Unmatched Safety Features
Constructed from premium-grade fibreglass, the NGFBB12 provides complete electrical insulation, making it the perfect choice for electricians, telecom technicians, and anyone working near live circuits.

- Reinforced spreader bars with positive locking mechanism
- 360° non-slip end caps for secure placement on all surfaces
- Bright safety yellow rails with reflective warning labels
- Exceeds EN131-2 standards with 150kg maximum load rating
Professional-Grade Construction
The NGFBB12 utilizes military-grade fibreglass composite that outperforms traditional materials:
Material | Advantages | Comparison to Alternatives |
---|---|---|
Fibreglass | Non-conductive, weatherproof, chemical resistant | Safer than aluminum near electricity |
Reinforced joints | Double-riveted connections | More durable than plastic components |
UV-stabilized | Won't degrade in sunlight | Longer lifespan than standard fibreglass |
