Skyjack has unveiled the SJ86 T telescopic boom, as well as a charitable campaign to mark the company’s 30th business anniversary, at Intermat, the triennial exhibition for the construction and material industries, held in Paris, France.
“When our customers expressed the need for a boom with higher reach and greater capacity, we listened,” said Skyjack President Brad Boehler. “It’s an exciting time — we’re very pleased to be launching a new telescopic product, the SJ86 T, which will give Skyjack customers many new levels of opportunity.”
The new SJ86 T telescopic boom with jib helps meet increasing customer demand in the rental industry with its higher capacity and greater reach. The latest model boasts a working height of 28.21 m and horizontal outreach of 23.42 m. The jib has a range of +65 degrees to -60 degrees and features an optimized design that improve its strength.

30 FOR 30 PARTNERS
Skyjack is using Intermat to kick off celebrations in Europe surrounding the company’s 30th business anniversary. As part of the celebrations, Skyjack is launching 30 FOR 30 PARTNERS, a campaign to search for 30 worth while or charitable projects from across the world that would benefit from the use of a Skyjack machine or, potentially, some other kind of support, such as parts, supplies or repairs. The machines, plus the assistance, would be supplied through Skyjack’s customers, with Skyjack covering the costs of up to approximately €1,700 per project.
“As one of the world’s leading suppliers of access equipment, we are grateful that our customers, communities and the industry have supported us consistently throughout the years, allowing us to get where we are today,” Boehler said. “As such, we want to use Skyjack’s 30th anniversary to give something back. And the best way we could think to do this is via the products and the customers that mean so much to us.”

Full house
In addition to revealing its new telescopic boom, Skyjack also showcased two vertical mast platforms — the SJ12 and the SJ16. These popular models both boast a lightweight design that provides operators with low ground pressure and floor loading, a zero-degree inside turning radius and a traversing platform for added reach.
The world’s best-selling electric scissor lift, the SJIII 3219, was also on display at the show — it has a working height of 7.79 m, 30% grade-ability and an overall capacity of 227 kg. The machines in this class are all able to work in the tightest of spaces, making them the world’s top-selling aerial work platforms.
Exhibiting alongside the SJIII 3219 was the SJIII 3226; this electric scissor lift is extremely quiet, produces zero emissions and boasts robust and reliable design features that offer customers an easy to service, low maintenance, compact and versatile package.
From its articulating boom line, Skyjack showed the range-topping SJ63 AJ; with a unique open knuckle riser design for improved visibility and dual lifting cylinders that provide superior comfort and stability, Skyjack’s SJ63 AJ features a working height of 21.38 m and a 227 kg platform capacity.
Finally, Skyjack also exhibited the the SJ6832 RTE from its rough-terrain scissor lift line, the only machine in its category to offer a 45% grade-ability and four-wheel drive as standard.
