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 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.

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.
