SAR Alpine Stretcher
01 Overview
The SAR Alpine Stretcher is offered in two options the Civilian rescue option and the mountain rescue option.
The Alpine stretcher folds in half so that it can be carried on the back of one person.It is also stored in the bag in this position. If necessary it can be split in half and each half carried separately for longer treks..
The Mountain Rescue Option has a Skid Pan underneath to protect the casualty over stony ground. It also makes it easier to sledge over snowy ground.
Both the Mountain Rescue option and the civilian rescue option come with a lifting sling - 1.2m for the civilian rescue option and 2.0m for the mountain rescue option.
Carry handles come as standard with the mountain rescue option but need to be bought as an optional extra with the civilian rescue option.
The two main vertical lifting loops are positioned at the shoulder which provides a true vertical lifting position for the casualty.
Both options are supplied with a carry bag, which incorporates an outside pocket for inspection records.
Both options can be fitted to the SAR stretcher wheel, which must be ordered separately.
