Confident lifting at elevated reach.
The DPM2-52DU is a telescopic articulating insulated Category “C” 46kV aerial lift offering 59 feet of working height on a 22,000 GVWR mid-size chassis—delivering big-truck reach in a more compact footprint. Designed for material-handling applications, it features a jib and winch system rated for up to 1,000 pounds, with 320° rotation and ten locking positions for precise load placement. Stability comes from a mid-mount A-frame combined with rear modified A-frame outriggers, while a 22″ basket elevator provides added vertical reach. New protective options include over-stow safeguards for both upper and lower booms and limited aerial rotation to prevent excessive hydraulic force. This build features a Ford F550 Diesel 4×4 chassis (22,000 GVWR, 7,500 GAWR front axle, 108″ CA) with a Dakota 150″ aluminum body, engineered for reliable performance in demanding applications.
Big time reach. Mid-size chassis. Under CDL advantage.
The DPM2-52DU is part of Dur-A-Lift’s DPM2 series—a family of telescopic articulating bucket trucks built for maximum versatility in the field. This series offers both material-handling capabilities and double-person baskets, with working heights ranging from 43 to 59 feet, making it a reliable choice for a wide variety of applications.
Operators can choose the setup that works best for their needs, with options including fiberglass or aluminum baskets, insulated or non-insulated designs, and multiple chassis, body, and tailshelf configurations.
A rotating, top-mounted jib paired with a powerful winch adds another level of productivity, allowing you to lift and position materials with precision while keeping your crew focused on the task at hand. It’s all part of what makes the DPM2 series a trusted solution—built for the way you work, and built to keep you working efficiently.
