Based out of Duncan, Oklahoma, WW Builders Inc. has been a stalwart construction services firm for over 30 years, offering general building, earthworks, concrete, plumbing and roofing. And they have now added a new crane that will help with many of their construction applications \u2014 a Tadano PM 38525 SP + J813.20 (38.5 tonne-meter knuckle boom crane and jib). WW Builders Inc. worked with Tadano distributor BTE Body Company, Inc. to find the perfect solution for lifting items at distance and getting materials moved on and off jobsites. Scott Fowler, WW Builders Inc. Project Executive, shares his enthusiasm for their new crane, “Everyone knows the quality of Tadano machines, and this new knuckle boom and truck setup will be a great fit for our project work throughout the region. We loved the functionality and controls of the crane, the horizontal and vertical reach, the activations on the boom for tools and the Mack chassis. Plus, the service from both BTE Body and Tadano has already been excellent.”<\/p>\n\n\n

WW Builders Inc. had never owned a knuckle boom crane before, but they are very excited for the potential it has to be a problem solver on several building applications. This new Tadano PM 38.5 SP series crane will begin its work in Arkansas, performing materials handling on an important Air Force Base project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOur customers expect reliability, capability, and support after the sale,\u201d said Jeremy Rendon, Regional Equipment Salesman at BTE Body Company, Inc. \u201cTadano\u2019s expanding parts and service infrastructure, combined with the strength of the PM product line, gives us confidence that we are putting our name behind equipment that will perform in the field. We are very excited for the wonderful fit with this crane and WW Builders Inc.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The PM 38.5 SP Series belongs to the Gold line of knuckle boom cranes, designed to provide outstanding lifting capacity while maintaining compact dimensions and relatively low weight for its class. Built with a robust rack-and-pinion slewing system, it guarantees durability and dependable operation even under heavy-duty use. Available with up to eight hydraulic extensions, the PM 38.5 SP achieves significant outreach in standard configurations. For even greater versatility, jib versions with up to five extensions and negative angles of 20\u00b0 are available, further expanding both horizontal and vertical working range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Director of Sales PM Group at Tadano, Tony Hampton, adds, \u201cThis crane represents more than equipment \u2014 it represents alignment and strong partnership. WW Builders Inc. is a trusted construction name in their region, and the 38.5 SP crane and jib will be great for their array of services. And BTE Body is known for their service and aligning clients with elite equipment. Tadano is very excited to partner with both companies to help everyone achieve their goals.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","news_topics":[],"class_list":["post-29073","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
