2018 KME Interface Pumper

Some departments want a short, tight package with a two-stage, high-pressure pump. Others want larger pumps and structural ladders. Everyone wants a unit that can handle the off-road environment. That kind of truck doesnt come about by accident. And KME knows its a little more complicated than just putting your standard package on a 4x4 chassis and calling it an interface.

KME has more flexibility and more range than any other manufacturer. Our apparatus can carry up to 750 gallon in the shortest wheelbase possible. Our engineers have found places for structural ladders and large hose loads.

Our bodies are designed on a heavy-duty subframe from there, we use spring mounts to keep the stress at the wheels from transferring into the body. Our water tanks and tank mounts are reinforced to provide extra strength and stress isolation. In addition, we test our units using our on-site tilt table, off-center twist equipment.

KME has built and delivered dozens of specialty units that meet the requirements of some of the premier wildland firefighting agencies. We have packages that meet the Forest Services model 326/346/448 specifications. The BLMs model 667 specifications, and CALFIRE model 34 specifications.
