Sked-Evac Tripod, En 795 Certified
The Sked-Evac Tripod extends to ten feet high at the three anchors which are
available to clip into. Each of the anchors is anodized red for easy
identification, and all are equally well centered to handle a load. The anchors,
header and legs are interconnected with stainless steel bolts to provide maximum
strength. The header limits the distance the legs can spread. When at full
extension this tripod allows you to bring the patient in a stretcher completely
out of the hole. It is rated to handle an NFPA rescue load. Included with the
tripod is a chain which passes through the feet to provide greater strength and
stability. The chain will not degrade in acids or chemicals like nylon straps or
ropes. The legs are adjustable in 5" increments, and Skedco provides safe
working load data for each tripod height on each tripod. Brackets are available
for mounting most popular winches. Made in USA.
Disclaimer: Skedco strongly recommends against attaching "change of direction"
pulleys to the feet or legs of the Sked-Evac or any other tripod as pulling
laterally against unsecured tripod legs is dangerous and could lead to injury or
death.
