Ever mindful of customer needs and the environment, Goscor Power Products offers a high quality range of powerful, water-friendly Fire Fighters that are ideally suited to handle anything from small grass fires to larger forestry applications.

With over 30 years of experience in the development of Fire Fighting equipment, the company’s rugged and reliable low, medium and high pressure Fire Fighters are  designed and engineered to deliver important cost saving and safety benefits that enable farmers to realise a rapid return on their investment.

“We empathise with our farmers who are under extreme pressure having been dealt a double blow – the protracted weak economic climate as well as the severe drought that is gripping our country,” says Managing Director, Mark Bester. “In an effort to come to the aid of our farmers we have decided to introduce a low cost high pressure Fire Fighter. Delivering on quality and performance at an affordable price, this unit is kind on the farmer’s pocket and on the environment, boasting impressively low water consumption. Ideal for grass fires, the unit is powered by the new rugged and durable 7 HP Rato engine, a compact, efficient and economical power pack that does not compromise on performance. “In fact,” says Bester, “when it comes to performance this unit is more powerful than most of its closest rivals! Putting customers first is part of our value proposition and we trust that by offering farmers this unit at a reduced cost will assist them in protecting their livestock and crops.”

The Fire Fighters feature a Polyethylene 620 litre low profile water tank with a large 450mm diameter lid for fast filling and easy cleaning. Alongside struts on the tank ceiling and sides as well as baffles on the bottom of the tank interior, the step tank’s low centre of gravity limit water movement for enhanced vehicle stability during transportation. Corner struts facilitate safe and secure tie-down of the unit on the back of the vehicle. The black tank interior blocks UV rays to prevent algae build-up which can lead to pump blockage.

The Fire Fighters are also extremely versatile as their rugged pumps are equipped with stainless steel pistons and acid resistant seals making the units suitable for cattle dip and fruit tree spraying insecticides.

Showcased at Nampo 2016, the Fire Fighter range was extremely popular with the farming community. “Our low cost unit in particular attracted a lot of attention,” notes Bester who invites farmers to contact Goscor Power Products for a quote. “Our excellent show price specials still apply!”
