Used Firestone Arff

Overview

ARFF (Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting) trucks are specialized fire apparatus designed for rapid response to aircraft incidents. They combine high-capacity pumps, foam and dry chemical systems, high-reaching monitors, and reinforced chassis to suppress jet fuel fires and protect runways. ARFF units prioritize flow rate, agent compatibility and reliability under extreme conditions for airport safety and emergency services.

FAQ

What should I inspect when buying a used ARFF vehicle?

Check pump and monitor flow rates, foam proportioning and agent compatibility, chassis condition, engine hours, corrosion in tanks and piping, service records, and whether it meets NFPA 414/ICAO category requirements for your airport.

How do I arrange shipping for an ARFF truck?

Use heavy-haul transport experienced with fire apparatus. Drain and clean tanks, secure or remove monitors and antennas, confirm dimensions/weight for permits, and declare residual foam agents—hazardous-material rules may apply for sea or road transit.

What maintenance schedule is typical for ARFF trucks?

Daily operational checks, weekly pump and monitor function tests, regular foam-system flushing and agent replacement schedules, hose and valve pressure testing, corrosion inspections, battery and engine servicing, plus annual comprehensive inspections by an ARFF technician.
