The "Original Air Chisel" designed for rescue
This is the “original" AIR CHISEL, designed and manufactured to the exacting standards of the Emergency Squad Training Institute. It is designed for rescue professionals, as the most powerful air hammer in it's class, combining compact size, reliability, quick set-up and ease of operation. This Air Cutting Gun Set is Made in America.
The "C-10 "ORIGINAL RESCUE AIR CUTTING GUN SET" is designed to drive pins, rapidly cut heavy metal including quarter inch (1/4”) mild steel plate, three quarter inch (3/4”) mild steel bolts, automobile safety door lock bolts, vehicle door posts, automobile roofs, vehicle and aircraft seat brackets, fiberglass, carbon fiber, aluminum, metal buildings, metal roofing, sheet metal ducts, wood, stone, and concrete in a matter of seconds. The C-10 AIR CUTTING GUN has the highest operating pressure combined with the lowest air consumption of any air hammer in the industry. The "Original Air Cutting Gun" is often copied, but it's performance is never duplicated.
The specially designed factory preset single stage high pressure air regulator requires absolutely no adjustment, eliminating the possibility of the operator selecting the wrong pressure and injuring personnel or damaging the regulator or the air cutting gun. It is designed to operate on a constant air flow rate in excess of 4 C.F.M., while operating from any air cylinder equipped with a C.G.A. valve, with a pressure range from 400 PSI to 5,500 PSI without the need for any adjustment or tools. This heavy duty high pressure regulator is equipped with a safety relief valve, meeting or exceeding both OSHA 1910.169 and ASME 1968 safety standards. The gauge is protected by a shock absorbing rubber guard, and an exclusive hand tight nut provides rapid attachment of the regulator to the air cylinder without the need for easily lost wrenches or other tools.
All air regulator components are designed to Emergency Squad Training Institute's standards to ensure rapid setup, high strength, and years of reliable trouble free service backed up by an unprecedented full seven year warranty on the regulator.
