DICA Technology
FiberTech® Technology
DICA's FiberTech® Crane Pads use advanced Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composites engineered for superior load distribution and major weight savings over traditional steel or aluminum pads. Continuous fiber reinforcement paired with optimized polymer combinations delivers:
-
Lightweight design: up to 50% lighter than steel alternatives while holding maximum strength
-
Corrosion and fatigue resistance: engineered to hold up in harsh environments without degrading
-
Cost efficiency: a higher upfront cost offset by lower maintenance and a longer service life
-
Enhanced performance: a strong stiffness-to-weight and strength-to-weight ratio for stable, reliable support
SafetyTech® Technology
DICA's SafetyTech® Outrigger Pads are built for reliable support across a range of applications. Made from proprietary engineered thermoplastic, they're designed to hold their shape and integrity through years of heavy use.
Key features of SafetyTech technology:
-
Engineered strength: maximum rigidity and load distribution without physical or functional failure
-
Ergonomic handles: DICA's TuffGrip® handles are built for durability and easy, comfortable handling
-
Built for strict-standard environments: SafetyTech pads are used by government agencies, nuclear energy facilities, and other industries with demanding safety requirements
