Little Giant Safety HyperLite 28 Ft. Type IAA Fiberglass Extension Ladder with CH V-Rung and Claw
Product Overview
The Little Giant Safety HyperLite 28 Ft. Type IAA Fiberglass Extension Ladder with CH V-Rung and Claw is a professional high-reach ladder designed for construction, utility, maintenance, roofing, and other elevated-access applications. It combines lightweight fiberglass construction with a specialized CH V-Rung and Claw top assembly to provide more secure positioning against poles, corners, and other suitable irregular surfaces.
With a Type IAA duty rating and 375-lb. maximum load capacity, this ladder is built for demanding professional applications where reach, load capacity, and specialized positioning are important.
Key Features
- 28-ft. HyperLite fiberglass extension ladder.
- Type IAA professional duty rating.
- 375-lb. maximum load capacity.
- Fiberglass rails provide electrical non-conductivity.
- CH V-Rung and Claw top assembly for specialized positioning.
- Lightweight HyperLite design helps simplify transportation and handling.
- Designed for professional construction and maintenance work.
- Suitable for utility and service applications.
- Useful for working against poles, corners, and other compatible surfaces.
- Suitable for indoor and outdoor high-reach applications.
CH V-Rung and Claw
The CH V-Rung and Claw provides specialized contact at the top of the ladder.
The V-shaped design can help position the ladder against suitable:
- Utility poles
- Rounded surfaces
- Building corners
- Posts
- Other irregular structures
The Claw provides additional contact with compatible surfaces to help keep the top of the ladder positioned during use.
These components are intended to assist with positioning and stability. They do not replace proper ladder setup, securing, or applicable workplace safety procedures.
HyperLite Fiberglass Construction
The HyperLite design is intended to make a large professional extension ladder more manageable to transport and position without sacrificing the durability required for demanding applications.
The fiberglass rails provide electrical non-conductivity, making this ladder suitable for many work environments where an aluminum ladder would not be appropriate.
However, fiberglass does not eliminate electrical hazards. Users must still maintain appropriate clearance from energized conductors, power lines, and electrical equipment.
Type IAA 375-lb. Duty Rating
The ladder is classified as Type IAA and has a maximum rated load of 375 lb.
The total load includes:
- User
- Clothing
- Tools
- Equipment
- Materials
The combined weight must remain within the 375-lb. limit.
28-Foot High-Reach Design
The 28-ft. size provides substantial vertical access for elevated work while remaining more compact than larger high-reach models.
Typical applications include:
- Utility service
- Construction
- Roofing access
- Building maintenance
- Facility maintenance
- Exterior repairs
- Pole-related work
- Installation
- Industrial maintenance
- General contracting
The actual safe working height depends on the ladder's setup, angle, extension, and manufacturer's approved operating requirements.

Dimensions and Weight
Exact measurements such as fully extended length, closed length, maximum working height, ladder width, rung spacing, and product weight should be verified against the manufacturer's specifications for the exact 28-ft. model.
The 28-ft. designation represents the ladder's nominal size, not the user's safe standing height or maximum working reach.
Recommended Applications
The specialized top assembly makes this ladder particularly useful for work where the upper end needs to be positioned against irregular surfaces.
Recommended applications include:
- Utility and service work
- Pole maintenance
- Construction
- Roofing
- Exterior building maintenance
- Facility service
- Industrial maintenance
- Installation work
- High-ceiling access
- General contracting
Main Benefits
Specialized Top Contact
The V-Rung and Claw provide additional positioning options when working around poles, corners, and other compatible structures.
High Load Capacity
The Type IAA 375-lb. rating provides substantial capacity for professional users carrying tools and materials within the specified limit.
Fiberglass Rails
Fiberglass construction provides electrical non-conductivity and is preferable to aluminum for many applications where electrical exposure is a concern.
High-Reach Access
The 28-ft. size provides substantial vertical reach for elevated work on buildings, structures, and equipment.
Manageable Construction
HyperLite construction is designed to make a large extension ladder easier to transport and position than many traditional high-reach models.
Proper Setup and Operation
Before use:
- Inspect the fiberglass rails, rungs, feet, extension locks, V-Rung, and Claw.
- Check the work area for electrical hazards and overhead obstructions.
- Place the ladder on a firm, stable surface.
- Position the V-Rung and Claw only against suitable surfaces.
- Set the ladder at the manufacturer's recommended angle.
- Make sure all extension locks are fully engaged.
- Secure the ladder when required by the work environment.
- Maintain three points of contact while climbing whenever practical.
- Keep the total user, tool, and material weight below 375 lb.
Never move, extend, retract, or reposition the ladder while someone is climbing it.
Electrical Safety
Fiberglass rails provide electrical non-conductivity, but users should never treat the ladder as protection against electrical contact.
Maintain appropriate clearance from:
- Power lines
- Energized conductors
- Electrical equipment
- Other electrical hazards
Regularly inspect the fiberglass for cracks, damage, contamination, or deterioration that could affect its insulating properties.
Safety Considerations
High-reach ladder work presents significant fall and handling hazards.
- Never exceed the 375-lb. maximum load.
- Inspect the ladder before every use.
- Do not use a damaged or modified ladder.
- Verify all extension locks are fully engaged.
- Use the V-Rung and Claw only as intended.
- Do not rely on the Claw or V-Rung as a substitute for proper ladder securing.
- Never place the ladder on an unstable or slippery surface.
- Keep the ladder away from electrical hazards.
- Never reposition the ladder while occupied.
- Keep the surrounding work area clear.
- Follow applicable ladder-safety requirements.
