EXTRICATION TOOLS
RS-10 5 TON EXTRICATOR SET
The RS-10 is a complete extrication toolset that allows you to accomplish 99% of your vehicle extrication and rescue needs. It is the ideal rescue tool for automobile, industrial, aircraft, farm extrication, structure collapse, and construction releases. This compact rescue tool set has a shipping weight of 155 lbs and comes in a 16 gauge steel storage box with a 2” deep small tool tray, two lockable latches, and large heavy-duty folding handles on each end.
The RS-10 Rescue Tool Set is used in vehicle extrication to open damaged car doors and raise the clutch and brake pedals using the hydraulic spreader wedge. The hydraulic straight ram with adapters is used to raise the dashboard, move seats, push the firewall, raise the roof, and move objects to permit the victim's extrication.
The 2-ton cable Come-A-Long and Rescue Chain Set are combined to pull seats, doors, steering columns, brake and clutch pedals, dashboards, and body panels out of the way. This creates 3-door cars out of 2-door vehicles, provides rapid access to patients, and allows easy removal of patients from the rear seat of two-door cars.
“The Original EXTRICATOR® RS-10 Rescue Tool Set” was designed in 1964 to provide first responders with tools for removing the vehicle from around the patient. This tried-and-true rescue set has recently been completely redesigned and upgraded to provide high-efficiency pumps, more metal-moving power, faster operation, and easier maintenance.
SPREADERS
The new features include redesigned, heavy-duty, high-speed H2T steel pumps providing three times faster tool operation and improved reliability in demanding rescue applications. New pump features include vertical or horizontal pump operation, a more extensive hydraulic fluid reservoir, a high-flow piston, and new high-flow, hydraulic quick couplings to provide more rapid tool operation with fewer pump strokes. The hydraulic reservoir fill port has been relocated to the top of the reservoir for easy inspection and refilling without unique filling stands. An internal pressure relief valve in the pump provides overload protection and complies with OSHA, ANSI, and ASME safety standards.
The larger hydraulic fluid control valve has been redesigned for easy operation while wearing gloves. A more extended pump handle with a larger shaft and ergonomic grip has been incorporated into the new design to provide better stability, grip, and ease of operation. Our new pump is designed to be used horizontally or vertically with the hose pointed downward. The ram extension tubes have been improved with knurled surfaces to provide better grip in wet conditions or while wearing gloves. The ram and extension tube capacities have been increased to 5 tons.
The redesigned wedge incorporates a new internal spring design to rapidly retract the wedge in any position. The Wedge combines compact size, lightweight, rapid opening and closing, and heavy-duty spreading capability in a 3.75 lb. tool with 3/8" closed jaws that open to 4" and a surface contact area over 3 sq. in. per jaw, providing a massive 2,000 lbs. of spreading force at the closed tips.
The Spreader has been completely redesigned with a fast-acting internal retraction spring in the cylinder. The redesigned arms have a closed thickness of 5/8" and an opening of 11". The arms combine over 6 sq. of surface contact area per jaw with over 2,000 lbs. of spreading force at the closed tips. The spreading force increases as the jaws are opened. A new ergonomic handle has been added to the spreader for easier carrying, placement, and better tool control.
The recently updated pumps, spreader, and wedge have an unprecedented lifetime warranty against material and workmanship defects.
