We have all seen these or similar news headlines and now we can be better equipped to face these collapse rescue challenges. A Comprehensive System The system includes strut extensions and special baseplates designed to support a wide variety of contact points. Truly a system that will not stop growing, RescueStruts can be used in excavation collapse (trenches, mines), stabilizing crashed vehicles and reinforcing structures weakened by fire, earthquake or an exlosion. With a wide variety of Strut accessories, including our Danish Multi Brace, rescue teams can use RescueStrut components to build tripod cranes, and vertical wall bracing. The Go Anywhere System Paratech RescueStruts are truly a go anywhere system. Fire departments and civil defense agencies can move this equipment to a collapse site with relative ease. The operation is simple and safe. All pneumatic fittings are adaptable to your lifting bag systems and training is available from the world s leading training agencies.
