ROPS

Roll Over Protection Structure
SUPERIOR Manufacturing designs and manufactures Roll Over Protective Structures (ROPS) for 561/571/572/583/594 model pipelayers. We have an 
understanding of our customer’s needs and applications, producing ROPS that are fully engineered and tested to meet various codes and standards. 
Our engineering department is fully integrated with our capabilities including:

  • CADD – Computer Aided Design and Drafting modeling software
  • FEA – Finite Element Analysis stress and deflection software
  • Specification and functional development

Features Include:

  • Easy access for operators
  • Operator protection in the event of a roll over
  • No modifications to frame of draw works
  • Installation mounts are welded on
  • ROPS can also be installed on dozers converted to pipelayers, including Midwestern.
