Military models are welded entirely of .75" (1.9cm) and .375" (10mm) stainless steel (no flat straps that easily bend). Sand blasted finish. Military models include wire basket and strap kit. Meets military specifications and a 2,500 lbs. (1136kg) test load. All types can be supplied with plastic coating to resist corrosion. Weight standard models 33 lbs. (15kg), military models 38 lbs. (17.3kg). Made in USA.
For many years the accepted method for securing a patient in a litter was improvised internal and external lashings using one-inch tubular web. Critical patient-packaging time could be lost and often the finished lashing was either too tight or too loose. Looking for a quicker and more secure way, we developed our Patient Tie-In System after testing a variety of prototypes in CMC Rescue School classes.
Featuring StratLoad™ Attachment Points. A complete re-thinking of the classic Stokes military-style litters, our Rescue Litter features a full one-inch diameter top rail to make the litter easier to handle when carried for extended periods. Durathene™ netting eliminates cuts and scrapes caused by broken wires. Back support is molded, highdensity polyethylene for greater durability.
Tapered with StratLoad™ Attachment Points. Amazingly strong and light, lift our ultra-lightweight Titanium Litter with one hand and you’ll have to have one. Built to the same specifications and dimensions as our stainless litters, the titanium model is lighter by 18 pounds. Like the stainless steel models, the titanium models have Durathene™ netting, molded high-density polyethylene back support and come with four litter straps.
Our Litter Shield attaches to a mount on the litter rail that allows the shield to pivot and nest inside the litter. A quick release pin allows the shield to be completely removed if necessary. The lower profile makes storage easier, but does not provide as much clearance for the patient’s face as the Litter Shield Plus (see below). Each shield requires a railing clamp.
Faster to use than tying a harness out of web, the Low-Angle Litter Harness fits on the outside of the litter, delivering greater stability than connecting carabiners directly to the railing. Made of our 1-3/4 in (44 mm) flat web with a tensile strength of 44.5 kN (10,000 lbf), the center strap provides an adjustable backup to the other legs. The two outside straps attach just below the railing to the cross bar on the sides of the litter.
Designed for high-angle rescues where minimum weight is important, such as backcountry rescues or air operations, this harness has legs that adjust with a cam buckle for easily placing the patient in the most comfortable position. Color-coded legs aid fast set-up. The system ropes can be attached directly to the 54 kN (12,139 lbf) Delta Quick Link (included) or connected in with carabiners. A 10-ft (3-m) 12.5 mm tender line and nylon storage bag are included. Carabiners not included.
Litter for confined spaces. Victim can be transported hoizontally, vertically, or at an angle. Litter has complete body harness in it to secure the victim. Straps are adjustable with self-locking DoubleBack buckles. Flexible bottom helps ensure good sliding. Foam padding provides comfort for the victims back. Rigid stays can be removed to reduce bulk when accessing accident site. Dimensions: 190x50x5cm Weight: 11.50kg
