Pre-Assembled Brush Truck Skids for Fast Deployment

KIMTEK’s truck skid units are purpose-built to slip into most short bed, long bed, and flatbed pickup trucks — no custom fabrication, no dedicated apparatus budget required. Every unit ships pre-assembled, so your department can go from delivery to deployment fast.

Built on a lightweight all-aluminum diamond plate chassis, each brush truck skid unit is engineered to hold up in the field conditions that destroy lesser equipment.

Whether you’re protecting a rural community with limited apparatus resources or building out a wildland fleet for a large agency, KIMTEK has a firefighting skid unit sized and configured for your operation.

FAQs

What is a brush truck skid unit?

A brush truck skid unit is a self-contained firefighting system — pump, water tank, hose, and reel — that slips into a pickup bed to turn a standard truck into a wildland fire apparatus.

KIMTEK skid units ship pre-assembled and fit most short bed, long bed, and flatbed trucks, with no custom fabrication required.

What size firefighting skid unit do I need?

The right firefighting skid unit size depends on your operation. KIMTEK offers 125, 160, 200, and 300 gallon capacities. The 125 and 160 gallon units suit initial attack and patrol work where mobility and weight matter most, while the 200 and 300 gallon units serve extended operations that need more water on scene.

What’s the difference between the 300 Series and 400 Series skid units?

The KIMTEK 300 Series uses high pressure pumps for standard wildland suppression at a cost-effective price, while the 400 Series steps up to a CAT ultra high pressure (UHP) system for greater reach, penetration, and compressed air foam system (CAFS) capability. Choose the 300 Series for everyday brush firefighting and the 400 Series when your operation demands maximum suppression power.

Will a KIMTEK fire skid unit fit my truck?

KIMTEK brush truck skid units fit most full-size short bed, long bed, and flatbed pickups, and every unit ships pre-assembled for fast deployment. Before ordering, use our Fit Guide and Weight Chart to confirm your truck’s bed size and payload match your chosen unit.

How much does a KIMTEK brush truck skid unit cost?

KIMTEK firefighting skid units start at $10,750 for a 125 gallon 300 Series high pressure unit and range up to $15,750 for a 200 gallon 400 Series ultra high pressure unit. Pricing varies by tank capacity, pump configuration, and optional upgrades like electric reels, foam systems, and storage.
