IA rating to hold 300 lbs. and a Type IAA rating to hold 375 lbs. It can be purchased in a 3’, 4’, 6’ and 8’ sizes.

From the Manufacturer

At first glance, the 8-foot MicroBurst fiberglass stepladder from Little Giant Ladder Systems looks like a traditional A-frame stepladder, but there is nothing traditional about it. The MicroBurst's unique Fold-Flat technology and patent-pending StableLock spreader system fundamentally change the standard stepladder model. As the top cap pivots, the MicroBurst's rails fit neatly inside each other, creating a slim, 3-1/2-Inch storage and carrying profile. The MicroBurst stores in nearly half the space and is more stable than a comparable Type IA (300 lbs) stepladder. The MicroBurst's StableLock spreader system locks securely in place, creating a solid A-frame structure with no room for shifting or walking. On typical A-frame stepladders, the spreader bars are the most important, yet weakest part of the ladder. On the MicroBurst, the spreader system is the strongest part of the ladder, constructed of a high-strength steel alloy. Also, unlike most A-frame stepladders, the MicroBurst's patent-pending design makes room for a wide flare on both sides of the ladder, significantly increasing lateral stability. It's easier to carry, store, and set-up; and it's stronger and safer than any other comparable A-frame ladder. The MicroBurst 15710-001, a Type IA (300 lbs) extra heavy duty rated stepladder, is constructed of a strong yet lightweight non-conductive fiberglass resin, making it safer to use in electrical applications.
