Gladiator 911  |  Firefighter PPE Washer

You already know that washing your gear after a fire is one of the most important things you can do to minimize exposure to harmful carcinogens. The Gladiator 911 PPE Washer by Arnold Machine is designed to make the task of cleaning helmets, tools, boots, gloves and SCBA gear simple, thorough and efficient. 

While making an industrial washer is second nature to us, we’ve partnered with a specialized chemist and environmental lab for optimal cleaning of contaminants. We are also working with gear manufacturers for ensured longevity of materials.

USA Made

Our washers are engineered and manufactured at our facility in Tiffin, Ohio. All of the major components (heater, pump and drive) are USA made products. Each one is made from 304-stainless steel and engineered to last a lifetime. We offer a lifetime guarantee on the washer shell and a two-year warranty on all major components. See below for more information on our warranty.
