Greater horizontal outreach can be obtained using telescopic booms rather than any other type of aerial platform. These machines are great for places which provide limited access in construction and industrial situations.
Telescopic booms have reach capacities ranging from 31 feet 8 inches or 9.65 meters to 80 feet and 24.38 meters. These models provide working height up to 14.20 meters or 46 feet to 131 feet 2 inches or 40.15 meters. Telescopic boom classification normally includes a reference to the platform height of the boom in order to know the equipment's capacity.

Even though the equipment are made big enough to reach higher, they are still compact enough to fit great within confined areas. The positive traction system and the full-time oscillating axle offered by the rough-terrain models enable the rugged jobsites to be handled with ease and precision. Additionally, some specialized models provide extendable axles that retract for easy transportation and offer stability. There are various diesel engine choices offered on the market too.
