Alpha Cart™

Key Advantages

The FAST Alpha Cart sets a new standard in design solutions for ground support equipment. Engineered with rotomolded construction for strength and durability, the Alpha Cart also has less weight to reduce wear and tear. Unlike traditional metal carts that quickly succumb to salt air deterioration, its corrosion-resistant polymer construction ensures exceptional longevity in coastal environments while maintaining structural integrity. The interlocking framework design allows for easy repairs or replacement and includes specific features that will enhance operator safety and performance.

Rigorous Daily Use

Rotomolded construction enhances strength, durability and corrosion resistance for years of rigorous daily use in any type of weather

Reduces Drag and Moisture

Ergonomically corrugated floor to reduce baggage drag and moves moisture out of the way

Interlocking Sections

Interlocking sections allow for quick repair and replacement, as well as simple breakdown and shipping

Lighter Weight

Rotomolded HDPE creates a lighter weight cart to reduce fuel use, and wear and tear

Running Gear

Uses common FAST running gear to deliver easy fleet connection and better inline towing
