F-35 Lightning II Maintenance Platform

Resilient F-35 phase style maintenance platforms for enhanced worker safety

The F-35 Maintenance Platform was designed with direct input from Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II service technicians. Featuring high-strength lightweight aluminum construction, the F-35 platform exceeds OSHA requirements. The platform offers full fall protection and enhanced worker safety without obstructing the maintenance process. As with all FlexDecks Phase Style Platforms, the F-35 platforms are easily mobilized when necessary and securely lock in place during the maintenance procedures.

The F-35 Phase Maintenance Platform enables a maintenance bay to facilitate complete fall protection to technicians servicing all areas of the aircraft. The platform is a totally OSHA-compliant high strength, lightweight aluminum with a rugged, structural design.

This platform’s load rating is confirmed using finite element analysis method. F-35 Phase Maintenance Platforms are designed for easy maneuverability and can be separated from the other components for hangar/facility replacement storage.

OSHA Compliant

FlexDecks Maintenance Stands are constructed from light weight, high-strength structural grade 6061 aluminum and feature self-draining, anti-slip and anti-bounce 5052 aluminum Safety Treads, that are OSHA compliance, omni-directional and self-correcting. All welded designs are in accordance with AWS D1.1 & D1.2. Each design features load ratings. FlexDecks Stands provide complete OSHA compliance for fall protection during maintenance procedures.

Quick Assembly

Modular, easy assemble/ disassemble platform decks feature bracing systems that allow for 1/3 less setup time.

Versatility

The maintenance bay can be utilized as a wraparound bay or tail and side access.

Our mobile work platforms can be designed to suit any requirement where off-the-shelf fabricated platforms are not practical, and ladders or towers are inappropriate.

Auto-Lock Sliders

Easy, quick and safe Auto-Lock Sliders located around all points of the aircraft offer profile conformity from top or bottom of stand and are engineered for weight load stability Each slider end is outfitted with heavy duty rubber bumpers to protect aircraft/land vehicle skin. Made of the same anti-slip, anti-bounce OSHA compliant extrusion. Each individual slider can be easily repositioned for more precise aircraft profile conformity.

connections

Electrical and air line connections conveniently located on all main deck sections. Electrical system incorporates emergency shut-off switch, GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) and incorporates all UL approved components.

Mobility

All platforms have been engineered for easy transport and mobility.

Rugged Construction

Each stand is constructed from light weight, high-strength aluminum and self-draining, anti-slip, anti-bounce safety tread.

Kick panels

Kick panels on bottom of handrails for safety and security from dropped or rolling tools of materials
falling from platform deck.

Fold Down Handrails
