DESCRIPTION

Dragon Handle System

This innovative extraction system is constructed of 1 in. Tech Tape with a tensile strength of 4200 lb, outperforming 1 in. military spec webbing not only in strength but also in flexibility, knot-ability and durability. Two weather-proof flexible handles offer additional grip and comfort to the rescuer. The floating black bull ring provides adjustable attachment point configurations. Also includes a Black Omega, non-locking "D" carabiner rated for 31kN (6968.8 lb) 

Designed to Allow the Rescuer to:

  • Maintain engagement with threat
  • Utilize improved body mechanics by maintaining an anatomically correct posture for rapidly extracting greater weight
  • Maintain natural postures & positions that preclude shifting of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that either obviates that equipment or exposes additional unprotected body regions
  • Decrease manpower needs in "zeroed in" locations

More rapid extraction translates into more rapid entry into the tiered system of TCCC treatment modalities.
