National Fire Fighter offers an extensive range of skid units to anchor your firefighting arsenal. Mobile attack skid units give you everything you need to keep the flames under control in a compact, easily adjustable setup that can be mounted to nearly any vehicle or UTV.
Each unit is built and engineered with robust materials and quality workmanship to ensure reliable operation when you’re in the field. Our units require minimal maintenance, include a high-pressure, low-volume pump to conserve water, and are constructed with the highest quality components to ensure you’re ready when things get heated. We build top mounts, end mounts, hybrid mounts and ATV/UTV units to fit within your footprint. Don’t see what you’re looking for here? Call us to discuss your specific needs.
Top Mount Skid Unit
All equipment is placed on top of the tank with top mount slip-ons. The layout is excellent for small slip-ons and keeps the hardware up in a confined space, safe from other items sharing the truck bed. A real space saver unit.
Typical Unit Equipment:
Tank:
- ½” polypropylene tank baffled to NFPA specifications with corners welded inside and out and stainless steel flanges
- Fully removable tank top for easy access
- 3" wide site gauge level window
- Decision Points: tank size, foam cell, mounting pad
- Capacities from 50-1000 gallons
- 3-year warranty
Control Panels: Brushed aluminum control panel. Standard enclosed panels have a 3" 0-600 PSI liquid filled gauge, 50 amp circuit breaker, low pressure cut out switch, primer valve, night operation light and rain overhang.
Pumps:
Choose from several high pressure pump options for longer spray and strength to push water up slopes
Plumbing:
- Welded stainless steel plumbing
- High-pressure hose for flexibility, durability and ease of repair in the field
- Stainless steel flanges
Craftsmanship:
- Expert design
- Precision machining and welding
- Quick turn-around
End Mount Skid Unit
With end-mount slip-ons the controls, pump and hose are placed at the rear of the vehicle. This type of layout is typical of large slip-ons where placing hardware on top of the tank would make the equipment difficult to reach.
Typical Unit Equipment:
Tank:
- ½” polypropylene tank baffled to NFPA specifications with corners welded inside and out and stainless steel flanges
- Fully removable tank top for easy access
- 3" wide site gauge level window
- Decision Points: tank size, foam cell, mounting pad
- Capacities from 50-1000 gallons
- 3-year warranty
Skid:
All aluminum for reduced weight to strength ratio - steel is available
Control Panels: Brushed aluminum control panel. Standard enclosed panels have a 3" 0-600 PSI liquid filled gauge, 50 amp circuit breaker, low pressure cut out switch, primer valve, night operation light and rain overhang.
Pumps:
Choose from several high pressure pump options for longer spray and strength to push water up slopes
Plumbing:
- Welded stainless steel plumbing
- High-pressure hose for flexibility, durability and ease of repair in the field
- Stainless steel flanges
Craftsmanship:
- Expert design
- Precision machining and welding
- Quick turn-around
Hybrid Skid Unit
Where height and space allow, your slip-on can place hardware both on top of the tank and at the end of the tank to make a layout that works best for your truck and needs.
With the hose reel placed on top of the tank the hose can serve either side of the truck. Having the pump and controls placed at the end of the slip-on keeps these items within easy reach.
Typical Unit Equipment:
Tank:
- ½” polypropylene tank baffled to NFPA specifications with corners welded inside and out and stainless steel flanges
- Fully removable tank top for easy access
- 3" wide site gauge level window
- Decision Points: tank size, foam cell, mounting pad
