Engine

The X-12 engine is featured here, but HME offers the full spectrum on Cummins engines. Pushing the boundaries of how power is made, Cummins delivers the right technology for fire service applications at the right time. With horsepower ratings of 330 to 605 and torque ratings of 1000 to 1850, we have the Cummins power options to get you to and from the fire ground and perform while there.

Front Suspension

from Reyco Granning is a complete assembly that offers less unsprung mass, dynamic camber and easy access to service points. The STEERTEK NXT from Hendrickson is a more economical option as a fabricated axle offering torsional stiffness to accommodate higher brake torque requirements and a softer spring rate enabling greater travel and comfort.

Safety System

Firefighters navigate enough risk; their fire apparatus shouldn’t add to the challenges. HME cab/chassis consists of a 15-point safety system. Collision Mitigation/Avoidance, Clean Cab, Ease of Use and Entry/Egress. We deliver on them all - to Protect Those That Protect Us.

Pump Modules

HME is pump agnostic. We will build whatever pump module you need with Hale, Waterous or Darley at the core. Off the shelf pump module options can also be specified – whatever aligns with your department or fleet management needs.

Body Design

When we discuss fasteners in a pre-construction meeting - and HME’s use of a bolting system that meets aircraft standards – the dialog is often light. When body repairs are needed due to a mishap, we – That’s Awesome.

Low Hosebed Height

HME’s Urban Attack engine is configured for high call volume departments. The low hosebed height and scalloped dividers take work out of laying in a line and repacking the hose.
