Product description

Strong Performance. Compact Design.

Built for professional operators who need a balance of working height, outreach, and transport practicality, the Oil&Steel Scorpion 18 provides a maximum working height of 17.8 meters, a 12.5-meter horizontal outreach, and a 300 kg basket load capacity.

Mounted on the Iveco Daily 35S14H (3.5t), the Scorpion 18 combines the comfort and safety of a modern Euro VIe truck with the efficiency of a robust aerial platform. Its electro-hydraulic aerial controls, hydraulic outriggers, and ±400° column rotation give operators flexible maneuverability, while the ±90° basket rotation ensures precise positioning.

The standard 1.4 x 1.1 x 0.7 m aluminum basket carries two operators, with alternative fiberglass basket options available for electrical work (including insulated versions up to 1 kV). Advanced safety features include a moment detection and limiting system, homing function, emergency descent systems (manual and electrical), anti-collision protections, and fully enclosed hoses and cables inside the booms.

In transport mode, the Scorpion 18 measures 7.35 m length, 2.275 m width, and 2.745 m height, making it compact and easy to move between job sites.

Standard features include PTO with automatic release, engine controls from basket and column, stainless-steel fasteners, anti-slip decking, and corrosion-resistant paint.
Optional extras range from automatic stabilization, Comfort Pack for the truck cabin (A/C, infotainment, ergonomic seat), fiberglass baskets, toolboxes, debris protection kits, remote connectivity, lighting and power supply kits, and customized painting or labels.

Certified to CE standards, the Scorpion 18 delivers safe, efficient, and adaptable performance—making it an ideal solution for municipalities, utilities, maintenance companies, and rental fleets.
