SKED-EVAC® TRIPOD

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 on handling 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. This tripod allows you to bring the patient in a stretcher completely out of the hole when at full extension. It is rated to handle an NFPA rescue load.

✔   Included with the tripod is a chain that 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 the most popular winches.

Disclaimer: Skedco strongly recommends against attaching “change of direction” pulleys to the Sked-Evac's feet or legs or any other tripod as pulling laterally against unsecured tripod legs is dangerous and could lead to injury or death.
