Rapid Intervention Bag - an absolutely essential equipment at operations where fire fighters are wearing a SCBA.
For rapid intervention teams, it developed to a vital tool to transport all required equipment potentially needed for rescue of fire fighters or other people in case of emergency.
GEARBAG PRO Rapid Intervention Bag goes beyond these demands! Spacious capacity allows for carrying extended equipment, depending on individual contingency plan of any fire brigade.
Main compartment, capacity of approx. 55 liters, is designed for storage of a whole SCBA along with additional equipment that can be stowed in inlying net pockets.
A mounting for fire axe (or Halligan tool) is located on the bag’s exterior.
The ultrafast accessible mask compartment provides space for everything that is needed for establishing an ensured breathing air supply: respirator mask, regulator and handwheel of valve of the SCBA. Together at one location inside the bag.
Bag is completely padded to protect your SCBA equipment.
Innovative feature of the GEARBAG PRO is the integrated belt system, that allows for secure mounting of bag on victim and therefore also for secured breathing air supply throughout entire rescue operation.
Robust trolley system of the bag in combination with aluminum die-cast wheels and gliding bars at bottom enable rapid invention team to rush towards the victim without having to carry the bag, but only pulling behind. Even if they have to overcome stairs!
The KOMBI Rope Bag can also be attached by clip buckles to integrate a rescue rope.
These clever features considerably unburden rapid intervention teams whilst in action and allow them to concentrate on task. They are rid of the equipment’s weight and have their hands free.
A detachable hook-and-loop strip for individual labeling is included to be attached to the bag’s top.
